Mark H. got a reaction from New_Earth_Mud in Assimilation (We Are Borg?)
The land bridge is still a theory. A good theory, but a theory nevertheless.

Mark H. reacted to tacklewasher in Alberta, Taxes, and Socialism
Please don't get KBF going on the BCTF. The board would melt down....
(And BTW, I agree with his opinion on it)

Mark H. got a reaction from kelownabomberfan in Alberta, Taxes, and Socialism
Even though I'm in the teacher's union and happy with what they provide, lately I've been wrestling with the idea of government and unions. Unions don't really represent the working poor any more. They mostly represent public employees and middle class trades people. I find that the idea of socialist governments supporting the working poor has become largely a myth. And it fits right in with the comment you made about Tommy Douglas in the other thread.

Your life is about to change for the better - except for getting lobster juice all over your Riders jersey

Political popularity depends almost entirely on circumstances.

Goal tending isn't as much of a factor as it used to be. Chicago didn't need outstanding goaltending, nor did Detroit or Boston.

My thoughts exactly. There are times when a coach's stubbornness is simply beyond reason.

Mark H. got a reaction from kelownabomberfan in Kevin Glenn's future
I say he got up front money from Taman. You know, 100k due on April 1st or something equally insane

Mark H. reacted to 17to85 in CFL cf. NFL: Depth of Interest
I am as much a CFL fan as I am a Bomber fan, I'll watch anything CFL related and follow it all closely... but I don't give any kind of damn about the NFL. It's a horribly over hyped league and I quite frnakly resent it for taking attention away from the CFL. I don't know if it's just a Calgary phenomenon but it seems like the NFL is a bigger deal than the CFL here and I hate that more than words can say. I can not wait for the superb owl to be over with so we can stop hearing about that damned league all the time. Lots of other sports to focus on.

Mark H. reacted to do or die in Ritch Dowery AKA third down
Sad, sad news...
Great fan, great poster, also the guy who switched me over to Bombay......

Mark H. reacted to Noeller in CFL cf. NFL: Depth of Interest
If it was possible to have less than 0 interest in the NFL, I would. I'm desperate for it to be overwith so we don't have to hear about it constantly. Post-Superbowl is the best time for me, because it's in the heart of Curling season, and the CFL FA Day is coming soon and the CIS Draft not far off...

Foley to the Argos for Emry. Didn't see that one coming.

My prediction: O'Shea will let other people touch the Quarterbacks

Mark H. got a reaction from Noeller in Riders release; Bombers sign Dominic Picard
Colour me unsurprised, after what we witnessed in the trenches this past season. Hmmmm maybe a few more decent OL will shake loose due to cap issues...

Mark H. got a reaction from Atomic in Riders release; Bombers sign Dominic Picard
Canadian OL depth is razor thin on this team. What happens if Morley gets hurt and Goossen isn't ready to step in as the every day centre?
Ditto with the two OG positions.

Mark H. got a reaction from Mark F in NFL is boring.
I agree. IMO their are two primary factors:
1. An extra down allows them to play more smash-mouth football. Draws, dump-offs, screens, et. al.
2. The insane amount of time that teams can just burn off with the extra down and the 40 second clock.

The idea that they don't must be quaintly west coast.
I got my info from Bluto, and from the experience of attending a couple of games at Skydome.

Mark H. got a reaction from Logan007 in Buck Pierce as Bombers QB Coach?
I always found Buck to be more of an ad lib QB who liked to hold on to the ball longer than most
