Lol that RT straight up mugged a DE and got away with it

Brown looking solid so far. Great choices, solid pocket awareness.

Tell me how horribly places with higher wages are doing compared to Winnipeg? You have the rest of Canada to compare us to, Winnipeg/MB must be absolutely killing it compared to the rest of the nation. Again, you're speaking as if Winnipeg isn't influenced by the globe. And we are. Until that changes, wages have to increase. If your business can not keep up, that is super shitty. If you'd like to change it, we need to start kicking global competitors out of our economy. That is quite literally the only solution, well I suppose you could also convince the rest of the world to pay liveable wages....but after that...anything else is just a band aid. oh i should also add, in a capitalist society (because BOOO Socialism) businesses fail all the time and are replaced by better ones. So if we're going to play make believe in the way we think our economy works. If you're business fails, it's your fault and you should start another with a better business plan.

This only works if we don't live in a global economy. When you apply it to the real world, the one we live in right now, keeping wages low = more poverty and that's it. Regardless of any new corporations coming to town to create jobs, regardless of any money pumped into industry etc etc. None of that matters. Raising the wage will force some out of business, that's unfortunate, but also the way it's supposed to go in this "capitalist" society we have. If your business can not change with the times, sorry, time to move on. Now turning the economy back into an industrial one, or one where it's based on what Canada creates for Canada would be great. But again, in a global economy, that is never going to happen. Not without huge (likely tragic) events taking place. So again, it's good but there's no way in hell I'm making people wait for that to occur. also, "draconian socialist government" as a phrase doesn't make sense. I'd like you to actually look up what socialism is. I'll give you a head start, if you're reading something that says socialist governments can be draconian, you should find another source.

As per our great premier, our wages have to stay competitive! Can't be raising wages all willy nilly. How will CEOs eat?

I could see Pipkin in SSK and or BC. Maybe even OTT.

the year preseason games changed to glorified scrimmages.

I think Prukop needs to have the game of his life to get a spot.

I'm fully expecting the Bombers to get pummeled tomorrow.

I don't think anyone counts Gray out. And to his credit, when he's in he's been very good. But "chance to start" is implying he hasn't been given an opportunity to win starting jobs...when he has. And has not been able to win those jobs.

You new to preseason games?

I'm expecting less than a quarter of work from Collaros. Hoping to see more of Borsa and Rene on Defence.

I really liked his post game interview. Talked about his performance and some things he should have done better. But also addressed last years CGY game and how he was trying to be so careful with the ball to not create turnovers and hiw that mindset led to mistakes and Ultimately turnovers. I thought he looked far better than prukop and I expect him to be the #2 this year.

I swear I saw something about a family day at the stadium for kids etc. Like they've done in the past with inflatable castles and games etc etc as well as ring pick up for season ticket holders. But i can't find anything...

I used to like poke fun at how bad the CFL and or TSN was at marketing the game....It's no longer a joke. It's become a serious problem that the league needs to fix asap. This league is ******* doomed.

But hey, we'll get to listen to some shitty ass country pop tune for the next 6 months! That'll get people pumped!

I thought it was the right call, but I've hated that rule for a while now. What does it matter if a puck goes in off a skate?

I could have sworn I saw an update saying they were going to be showing both bomber games. But I guess not. Lame.

delete

So TSN and the CFL have two employees/former players involved in this and couldn't even retweet this ****? lol. the NFL is advertising for their Thanksgiving games already. But yeah the ratio is the problem with the CFL. There just is no vision for growing this game it seems. I have no faith in the league to actually change what needs changing.

I believe you have the CFL mixed up with the Justice system. The CFL is under no obligation to prove anything. Also **** Saunders. Hope a couple hours (yes this went on for hours) was worth the jail time. I'm guessing teams won't touch him and that he will likely be banned from signing a contract

But won't this inevitably lead to the teams with the best Canadians getting more Canadian talent. I'm not sure it's a solution to anything, but I do see it creating more problems

I'm going to stay off twitter for the rest of the day due to the south shooting stuff (it took over my afternoon/evening yesterday) so if anyone sees an update about the CBA please post it here!

Cruz saying there should only be one way in and out of schools. And armed guards should be posted at said door. You see it's not that there are too many guns. There are too many doors. Schools that look and act like prison is the future! That's what the kids of America need! Ted Cruz is a brilliant brilliant man.

Man I hope the game happens tomorrow. I'm done waiting for more football.
