Maybe ask Greece how that worked out - China now owns a chunk of their coastline...

Those cows are dead by now, anyway. There's no need to further torture and deprive yourself.

You just need more education about poplar. 😀 But oh yes - Netley Creek maple syrup - maybe we should gift some to whoever wins the pick 'ems. The cows wanted to hear QX 104 during morning milking. If I dared to check CJOB sports at 25 after the hour, one or two of them would kick their milking machines off. But they did like afternoon baseball and football games.

Damn you for making me think of this. We had a dairy cow (#44) that would crap all over the walls, every time she walked out of the milking parlour - she'd give you a 'gotcha look' every time.

Oak, ash or elm are only needed for the very cold months. People will buy just a half cord of oak, and use poplar or jack pine for the rest.

Another underrated firewood.

I agree about Faj, but the Riders have been finding ways to win for a few seasons now MBT for the Argos is not that great either, but they had a good year in 2021

Most teams in the east have better QB situations than Calgary, BC or Edmonton.

That's a great point about the Calgary game. 9 times out of 10, that would've been a loss.

Rotation is the key to an effective D-line.

Basement teams will probably be in the West this year

I'm going to guess is has something to do with the safety position. Not that that exonerates him or anything.

Interesting point. And when the Bombers really cranked it up...they couldn't stop them.

The only difference when he was here...more of the yards came from the running game The final results are exactly the same.

Maybe keeping stuff in the bag for tougher opponents? Just my theory.

Protection issues need to get sorted out. If you're playing next to the GOAT Stanley Bryant and still struggling...

Agreed. Poplar grows like a weed and there is plenty of demand for it. But oak / ash / elm will generate double the BTU. There are plenty of ash and oak along Netley Creek, but I harvest only the dead ones, which tend to be rare.

Yes, those could be some good ideas. But You're wrong about poplar not being good fuel. If you cut it green, split it immediately and let it season for 6 months to a year, it makes good firewood. I've used plenty of it in my fire pit, and I have regular customers who use it as stove wood, esp. in fall and late winter / early spring.

There would not be a lot of benefit to feeding low quality alfalfa. You'd have to include supplements, depending on the protein level.

This offer needs to be withdrawn immediately...Trotz will turn into a ham & egger

That's interesting. We raise cattle (grass fed with a daily grain supplement) for our own use Our pasture is located partially in a poplar forest, but after 20 years the cattle have destroyed about half of the poplars What happens is - the cows like to rub themselves on the trees, and they eat all the lower leaves. Eventually, they rub off enough bark & decomposition sets in. It seemed like a good idea when we first built a pasture there...maybe a different species of tree is needed? I don't know.

Kongbo and Stove were huge losses, no doubt. I suspect pressure this year will go from being out of this word, to just steady.

Yes. But several of the key cogs and lunch bucket types have been there for a few years. Bighill, The Jeffs, Alexander, Thomas, Rose
