  1. Iso - saw the first Mulcair attack ad today by the Tories - same format, same actors. Looking forward to watching it 50 times per football game this weekend...ugh...
  2. Just think, had you gone & been discovered, you'd be calling yourself Dirk Nugget instead of KBF. More like "Buck Naked"
  3. Reminds of the time me and three buddies signed up to be extras in the movie "Cool Runnings" which was filming in Calgary. Then we thought it would be a great idea to get drunk and stay up all night and go to the filming the next morning (we were going to take a bus). Except we all passed out and woke up at noon the next day and missed the entire thing. Every time I watch the end of Cool Runnings now where the Jamaicans are carrying the sled over the finish line I look into the cheering crowd and think "that could have been me!" A really drunk/hung over me, but me. Darn... One of the main reasons we wanted to go to the filming was we wanted to see John Candy, but apparently he never left his trailer the entire day. He wasn't feeling very well they told us. I am assuming he was pretty much near the end by that point...
  4. It's nice to have a long week, but aren't the Bombers the last team to get a bye?
  5. One more...How often to him and Taman get drunk and wrestle in the nude? why would they need to be drunk?
  6. Bob Irving @BobIrvingCJOB Chris greaves working at left tackle for blue bombers as Stanley Bryant watches with a minor injury
  7. yeah I was talking about a game in 1985. And I have the first-hand account of a player who was on the field at the time who saw lightning hit a goal-post.
  8. Yeah it's easy to tell a pollster you are voting NDP, but then it's a whole different thing to step into that voting booth and think really? I am going to unleash that circus of clowns on the economy?
  9. Mulcair definitely, but I wouldn't mind hanging out at a game with Justin...especially if this is the reaction he gets wherever he goes...
  10. how's Bilukudi looking?
  11. You guys definitely have us beat hands down when it comes to the cheerleaders. A tip of the hat to the Bombers for assembling a fine group again this year Toronto ain't bad either...
  12. I don't know how much stock to put in polls, but if the election were held right now, some pollsters are saying we'd have a minority NDP government. That would be favorable to a majority NDP government, I guess.... http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/poll-tracker-ndp-lead-widens-slightly-over-conservatives-1.3178079
  13. The subsidized child care program has been a complete bust in Quebec. First, all of the daycares unionized, and implemented rigid working hours, meaning that they weren't even open during periods when less financially advantaged people had to work, like shift labour, so only people with day jobs could take advantage, which tended to be the more wealthy. And then of course, the costs were far greater than even the most conservative estimates. Mulcair says that his plan will cost $5 billion per annum. Better double that, just as a start. $10 billion a year - that's a huge pill to swallow. There can only be one reason that Mulcair is pushing for subsidized daycare and that's because he's been told by the HEU and big labour to do it, because it will create thousands of new unionized jobs. It's not about the greater good for all, it's about the greater good for the unions, and that's why (one of the reasons) I can't stand the NDP.
  14. I just get the sense that the game has moved on and Taman is in way over his head. Thank goodness we have the Walters (yes I am calling him that now). I hope he sticks around until he's 70.
  15. https://stats.cfldb.ca/league/cfl/schedule/1984/06/21/bc-at-wpg/ Was this the game?
  16. Why do you say that? Before he was drafted, he said it was his lifelong dream to play for the Bombers.You think the Riders 0-6 start to the season has made him fall in love with Regina? Yeah there's so much else that makes you fall in love with that town... Toothless girls are good at some things. Gross. Not if you close your eyes tightly. Kind of like walking a tight-rope. Don't look down.

  18. I know Nixon didn't win. All of those ballot boxes thrown into Lake Michigan by the mayor of Chicago made sure Nixon didn't win.
  19. I've always wondered why Trudeau or Mulcair aren't ever seen at any sporting events. Seems like pretty cheap publicity. Even Pierre took in almost every Grey Cup game, even if he didn't know a football from a meatball...
  20. Its bigger because of all of those dentists.
  21. a friend of mine was in Honolulu during Christmas break. The Secret Service shut down an entire city block just so that Obama could go out for dinner. There were gunboats in the harbor and helicopter gunships circling over-head. Meanwhile, at the same time, I was watching our Prime Minister high-fiving people in the crowd at the gold-medal junior hockey game at Air Canada center in Toronto. I like our ways better.
  22. The mafia put him in power. Richard Nixon won the 1960 election. But the mafia insured that the Kennedys won. And then the Kennedys turn on the mafia. Not too smart.
  23. Sorry but you have to address needs, and we needed Sukh Chungh, who is going to be a stud.
