  1. Wheaties just no match for the Rockets...shame. I'm selfishly hoping that the Wheaties come back stronger next year and can make the Mem Cup in Red Deer...
  2. Not disagreeing with anything that anyone is saying in this thread, but I would give ANYTHING to be in the barn for a hometown blowout GC win to end a drought. And the GM who made it happen, by any and all means necessary, would get a free pass for life from me...
  3. Really surprised he didn't come back to Wpg when the NFL thing didn't' pan out, but whatever. We'll see if he can stay healthy all year in Hammer...
  4. Make all the Taman jokes you want, but that guy brought a blowout Grey Cup win in front of the home fans in the home barn....he gets a pass for life, in my books.
  5. I've been saying Chungh for a long time, and I'm sticking with that one as our #2......
  6. Tait says lots of buzz about the Bombers dealing #11 + #15 for another Top 10, in order to make sure they get Demski and a quality OL....
  7. This was awhile ago, keep in mind...
  8. Not that I ever heard. There were a lot of theories about the pressure on students to perform academically because everyone was a child of a scientist or engineer or something. You were told from day 1 that you have to have great grades to get into a great University and have a degree. Not sure how much that plays in, but it was something that was talked about.
  9. I was always told there was another generation of Ralph coming up and they were the best of the bunch so far...
  10. Hopefully the chat is active that night. Should be a fun evening!!
  11. Anyone who takes a hard stance (one way or the other) on Ezra Levant is an idiot. It's not serious, and I guarantee you it's not 100% how he really feels. It's all about eliciting a reaction...no matter how you get it, get people talking...
  12. Small market CFL...I say do what you gotta do.
  13. I think I've said it on here before, but just to reiterate a point: Camp is going to be a ******* BLAST to watch this year...
  14. Anything you can sell to bring in more money for the club teams is a great thing...
  15. Let's go Wheaties....*clap clap clap clap clap*....
  16. Man, I said this to 17to85 this morning on FB chat and he lit me up. I really thought Bucknor was solid if unspectacular last year. He more than held his own, and I'd have no problem with starting him again this year, if need be. Thought he was a really pleasant surprise last season.
  17. bah, you and I both know that income splitting is the conservative notion of "Women are supposed to stay home, cook and clean and pop out babies!" so they created an incentive to keep women outta the workforce and stay at home doing "Mommy" things. Such an old school conservative "Focus On The Family" idea...
  18. that's interesting, 'cause I know that in the Saddledome, anyhow, it's an independant company that runs the concessions and they charge the same no matter the event. $7 chicken fingers and fries...best deal goin'....
  19. I think that the anti-Harper crew have to play any card they have in the deck. In 2011 all I heard was that Harper was a Nazi who was going to make abortion and gay marriage illegal and stack the Supreme Court with right wing judges. Well none of that happened. They can't really say their guy is going to do a better job of managing the economy (well they can try, but no one is going to believe it) so all they have left is the fear card. According to the polls not too many are buying this. This new security bill is a bit of a head-scratcher. I don't now why Harper is doing this right now, but I guess I have nothing to hide so I don't really care. I for sure fall to the right line of centre politically but the having nothing to hide rational is IMO a poor and dangerous one. This is a quote from Benjamin Franklin, but I think an appropriate one. Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. The problem is that the Liberals and Conservatives both support the spying bill, governments always want more power to spy. And even Mulcair said today he's more or less in favour of it. Apparently only the hippie Greens are agin' it...
  20. The only way people are going to be out of jobs in Alberta is if people start freaking out for no reason and make stupid knee jerk reactions.
  21. More importantly he's no Jonathan Toews.
  22. Oh yeah, 'cause being lazy is new....
  23. And now you're whining about the whiners whining about whining.......my goodness, I've gone crosseyed.....
  24. Harper and the version of CPC he's run absolutely do terrify me. Not sure Justin is the right guy, but Steve needs to go...
  25. Welcome to life at Pinawa Secondary. So many over the years...I'm not even sure what the grand total is. During my time, I believe there were 4, from 1992-1996. During my mom's time, in the late 60s/early 70s, there were 5 in 5 years. At one point in time, Pinawa had the highest suicide rate per capita in Canada, with only 1500 people (ish) and the sheer unheard of volume of suicide. Sigh.
