Sounds like a whole lot of smash mouth football.

The company is called Lakeland today - we get our milk delivered from there.

It would be interesting to know if there was a difference in how RBs were utilized In today's game, they are mostly the outlet valve as a receiver, and they have to fight for much of their yardage

The absolute brilliance of getting him here as an FA, and then keeping him here for so many seasons, cannot be overstated It has been said before - he was one of the key components of the 'culture shift'

Just so I'm clear - you're saying he did this in Columbus?

Yes, in the mid - 70s all the way to the early 90s, the only real way to make money with grain was to feed it to livestock But more recently, it is quite possible to do well with farming exclusively grain But the CWB was not the issue - because grains other than wheat or malting barley were also priced very low Barley was as low as 90 cents a bushel in 1980s, so you could make a killing feeding it to hogs or cattle

Fair comment. One difference I would point out: fewer large semis vs. many small grain trucks

Since we're doing receiver confessions - I was excited when Taman signed Wane McGarrity.

But don't forget - the trucks were still hauling the grain to the local elevators, even when the trains were running. We haul our grain to Patterson on the West perimeter. From there, it gets shipped further (usually south) by train. The vast majority of Canada's exported grain is still moved by train.

I don't. I will drink rye and coke maybe once a month. My go tos are: Crown Royal on the rocks, Scotch on the rocks, or an ice cold 1919

We found that the Wheat Board paid quite well, but it took longer to get your money. But, we felt we didn't need the CWB, because we were marketing the rest of our crops ourselves. I don't know about that. Compared to the cost of planting, cultivating and harvesting, the cost of hauling your grain to a larger centre is peanuts.

I have always preferred Pepsi, because I found Coke to be too sweet. I did not notice a metallic taste before Covid.

Ever since I had Delta back in November, Pepsi has a strange metallic taste. The grand days of rye & pepsi are over.

Fair enough. And I think it would have been removed either way. Every majority government does pretty much what they want - that's just reality.

So, the procedures are what you're on about. That was textbook politics in general.

If you're looking to criticize Harper, you'll find that the Wheat Board is not a good issue to do it on.

The wheat board was a non-issue. We didn't need a board to market any of our other crops. No one in Canada grows exclusively wheat on their farm. To be honest, most farmers quit farming because their kids no longer want to farm. And with land prices insanely high, it's a great time to get out. 100% correct. There are no more small farmers raising hogs, but still plenty that raise cattle or poultry.

I mean...who goes for the baseball?

Walmarts are open 24 hours in many states - feel free to draw your own metaphorical conclusions.

Are 7 Canadian spots not already there by default? They can only have 16 Americans on the game day roster (plus 2 QBs).

Loved Adam Bighill's response to Bob Irving's rants about the ratio - on Twitter. The players aren't going to ratify an agreement that removes the ratio.

If they could get another fan base like the one in Hamilton - why not? Oh I know. It's an unprofessional way of doing business.

Just over 400 000 - half of Winnipeg's population.
