  1. Its American Thanksgiving. The whole country is off. Tradition to have sporting events during the day.
  2. I unfortunately fell down a flat earth worm hole a while back so have some info on their thought. Planes don't go high enough to see is the argument. Radar is rigged to make planes fly in circles to make the earth appear as a ball. Also the fact that planes fly with their noses up is proof that the earth is flat. If the earth were a ball like the "lies" that are spread, planes would fly with their noses pointed down, otherwise, they would fly right off the earth. Yes, that is some of the "logic" they spew. Basically after getting in deep enough of the youtube video, and you follow the dots, it comes down to a creationist argument. If the earth is flat, it doesn't rotate around the sun (the sun and the planets rotate around the top of the flat earth), and the earth can once again become the centre of the universe,.
  3. What I found funny when reading the whole article is he had a go fund me page for his rocket that only raised a few hundred bucks. Then after suddenly declaring the flat earth theory reasonable, did a go fund me page for his rocket to prove it, and has now raised thousands. Smart bugger.

  5. Not sure why you want to harp on Bluto so hard about this. As far as fans from other teams posting here, Bluto has always been one of the better ones and any back and forth has been IMO friendly banter on his part. And as far as support of the Argos go, why criticize Bluto about it when he is a Torontonian who actually supports the team. I have no time for trolls and people who come here for that sole purpose, but this board could be a better place if there was more commentary and opinions from fans of other teams. Their perspective can be interesting at times.
  6. Was just an MBB group, contest and prizes furnished by TSN.
  7. The prize is a $50 Bomber store gift certificate. In the case of a tie, it will be split.
  8. Fixed. Forgot to advance the weeks displayed in the standings tab
  9. With only the Grey Cup left, @bearpants is guaranteed a win, with the @the watcher a chance to tie. Well done, both of you. Picks must be in by Sunday @ 5 PM
  10. Unjustly? Maybe my insatiable hatred comment was a little dramatic but here is four pages down memory lane of your thoughts on Enstrom. You be the judge how it comes across. You certainly rarely pass up the chance to criticize whenever his name comes up http://morningbigblue.com/community/search/?&q=Enstrom&page=1&author=kelownabomberfan
  11. It is actually a general thread for any random CFL discussion topic or piece of news during the playoffs that doesn't necessarily need its own thread. We had one for the regular season, one for the playoffs, and will for the off season as well. The Medlock report / statement broke during the playoffs, so it is fair game. That tweet is actually the very first post in this thread.
  12. I know you have an insatiable hate for Enstrom but why do you want to get rid of Lowry?
  13. Lindholms deal @ 5.2 includes these 2 years of RFA years that Trouba is playing out. Trouba got paid$3M per for those 2 years. So if you are signing Trouba to the same term as Hampus (6 years), and want to match that deal you are going to pay more because there will be more UFA years included in it. So I think you need to up that to $7M minimum if you want him to sign long term (6+). Or you go 4 years @ 6M which would pretty much match the Lindholm deal and give him back the $4M he lost out on these past two years playing for $3M instead of $5M. But like you said, and have to ask yourself, if he was willing to sign for that kind of money, that deal would have been done two years ago. He either wants more money or doesn't want to be in Winnipeg long term, or both.
  14. Looks like it was closed by mistake. Poll is open again.
  15. Picks need to be in by Sunday @ 12PM
  16. Lots of free places you can upload then they will give you a link. This is the first that came up in search http://tinypic.com/
  17. UPdate was posted in this threads. At 26.5k
  18. 2 1/2 more days for sales. If the 1,000 tickets a day stays true, and even picks up as we get closer to game day, good chance we get close to 30k,
  19. Two days out and the forecast for Sunday looks to be -3 with little to no wind. Shaping up to be a beautiful day for football. Lets get those tickets sold!
  20. Westwood seems to be getting more and more "preachy" the longer he is on the air. The chemistry between him and Toth does not seem to be materializing. I put a lot of this on Toth. He is supposed to be the polished / educated broadcaster and host. Others in that role seemed to manage the show much better. There are too many times where Toth starts giving his opinion on things that he comes across too wishy washy and won’t really commit to what he is saying. Either what he says sounds like he put about 2 seconds of thought into it and is the exact same comment you would hear from a buddy on the weekend.
  21. BTW, the ridiculous amounts of commercials on CJOB is how we moved over to TSN1290 on the drive to and from the games in the first place. We would flip over to TSN1290 during the commercials and at some point just decided to stay there.
  22. CJOB just has too many commercials in and out of the broadcast for it to have any flow. Not a huge Bauming fan either, but would rather listen to Westwood and Walby than Brown. CJOB doesn't have a whole lot to offer once Irving retires. TSN has access to the whole TV coverage crew and related people.
