Yelling at the TV does not count as PBP
-
You don't think professional PBP guys can't call multiple sports? Tonnes of them already do it in the States? Hell Rod Black does it ! I'm going to say you and Noeller are dead wrong and take a hard stance on it. If Rod Black (who isn't great even ignoring the weird tangents he goes off on) can do it, then surely other professionals can do the same or better. I'm not saying hire a guy off the street, but I'm sure somebody would like a promotion to TSN if they are hiring.

You know this from experience? I have never done radio PBP but I'm pretty sure that if I were calling the Grey Cup I would be able to figure out how to say Harris takes the hand off for 6 yards instead of "Keith Urban you're my idol *slobber* *slobber*". Tonnnnnnnnnnes of PBP guys do multiple sports it's not that hard. Football I'd imagine being easier since it's far slower then Hockey/Basketball.

Lol stay in school kids! This was done in North Kildonan....
-
Pederson is so unlikable regardless of his Green goggles. No way in heck they'd hire him. I can't imagine it being that hard to find a PBP guy... even our local radio guys (Moore/Edmonds) could do the job.
-
More Miller and Dunigan and the new guy which yet again I forgot his name!
-
And unlike WCW .... I'd assume AEW is it's own separate entity so no suits are going to interfere with it even if business isn't very profitable. As for NFL owners.... I assume once more of the dinosaur old white guy owners die off and the club gets passed down to family or to businesses.... maybe then the owners will be more supportive?

Local news.... https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/manitoba-metis-federation-winnipeg-homeless-camp-1.5597646 I drove by yesterday for the first time in a few months and holy cow this camp is out of control now. I'm amazed that the city hasn't done anything yet as it looks like a huge fire hazard.

He has skills in throwing a football .... I'd expect much more intelligence coming from a doctor. I would say President also but...... 🙄 A rich man doesn't mean you excel in public speaking.
-
It took me over a minute to realize that it was a spelling mistake for protests lol.... I was trying to understand why he made a strong statement on condoms lol. Is he the only non white NFL owner? I'd assume most are super old white guys?
-
As I said before.... why do people listen to professional athletes expecting them to be some source of great wisdom. Drew Brees knows how to throw a football.... people should only listen to him on his opinions on how to run an offense and how to throw the pigskin.....
-
Maybe they are using his WWE profile stats lol
-
An ice cream places needs a really small foot print... wouldn't be profitable unless rent was pretty much free.
-
The only problem is that whatever I end up buying... I will have to buy something else at an equivalent value for the wife to justify/keep the peace... that's why the weber is a more ideal price point lol.
-
Never thought that this would ever happen, Bush isn't as bad as people made him out to be. Remember the days when the media would simply mock Bush for being a bit "simple" .... I'm sure the States would prefer having that problem again over the current regime.
-
You really just don't understand it's sad. Also who said I'm white? Also the Folklorama example is a great example showing how awesome at least Winnipeg is where we bring multiple cultures together and celebrate them all. Why would you ever **** on that?
-
I don't agree. That's like me saying poverty is poverty.... and then compare the poverty in Canada where someone has to live in a smaller house and can only afford a 40" tv.... then comparing it to poverty in Africa where people can't even eat or live under a roof. As for racism....... are you suggesting that a place like Winnipeg isn't accepting of other cultures and it is the same as deep south United States? I recommend going to Folkorama (next year) and you'll see a wide variety of people and I have not personally seen anyone protest or attend a show in a KKK outfit. Canada is often looked upon as one of the best examples in the world for being accepting of other cultures.

They would have to pay folks to go see an Argos / Als game.....
-
Where are the police.... seems like a lot of easy tickets to give out.
-
They could do delivery of concessions assuming that the club could find an APP to use quickly. The Mariners used to allow people to order via their Nintendo DS's back when Nintendo owned the club.
-
So a typical guy in IT then? Why do people think that if someone is mega-rich that they are someone that the general public should listen and actually a give a **** on what they say.
-
I don't disagree with that Ed. No one is saying racism doesn't exist in Canada but to compare how it is in Canada compared to the States it's no where near the same.

A national standard would be the ideal solution, unfortunately every county and and every area has completely different standards and training at this point in time. It also doesn't help that the amount of funding and hiring practices wildly vary. Some places you literally sign up and they hand you a gun and tell you to serve justice. What would be ideal (my opinion) is if they had a national policing where everyone is trained the same (properly) , paid the same and where the officers move around and get assigned posts across the country. Basically the RCMP in the States. This way it would help prevent local corruption, you wouldn't have a bunch of Cletus's policing in the South and hopefully it would weed out bad candidates and hire more quality people.
