  1. I have both Starlink and Valley Fiber. We moved into this house 2 years ago next week. At the time Valley could estimate “end of the year”, we had the cables pushed through to the house last July, and all the local construction was completed last fall, we were not “turned on” until May of this year, about 18 months after suggested but whatever. It works flawlessly and we have had zero downtime. We are paying for TV service as well as the family was not super thrilled with only streaming options, especially CFL and lack of PVR were a pain. Only complaint about VF is that I can’t figure out how to load Netflix on to their android based box so still use the Firesticks for that (and any grey market streaming one might chose to do.) When we moved, we needed relatable internet and neither Bell or Xplornet seemed to have that. We were lucky that Starlink had expanded our cell and we were able to get service right away. Other than the one worldwide outage they had we have had no issues. We have had 2 WFH and an 11 year old on a snow day all online at the same time and it worked flawlessly. The one caveat I will add is that Starlink’s included wifi router was garbage at the time e got our hardware. I am not sure what they are supplying now but I will always recommend an after market router. We’ve used an Eero 6 on Shaw, Starlink and now VF and it has been great in both houses we’ve had it. We don’t game so I can’t comment on applicability of either for that, as always a word connection is best for that. I’ve changed Starlink service to mobile or whatever they call it now and have the dish on the roof still so that if anything happens with VF we can b up and running in an hour or so but so far no need. Opn to answering any questions that anyone may have.
  2. Okay, bye week is over, any Bomber news to talk about? Saw Strevy at the airport last night and he looked anxious to get back to work.
  3. True, but I didn't feel the need to swear about it as he slowed him up enough to allow others to swarm. I haven't read the entire thread, was there any talk during game about the BC DB's trying to rough Wilson up? 1 and 0 both crossed the line after the whistle more than a couple times and the refs watched and did nothing. Absolute **** reffing and shows just what a DBag Peters is.
  4. HH to Hollie Jefferson, she was feeling it last night. Giving it to the refs and supporting her team like I have never seen before. You go Girl!!!
  5. I said I had a 'feeling" about this one, sure glad it wasn't indigestion... The positives: I can't think of any play I wanted to swear at Jake, Biggie or BA, I guess only being on the field for 18 really helps. Still would like to see Eli at centre and given a chance to get on a roll, I though with Kolo going out we might see that last night but no luck. I can remember at least one run play that I saw Kolo standing around the line looking for someone to block. Dude the play went forward, why are you in pass pro? After the flags in the first 1/4 I thought we would be sunk, how does Collaros take yet another time count at home? As others have said, the Ford interception cracked VAJ's spirit and the game was over early. Enjoy the long weekend and the Bye Week, always good to have a win that lingers.
  6. I thought Taylor was replacing Polo Park/Clarion. I guess consolidating the two of them and saying FU to all of WPG but the South West side.
  7. Fly overs at the PAS are pretty lame. How many people in the building actually have a sight line of it? From my seats in 125 you can see it when it is approaching from the south until it gets close to the stadium and then nothing but the noise...
  8. it's kind of depressing really, I'm almost having to actually to work to kill the time until I leave for the game.
  9. Probably had to commit to more than one to secure a franchising agreement.
  10. Thanks for sharing, this one has GF pancakes and waffles so I am more interested than in some others. Looking forward to visiting the Madison Square location.
  11. For the last couple years we have played BC at home in June and I have missed the game while travelling on business. We will be at the game tonight and I am "feeling" a better outcome. Not happy with the roster we are putting out there, will be angry about how O'Sh uses some guys but still hopeful for a positive outcome. GO BLUE!!!!
  12. I think Military Appreciation Night has something to do with it. Always a couple thousand extra that night.
  13. Sign Bailey today, play him tomorrow, see him have a career game against his old team. Will we? Why would we do anything to make our roster stronger?
  14. I don't understand why Lucky is here if they aren't going to play him. There is no way that he can't provide more than what some of the guys they are sending out there can do.
  15. I am so glad the Game Day Roster gets shared on social media. On their own website the Bombers don't even acknowledge that this game is happening... https://www.bluebombers.com/2024-depth-position-charts/
  16. I know there was one on the PR but not listed currently. He may still be in town somewhere as his wife is from here and in-laws are here.
  17. I don’t know what it is for sure but he was starting and excelling before and is a back up now…
  18. The biggest WTF in my mind of Kolanowksi, if Zach is your guy how do you not do everything you can to protect him? Are you really choosing to risk your QB over your bitterness towards a player that didn't get vax'd and couldn't complete the 2021 season? If you weren't willing to play Eli why would you have Walters sign him for 3 years? That one roster change could improve our offense immensely, fixing our defense is probably two changes but solutions are in house. I guess my message to Osh and the team would be "We as fans are sick of not seeing the best players we have not start and play the most reps, fix it before we FO."
  19. I would be shocked if they went outside of the organization for that help and it was more effective than what Wade could do himself.
  20. Renovating someone's house. It may happen and we don't know but I will never understand why the team doesn't ask him to come spend time with punting prospects at TC to teach just that one technique as in to the wind is such a tricky aspect of the game.
  21. That's the polite way of saying what I was thinking.
  22. This team and its actions just confuse the hell out of me. Will be hard to get motivated to spend 6 hours to and from a home game if it doesn't turn around fast.
  23. Only the part pertinent to my argument.
  24. Or is 3 Safeties MOS Leveling Up???
  25. Not really... I still hang out with my best friend Dave I've known him since we were kids at school Last night he had a few shots Got in a tight spot Hustling a game of pool With a couple of red neck boys And one great big fat biker man I heard David yell across the room Hey Buddy how bout a helping hand I said Dave I ain't as good as I once was My how the years have flown But there was a time Back in my prime When I could really hold my own But if you want a fight tonight Guess those boys don't look all that tough I ain't as good once was But I'm as good once, as I ever was
