  1. I did a few years back, it was good but more of a Canadian diner with some German influence in the dishes. Mostly variations of schnitzels with fries.
  2. It was a chain restaurant that was across North America so not really special to only Winnipeg. I was surprised that Gasthaus Gutenburger wasn't on the list. That place is sorely missed and Winnipeg definitely could use a real german restaurant.
  3. XFL.... XFL 2.0.... Arena Football League..... USFL..... Or are we comparing the little old CFL with billion dollar leagues like MLB, NFL, NBA?
  4. Always next year....
  5. That is a shame, the place was really really good for breakfast and lunch.
  6. I think Stanback is completely shot, he's not the same guy as he was 3 - 4 years ago. That is a big drop off.
  7. I assume they didn't know before signing the lease, sometimes the process takes over a year before builds are commenced. I looked at the the Press'D web page for the other location, you are correct those sandwiches look underwhelming. Not as nice as Cha-chi's and more like a fancier version of the sandwiches you can get at a gas station.
  8. Utah is booming with lots of people with money moving away from California to Salt Lake City. Lots of disposable income in SLC so it makes sense that they'd jump ahead and get a franchise.
  9. Can we have a commish that isn't 100 years old.
  10. The term Pot heads was cool 26 years ago when this movie came out!
  11. He already did.. the balls of the guy to make a book saying "if I did it".... That guy was scum and had they not had the Rodney King stuff a few years before then OJ would of certainly went to jail for the murders.
  12. Definition of throw the books - informal: to punish (someone) as severely as possible The term doesn't necessarily need to be used in context as a criminal matter. Are you not familiar with how message boards work and how people voice their opinions? Did you want to write down a list of what you want to read so that everyone can follow a template? To dumb it down since you can't comprehend, I said Chad is an idiot , but being an idiot shouldn't equal him being severely punished either by the league or legally or anywhere based on what has been presented so far.
  13. Chad sounds like the stereotypically "Chad". That being said as annoying and stupid as he is, I don't see enough based on what is written in the article to throw the books at the guy. Sounds like a cocky athlete with a bruised ego who threw a hissy fit. While embarrassing , it's not criminal.
  14. My attitude of having concern of the sharp increase of crime and violent crimes? Was it that I provided facts that you cannot dispute? That's a weird take?
  15. For those who do not have Kodi.... a good ad blocker + sportsurge.net can get you most streams for any sports.
  16. As of 2022 - Winnipeg has the highest rate of homicides and by a large margin compared to the other large cities in Canada. Also Winnipeg/Manitoba has seen the largest increase in crimes once again by a much larger margin compared to the other provinces. I'd say it's been a noticeable change in recent years. I also wouldn't compare us to the States since it's not an apples to apples comparison. Homicide numbers: https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/daily-quotidien/231129/t003b-eng.htm
  17. You are not missing out on anything. We used to buy lunch mates and similar things for our daughter for lunches and then realized they taste awful, heavily processed, and are over priced. It's much better and cheaper to just buy real meat and cheese and DIY.
  18. Yikes if true! https://globalnews.ca/news/10397333/winnipeg-assaults-burger-king/
  19. Brandon replied to Rich's topic in General Discussion
    Very interesting interview, he confirms that AEW is a mess and opens up about what happened with him.
  20. Is this a bad time to say that Hollywood has been doing this since the beginning? It was worse in the 30's - 50's where they pilled up young girls and did unimaginable things with them. Read about the Wizard of Oz and what they did with Judy Garland it's insane. Same with the music industry. look at people like Steven Tyler in the old days taking a 14 year old on tour with him and yet people never really gave a crap this many years later. Nearly every place of entertainment has some sort of black cloud covering it. Sadly money hides lots of horrible behaviours.
  21. Only a boomer would google search the origins of Boujee
  22. Confirmed.... iHeart is a boomer Bougie in french is candle Boujee is slang for luxurious/swag
  23. Doesn't this happen with this team nearly every year though?
  24. Hey I complimented Selkirk and Gimli They are both very lovely places to spend an afternoon at!
  25. We went to the Childrens Museum a few weekends ago with other couples and children and outside of the Forks area was still sketchy. Homeless camps and questionable people wandering around that I wouldn't feel safe. Within the Forks it was very busy and a nice mix of all ages and types of people. The food court is really good at the Forks , above average offerings and it's a decent atmosphere. Was only accosted by one methed out dude but thankfully he wasn't aggressive. Talking with the other parents they hadn't been to the Forks in a long while because of the safety concerns from the frequent attacks and were all perhaps reconsidering since this visit wasn't all that terrible. The next day I get sent this link: https://globalnews.ca/news/10354158/teens-arrested-charged-altercation-security-forks-market-winnipeg-police/ Missed the incident by only 30 minutes, but once again re-affirmed why the area sucks and even more reason why I won't be bringing my family back at the Forks anytime soon. As for your comment, I have several friends and even myself at one point who had moved away and then either misremember Winnipeg or see it through nostalgia-glasses... but they all romanticize coming back to the Peg. Usually it goes away after coming back for a few weeks and the honeymoon period wears off. Fishing at the Forks in theory makes perfect sense... unfortunately the more likely result will be trying it out and getting tired of always looking over your shoulder and never being able to relax and you ending up with everyone else going to lockport , Selkirk, or Gimli where you can relax and have a nice safe and peaceful fishing experience.
