Don't drink much anymore, my tolerance for booze cratered sometime around when I hit 40, but I got a sodastream and I fizz all manner of stuff in it.

The only plays that Harris really made last night came after the rain started.

Harris did not look like Harris tonight. Lots of passes way off the mark.

I like the Zero Fighters AFC. When they play the Hurricanes, it must be a real dogfight...

Not in the summertime, they don't. Looking back to 2013, they're 14-4-2 in their first four games every season.

Kennedy is the swing vote on a lot of cases, yes. He voted with the conservatives on election-related cases like Citizens United and Shelby (cases that allowed unlimited political spending and which defanged the Voting Rights Act) and voted with the liberals on sexual liberty cases like Lawrence v. Texas and Obergefell (which found anti-sodomy laws unconstitutional and mandated gay marriage nationwide)

congrats to your son and his family! As someone who married an American girl and made my home here, I can vouch that it's a great way to live. Every so often I look at the ******* lunatic jackals running the federal government here and think about pulling up stakes and returning to Canada. But I've been here twenty years, I've got roots here now that are far deeper than the roots I've got left in Canada. So yeah, I feel that same person connection that you do.

I wish Zach Collaros a speedy and complete recovery.

furthermore on not being served in America: https://www.npr.org/2018/06/25/623307762/walgreens-pharmacist-denies-drug-for-woman-with-unviable-pregnancy In some states in the USA, a pharmacist's religion trumps their patient's health.

Coates looked solid in limited action, played big in the playoffs. Was looking forward to seeing him this year, hope his foot heals quick and well.

I remember when Rory Kohlert was our top Canadian. I was happy to have him on the team, i think he's CFL starter quality, but if he's the ceiling for national talent on your team, your GM has work to do

Just loved the block that Wolitarsky threw to spring Harris down the sidelines in the 1Q of the Montreal game. He patiently stuck with his block during a slow developing play and then took out both his man and the guy pursuing Harris. (that was the play where Harris straightarmed a guy and Cuthbert got all excited about it, not noticing the double block by #82) kinda wish Petermann had stuck with the #71 he wore in training camp -- that's a good-looking number on a Bomber receiver.

2018-06-23 Winnipeg at Montreal Blue and gold angels pour their bowls upon the mount. The Strevelation I pity the Als-- once-mighty larks of legend now in Kavis' hands

The 52-0 Tim Burke game in 2012, and that game was way worse than this one. We weren't even briefly competitive in that one. The WSF last year was pretty bad too, a couple garbage time TDs put some lipstick on the pig but we were soundly outcompeted on that day.

why is Harris still in? Redblacks should be giving Davis some snaps...

Wonder if they're lining him up at field or boundary? Field corner is a place where teams used to try to hide below-grade nationals. Is he gonna be lining up opposite Dionte Spencer or JFG? Anyway, if Carter is a liability, Ottawa has the talent to expose him. Spencer, Sinopoli, Ellingson, Harris -- the blacks have a pretty good passing attack going there.

(I'm surprised how little chatter there is here about Parliament legalizing dope. Having come up in the era of just say no, this seems like an enormous deal)

If Carter is a liability, someone will expose him.

Good for Canada. Stop putting people in jail for dope. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-44543286

you really think that becoming a minority in the USA is "losing everything?"

oh, I definitely don't think the sentiment is a false one ... plenty of good people on both sides, as the man says ... but fake photos put things into question.

Snopes says this photo is a fake. The trump movement is plenty ugly in reality, when you spread fake stuff about it, you legitimize all its fakenews whining.

It's a pretty tough catch on a slick field, moving full speed one way and the ball lands behind your back hip. Rod Black called it a drop but I don't think so.
