Yeah man. I think about possible replacement for Kenney within the UCP as premier and I laugh because as deplorable and without merit as a leader as Jason Kenney is, he is hands down the very best choice they have.

The point isn't for missing the field goal, the point is for kicking the ball through the endzone. I like the rouge purely for a quirky thing about the CFL. -

I don't like changing the dimensions of the field. That's a big change. Look everyone wants the CFL to thrive, but most of the pushback to proposed changes has little to do with the changes themselves and more the fact that there is the perception that the league is only trying to find an easy fix to get asses in the stands and eyes on TV. Which isn't going to happen. The game is already exciting, if people aren't watching it is for other reasons that the league needs to address first. -

I see the NFL didn't consider changing something as fundamental as the number of downs... all these media types need to get off their own dicks trying to make the cfl a shittier Northern nfl -
So out of touch with the real world. So concerned with appealing to the base to try and avoid the inevitable boot they are preparing for his ass in a leadership review (his only hope is if he can cheat hard enough again) he doesn't understand that keeping his job as ucp leader will alienate the majority of the province and cost him the job as premier. Just no clue that pandering to the worst elements makes you unelectable to the majority.

Yeah there are very few people wearing masks anymore. About the only place I'll put one on is the university of calgary because they still require it until the end of the term. Everywhere else there is no point. No one else wears one it doesn't make a difference. Government has stopped caring so just accepting the reality that eventually we will all catch it.

Except the PCs were very much a centrist, big tent party... Allison Redford would have made a fine Liberal. The UCP however is not the PCs. They are a far right wild rose replacement that borrowed the name conservative for electability reasons. Let's not forget the Harper conservatives were a lot friendlier with the wild rose party than they were the PCs.

Jason kenney, an extreme right winger by any stretch think he is the moderate one. These people have completely lost the picture of the world. They're so left behind by the rest of society they don't even understand how far out there they are.

Have you seen the "winners " in that group? Kenney is by far the most capable of them and Bumbles has ****** up every thing they've touched. Would he though? He is a pretty far right figure himself...

Not likely. Alberta had plenty of chances to elect the wild rose far right types and every single time they opted not to . The ucp preyed on the fact that people believed they would be the old pcs and not as far right as the wild rose.

Meanwhile Rider fans are going to be super disappointed when they tune into the combine and don't see any wheat harvesting going on. -

Not sure it was all that vaunted. It's old as **** equipment. The problem Russia always posed as a military was the piles and piles of nuclear weapons they still possess.

Things that didn't need a study to know that... But seriously what kind of article is that? Is this a thing now where you have to go through the whole damned articles to find a point? What happened to putting the crucial stuff first?

But that has been going on for far longer than Trump.

People truly believe that "I'm allowed to have my opinion" means they get to pretend facts don't matter. Used to be that dumbest ideas were shunned by communities so it was kept quiet. Now the internet has allowed them to find like minded fools and pretend they are actually informed.

Water is wet. Americans been pissed off for ages that less talented Canadians make more and have more job security since forever. I would suspect that is in large part due to a focus by the respective gms on making sure they have the Canadians who are good enough. -

Well I wouldn't say nothing... they've crippled his economy and armed Ukraine quite well. Problem is that he is a madman so you get the world's militaries stepping in directly he is libel to take the "if I lose everyone loses" option.

I can see why hufnagel would be in favour. His qb has a busted shoulder can't make the throws anymore. Same with Craig Dickenson. Got a noodle arm qb. Can't make those throws at the best of times. Seriously though I can see the logic in it. Puts more of the field in play at all times. Might make the short side more dangerous though. -

Want to improve offenses? Drop 2 of the DI spots. Teams use them almost exclusively for defensive players now to keep their guys fresh and throw different situational looks at an offense. That's the biggest change.
