  1. C'mon guys, consequences are the problem, they need consequences, there will be consequences
  2. That's cool, you don't have to believe it. He also said he agrees with January, that the protections needs to be better.
  3. Willy said publicly last week that 'he couldn't take anymore hits.' I highly doubt Willy said this. What's your source? He said it 1290 before the Ottawa game...I heard him.
  4. Willy said publicly last week that 'he couldn't take anymore hits.'
  5. How is it even possible...to blitz for more than half the game and generate hardly any pressure? The front 7 and OL looked dead out there today. Props to the secondary for giving a good effort.
  6. Who is? Most of what I read is posters saying our depth needs to improve.
  7. The jet package vs. the Etcheverry D, that image is good for a chuckle or two
  8. A point about penalties: the last PI call in the BC vs. Ottawa game. At that point the game was out of reach, it wasn't exactly a catchable ball, and all the call did was turn the game into an even bigger rout for BC.
  9. Argos seems to be peaking at the right time
  10. So...it sounds like moving away from 5 day trials was fairly logical
  11. If in the past year you haven't changed or slightly revised an opinion...check your pulse...you may be dead
  12. The crossing routes are a good point. Bryant was effective on a couple of those in Hamilton game. I hope a few more are in the works to slow down the blitz.
  13. There was a recession...the feds chose to run a deficit and keep transfer payments intact. What happened in the 90's wasn't really a recession, it was Paul Martin balancing the federal budget on the backs of the provinces.
  14. Just some facts: Since 2005-2006, federal transfer payments to Manitoba have increased by 641 million. http://www.fin.gc.ca/fedprov/mtp-eng.asp#Manitoba Going back to 1999, it's about a billion. As a percentage of overall government revenue they have dropped from over 40% to less than 30%. This is consistent with what is happening across the country.
  15. Not a bad article, except for Broadbeck's need to add a little more of his own spin. The MB. PST is pretty consistent with PST rates across the country. If you look at the big picture, governments of all political stripes raise taxes. Mulroney called Harper's GST cut "good politics but bad policy."
  16. I've done that...it isn't funny...
  17. He's afraid to practice against our OL...yep that'd do it...
  18. There were games they could easily have lost early in the season...there have also been games they could've won in the last few weeks.
  19. I'm left shaking my head...the more things change...the more they stay the same.
  20. They fielded a better starting 24...that's progress. When injuries began to happen, it became clear that depth was inadequate...progress still to be made.
  21. As Dave Ritchie put it: 'we won three more games, that's improvement."
  22. The difference Wild will make cannot be overstated.
  23. Local funding of education needs to go - all it does is create inequality. We are the only province that still has it.
  24. I wasn't referring only to Winnipeg.
  25. Fun Fact: all teams in the East have a game in hand on all the teams in the West. Considering some of the QB injuries in the West...the crossover may not be a given.
