  1. **** this guy so much...
  2. I figured they might try and rush him back if we made playoffs but not before...
  3. Humongous game....need a gem on Friday.
  4. ...it was always stated that the 6-8 week time frame was best case scenario.....
  5. Vega's a beauty and still bleeds the Blue and Gold. If you follow him on Twitter, he's cheering for the Bombers every week. Love that guy.
  6. Hey, speaking of Uni's...I know these current incarnations are the worst ever, but CFL.ca has a huge deal on right now for fully printed jerseys... http://www.cflshop.ca/style/CFL-Mens-Player-Jersey/20806573 With all of the jerseys on clearance, I'm wondering if this means they're getting rid of all of 'em and a whole new batch of stuff is due next summer......
  7. That.....is very good news.
  8. With the election over, I say we lock this thread and just have a generic "Canadian Politics" one that you guys can derail into petty personal squabbles...
  9. *edit* -- double post..
  10. He's saying all the right things so far. One of the biggest things, for me, was taking 15 minutes with the media yesterday and no questions were off limits. He wanted to make a point about how much more accessible and hands-off he was going to be with the media. Not muzzling them in any way. Maybe it changes down the road, but for now, that's a really smart way to separate yourself from the zombie robot before you.
  11. This kinda talk will get you killed in small town Alberta....
  12. Progress, no matter how incremental, should be rewarded.....
  13. Had 2 PTO's, its a young players game time to move on with life. There's work to be done on the farm, and Coach Sutter could use the help on the Innisfail Eagles...
  14. Prior to ridings being re-organized this election I used to be in Jason Kenneys riding, the best part of this election is that I didn't have to hold my nose and vote for that greasy bugger. You think Harper had an issue with corruption, Kenney just screams corruption. He's too much of a lifer and attached to Harpers hip. It would be more of the same. I do not like the guy despite how big his margins of victory have been. The Conservatives would be smart to distance themselves from Harper and his cronies because Canada just finished rejecting Harper and his ways in a big way. Give Trudeau credit for appealing to all of Canada, ever since 93 it seems the country has been fractured regionally but the Liberals even won seats in Calgary, that's a break through for them despite most of alberta being blue still. Too many times the country has broken along regional lines and it's good to see an actual coast to coast government, let's hope that he lives up to his election talk of uniting Canadians. ^^^ This...
  15. Someone connected with the team or one of its advertisers.....it's the same thing we have with on-air promotions. You can't be affiliated with the station or one of the advertisers in any way, in order to qualify for the prize. The optics just aren't good. Likely an honest mistake.
  16. Picking a young, smart woman would be a really nice progressive move for the CPC to show they're not just stodgy old white boys....
  17. Saw someone post a Panthers ad on FB today where they're offering a ticket to the game, $15 voucher for concessions, and tshirt for $29. Just desperate to get people in the door...
  18. I know nothing about Kenny, but as you can see from some of the posters here, there are quite a few people who think Harper was excellent, and a great Prime MInister. Therefore, they will probably also think Jason Kenny is acceptable. I don't think we'll be seeing another PM from Alberta for quite a while. I agree. Today's young people are quite different from their boomer parents, and face a much more difficult, uncertain future. I heard an interview this am saying that the Liberals espouse proportional representation. I hope they bring it in. Too many people are unrepresented under the current system. The most obvious thing to keep in mind is the sheer volume of immigrants now compared to then and how society is so much more multi-cultural and, therefore, living life differently and expecting different things. It's a completely different landscape now, and today's PM has to understand and celebrate that. I think JPTs first speech, last night, hinted that he can be that guy...
  19. You sound like a lot of baby-boomers I know who voted for the first Trudeau in 1968. They too felt that it was time for the younger generation to take over from the old guard, and the "Just Society" was the way to go. They ended up being pretty disillusioned though in the end with how things worked out, and many I talk to regretted their decision. I don't think that the expectations for Trudeau 2.0 are nearly as lofty as they were for the first one, and I also don't think this Trudeau will govern the same way. He seems far more inclusive than his old man, and I hope I am right on that. As Canadians now are much different than Canadians then.......
  20. Kenney is one of the slimiest pricks in Canadian politics. He's a Harper right-hand-man, so I'd hope the party faithful, after seeing how rabidly Canada voted out Stephen Harper (I really feel people were voting against him, not the party in general), won't elect one of his cronies as leader. They really need someone more progressive if they're going to continue to compete....
  21. Nothing wrong with that. Except that it shows how utterly pathetic our scouting and GM are. Actually quite the opposite.....because they're constantly working to upgrade, and not just sitting on "Ehhh, good enough....."
  22. Of course you did, because it's the most contrarian opinion to be had. Hiring DD would be no better than keeping MOS on, which I'd be just as happy to do.
  23. Welllllllll......DD can say he wants to stay, but eventually someone's going to come calling with an offer he can't refuse. One way or another, this has to be resolved for the Stamps, at some point......
  24. Darrin Bauming ‏@DarrinBauming 4m4 minutes ago #Bombers add three INTs to the PR: DL Ethan Farmer, RB B.J. Catalon, REC Spencer Davis. The club has released INT RB Steve Miller.
  25. If you check the Twitter feed scrolling down the right side, looks like buzz is back re: Huff to Riders next year. Jamie Nye claiming that Scott Mitchell of Calgary Sun thinks Huff is going to get forced out because he doesn't want to quit coaching and the tall foreheads want Dave **** to take over....
