  1. And let's be honest... when your boss gets fired you probably aren't feeling super secure in your position. Even if it's not more money, why wouldn't he take an NFL opportunity right now? It will only increase his reputation in the CFL and someday a desperate team will probably throw a bunch of cash at him to come back and run their team.
  2. The Hydro PowerSmart advertising program is worth it but I don't know why other crown corps need to. I saw an ad at Shaw Park for the Winnipeg Parking Authority. WTF?
  3. Wouldn't be surprised if the Argos can still manage to be better than the trash pile in Regiba or whatever that stupid city is called
  4. Well the Flames did make it to the SC finals the year after he left, with lots of players he acquired or drafted. He basically built most of that team. Picks such as Matthew Lombardi, Eric Nystrom, Chuck Kobasew, and David Moss. He drafted Jarrett Stoll as well but not sure he was ever a player for Calgary? Either way not a stellar record but hardly a disaster. I'm not a huge fan of his.
  5. Popp/Trestman reunited in TO?
  6. Wow. Apparently has an NFL job lined up. Who's crazy enough to go run the good ship Argo?
  7. Yeah I like Cato. Not sure if he's a better option than Davis, I'd like to see them both here competing for the backup job.
  8. Can't argue with too many of his grades for the players but I would say Little deserves better than a B, as one of our best forwards... Chiarot and Armia should probably get a D rather than a C. He makes a great point about goaltending, penalties, and PK% being the main issues. Something has to be done about that.
  9. OK fair enough that's why I like Alexa Bliss
  10. I don't get the Samoa Joe love, personally. He's just a fat guy. What's the appeal? I can understand Kevin Owens because he does cool moves. what does Samoa Joe have? The worst looking jabs in the industry?
  11. Probably low testosterone
  12. Yeah it's kinda an unanswerable question. But look at how many coaches are awesome in one place and then trash in another. And then awesome again! (Tortorella for example, or even Carlyle) Are their coaching styles changing that drastically from year-to-year? Or is it the talent they have to work with? Nobody wants to admit the team doesn't have the talent because it's so much easier to change the coach. I'm not saying it's necessarily the case with the Jets. But it's hard to know definitively.
  13. In our 100+ years, we have never had a female AGM. Hmm... but that seems to be the way the wind is blowing these days... After all, we have female singers, female motorists... Welcome aboard!
  14. What's the big no-no? Lying to Meltzer? Or lying about contract status in general?
  15. I still think coaching impact is overstated. Players 90%, coaching 10%. See the difference between McLellan's Oilers last year vs this year.
  16. I'm starting to think TBURGESS isn't actually Tom Burgess at all
  17. That was not an ad hominem attack. I was attacking the statement that they are limiting free speech. If I'd said "Oh you JCon, you always talk trash about Trump, so no one should trust you!!", that would have been an ad hominem. Grandstanding? guilty as charged.
  18. I took a break but had to come back to MBB because I was becoming too antagonistic in real life. It's specifically why I come here. I need it as an outlet for my anger.
  19. Glenn was there in case Nichols got hurt, not in case of poor play. You think O'Shea was going to pull two QBs for poor play in one season? Come on. Rider punk *****
  20. Set aside the ridiculous "fancy stats" moniker and realize that all we're really saying in this thread is that the team generates more offence than we give up when Wheeler is on the ice. More than any other player. Although I'm sure you guys are super awesome at judging good D zone play (that was sarcasm), you can't deny the FACT that Wheeler is our best forward when it comes to generating offence for and limiting offence against.
  21. You said limiting free speech AND undermining the institutions. One does not necessarily imply the other. Undermining the media is not limiting free speech. He is undermining the institutions, yes, but not limiting free speech. Why lie and exaggerate to make your point? It just makes honest, intelligent liberals look bad.
  22. Who's limiting free speech? Haven't seen that yet but I'd love to hear some examples, which I'm sure you have if you're making such a bold claim.
  23. Who decides it's an unconstitutional order?
  24. Yeah the difference is that we already had a starter and we traded for half a season of Glenn as a backup. The Riders have no starter at the moment and are dishing out a signing bonus and more for Glenn. Maybe Glenn will end up being insurance. Maybe not. But it's not the same.
