  1. Nice to see guys like Bobby Dyce get promoted
  2. And boom goes the dynamite
  3. JBR (who seems to know a thing or three about OL play) was vocally unimpressed by the Picard signing. Apart from Goossen who was obviously judged as unready to start, we had no real option at center other than looking for an import. Picard was worth a shot and I still maintain that he cannot be properly assessed until the rest of the line starts playing well. He's part of 'the rest' He's probably going to wind up on his rear end whenever he's 1 on 1 with a half-decent DT.

  5. Who expected a Hamilton returner to stand like a statue and watch the ball bounce off his helmet?
  6. Harper seems to be zeroing in on swing ridings. The same way Obama focussed on key electoral vote States during his last campaign.
  7. The Israeli - Palestinian conflict: I don't get how anyone can be pro either side in that hornet's nest. 0.02
  8. Decent game...we have hope with Marve
  9. It's six of one and a billion dozen of the other. And 60% of the time it's going to work every time
  10. Cool. I'm done
  11. Maybe they do. But the fact that Blue Cross covers it and the Mayo Clinic acknowledges that it can be effective says something. I waded into this because I know people who have definitely been helped by homeopathy. For example, chronic bronchitis for which they were given prescription after prescription by the medical system.
  12. Wanting federal money to support homeopathy is a big deal because it shows a willingness to waste public money on something with no benefit. The only effect it has is the placebo effect and there is no way quackery should be funded by the government. That the party policy supports this tells me that a vote for that party is wasted because it shows how poor their judgement is in a significant area. What else do they have these kinds of poor judgement on? FYI blue cross covers homeopathy. But I guess it's all a placebo effect just because you say it is.To be fair, most people say it is. How about medical professionals? The Mayo Clinic for example: http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/consumer-health/in-depth/alternative-medicine/art-20045267

  14. That seems strange. Why is she against WIFI?If she supports homeopathy in conjunction with traditional medicine no harm in that. Homeopathy actually does help some people. It has it's pros and cons just like anything else Well I mean it's essentially a placebo effect. Not harmful, but I wouldn't support spending taxpayer money on it. You should research further...
  15. The bad joke to end all bad jokes... Q: what's the difference between a Rider fan and an elephant? A: A Rider fan is green Q: What did Ripper say when he saw a herd of elephants? A: Look, Rider Fans. (He's colour blind)

  17. This is exactly why it's mind blowing that anyone thinks the NDP would be could economic managers. I guess when you hve no problem raising taxes it's easy to pay for everything. Depends - I think someone like Gary Doer would make a good Prime Minister. Jack Layton with some decent cabinet ministers would've had potential.
  18. And those players are the key to good special teams play. Bringing in as many as you can is just a bloody good idea.
  19. What the cuss?
  20. As soon as we have some depth...
  21. Well the Libs really had no competition in the 90's, That and they balanced the books and the economy was Web 1.0 After Quebec 4 years ago and Alberta this year I can see the NDP winning. Okay so im looking at the polls too. Would mean a major shift towards younger voters. Do you really think the Cons have legitimate competition? I think the most change we can expect is a Con minority. The reasons the NDP won so many seats last time are worth considering: 1. Jack Layton 2. People in Quebec not even paying attention to who the candidates actually were 3. The Liberal collapse Two or even three of those factors are no longer in play.
  22. The Cons will win again, for the same reason the Libs won all those majorities in the 90's.
  23. I'm encouraged by the second half adjustments of Richie Hall and Co.
  24. ....that this place is less active after.a win.
  25. He is lighting it up with his tight end these days in jail! You sure it's not his wide receiver?
