Agreed. The best example of an 'any given Sunday' team in the league right now. They are still a pretty decent team. But yeah, MBT throws for a million yards and scores 10 points.

After seeing the way they have managed the OL for the past 6 - 8 years, I'm inclined to agree with you.

The left in Canada...started caring...less than 10 years ago.

They probably do. But US elections are decided by half a dozen or so swing states, the rest are entrenched.

Agreed. So have the feds, so has every provincial government. Then there are other factors beyond any government's control. It's insane how quickly grain and oil seed prices have doubled and even tripled.

So, the cost of living Alberta is rising faster than in other parts of the country? The United States population is still around 60% white. The Republican party has issues, but I don't think that's one of them.

They always had good fries and an ice cream bar, even when everything else sucked

No need to really be nimble. BLM wasn't, ZC isn't.

Hammy has a good front. They were good in the Grey Cup too. They cannot be taken lightly

Do We NEED to Fix our D? How? 10 Questions
See, I think it's somewhat good that that didn't happen. In the playoffs, they could meet an underdog opponent with a solid gameplan and nothing to lose. It's better that they had that game yesterday.

Definitely. Turnovers have been coming more the front 7.

I have not watched the game at all. Was the OL play as bad as it sounds?

A Richie Hall D requires consistent pressure. Last year, they had more outstanding talent in the backfield, to make up for lapses in pressure.

Brits are filing past the coffin all night. Five miles of shuffling, then walk home or to your vehicle through the London fog. It's a queue extravaganza

May as well add Good Friday and maybe Louis Riel day to your list. Yep, no sense being a hypocrite and skipping the Queen's mourning day. 😁😁

Sounds good. Seriously, what a useless exercise.

Yes, those were additional factors. The west was also being impacted by American traders entering the mostly uncontrolled territory.

Yes. You've hit on one of my 'pet topics.' 1. This was the Canadian government's primary incentive for building a railroad from coast to coast and working towards Confederation. They were concerned about the American military might, and some bitter feelings that might still linger, from slavery and the Civil War. Canada supported the Underground Railroad, but Canada was a British colony, and Britain was the largest buyer of American cotton. And make no mistake, Canada would have benefitted from this, due to Britain's mercantile policies with its colonies. In the eyes of many Americans, the British colonists on their northern flank...were hypocrites. 2. And yes, many Canadians resented the escaped slaves, and most of them never got more than menial jobs. But I'd bet almost any job was better than the brutality of a southern plantation.
