Canadian as F***

Bob presenting O'shea Coach of the Year is a sight to see

Biggie wins MODP. Obviously

The right Olineman won. Grats Stanley Bryant. Nice coat

CFL awards live now on YouTube

A religious sect of the pro-COVID crowd being very Christ-like in their efforts to intimidate and blackmail a reporter. Good people on both sides

I like:

I think straight fire is slang for lasers, kids love lasers

Back in 2019 Hamilton posted a video of Brett Favre cheering them on leading up to the the Grey Cup, making it look like he was a fan. But really, it was a cameo... there is a service called cameo where you can pay bored celebrities hundreds of dollars to record personalized messages. So this time around they paid Ice Cube (famous rapper) to leave them a message and the Bombers are trolling them for paying for celebrity shoutouts again. There, I'm not old as dirt yet

I believe you are thinking of when Bruce Johnson did some ecstasy and got busted for doping, suspended for 2 games

To Nye's credit, he did pick us to beat the Riders last week. Among CFL.ca writers only Jim Morris chose the Riders

I look forward to the day the truth seekers and freedom fighters say "I think that's enough calling people nazis on twitter for today, maybe now I'll go sit down with a doctor or nurse and get another opinion" but I suspect the sun will actually set in the East first

Yes, he at least played until the half, it may have been the 2nd half kick off it happened.

I like the part when Murphy gets punched in the nose after saying some real cool stuff

I’m not talking about hammering players that you have to do this, you’re listening to the players, you get a sense of where they’re coming from,” O’Shea said. “When a player is not able to play for whatever reason, what comes to my mind is the person, what they’re feeling and the turmoil that they’re going through,” O’Shea said. “He wasn’t able to travel.” O'Shea takes a much more sympathetic tone than I do, that's for sure.

I had to look it up, Bryant came to us in 2015 and Neuf in 2013

Had to be done. No coming back from that one, not at that level of an organization

Who's being hostile to who? The Zoo said they needed proof of vax and they are still getting it from these... "people" on twitter right now. Comparing them to nazis, telling them they will 'suffer the consequences', accusing them of hurting children with their actions... a lot of self described freedom fighters and truth seekers being publicly nasty to a not-for-profit's social media account. How do I reach out to these people without coming across as condescending or hostile? Are they even listening to anyone that doesn't immediately agree that this is discrimination or fascism?

We all could be wrong haha. No I'm sorry, I don't have a source, I'm simply applying what I do know about viruses (albeit plant viruses)

I don't miss scrolling through quotes-within-quotes-within-quotes like we used to

Yes indeed lol. I think he knew Pearl Harbor happened in 41 so he thought that must be when the war started. This was a coworker of mine... we gave eachother wide berth and only talked about music or the weather the rest of the season, much easier that way.

Now again I'm not an epidemiologist but from what I understand, as the strains get more infectious (Omicron) they become less lethal. Meaning to say that the more it mutates the more it 'dilutes' it's own lethality. This is a virus, it wants to live and spread in us, not kill us. So if our current vaccines are only effective against previous strains, it stands to reason the strains it may not effective against will be less lethal. So no, I don't think we'll have to go to square one if Omicron or later strains start to break out in vaccinated areas. Time will tell.

I was responding to Tiny on where I think we can go from here. Vaccine passports are part of that.

I recall being very concerned about O-Liners from Saskatchewan, still feeling a bit gunshy after Labatte. Worked out great in the end though

I feel that the vaccination passport is great. Even better would be if it were combined with our driver's license so that it is one card for all purposes. People without medical exemptions who choose not to be vaccinated would then also be choosing not to be able to participate in events or functions that require vaccination. Businesses should be able to require proof of vaccination even if there are no public health orders requiring that they do so. Now, I've said this out loud and been called a fascist and was told if I did not study history I would be doomed to repeat it. I asked what specifically they meant and they said I was promoting Nazism, and said I was as bad as those that wanted Jews to wear stars on their jackets. I then asked that person if they were such a history expert when did world war 2 start? They said 1941. These are not smart people.
