  1. Neufeld is back on a one year
  2. May want to revisit Wieneke skill set. He is 100% a deep ball guy who can go make the hard catches. I believe he had the #1 play in the 10 plays of the year with a fantastic deep ball catch.
  3. I think Kongbo gets another NFL look and sticks down there for a bit.
  4. I said it earlier that Trump will never see the inside of a jail cell. That's just not how American justice works.
  5. Still can't understand simple English eh? Still trying to "trigger" me eh? It's ok if you want to continue using a word, no one is gonna hurt you. I didn't realize you had such a personal connection to it, my bad.
  6. Wasn't Trump supposed to be arrested and in Jail by now? I seem to remember something about that...
  7. Those are the only things they can do in 1 week. If it's to give kids a chance at getting another shot or the first, then it should be a 2 week window. We keep pushing the inevitable back and back like COVID is going to vanish. I'm so done with our "It'll be their problem soon" type of governing which makes passing the buck to the next generation to save some $ look like the best choice. SPEND SOME ******* MONEY AND IMPROVE SOME ****!!
  8. Pushing in person back 1 week so teachers/schools can prepare....even though there will be kids in school that also need to have teachers present. And what exactly are these "extra efforts" that they're talking about? I'm betting nothing that will actually improve the chances of my kids NOT getting covid there. 1 week is not enough time to improve ventilation in every classroom in the province....which is exactly what needs getting done. Anything short of that is borderline a waste of time. COVID is not going anywhere, it's about time our leadership pulled their heads out of their asses and started realizing that.
  9. That's fair. I suppose I could debate it with someone who is looking to have one. But facts remain the same. Marijuana came to represent Cannabis via racism/propaganda
  10. seems like you may need some reading comprehension help. lol cool story. I don't care what you think about left wing etc. Facts don't either. Marijuana came to represent Cannabis via racism/propaganda, prove me wrong... People seem to think I'm saying no one is allowed to use the word marijuana. And that's fine if you want to think I said something I've never said. It's fine to call me woke/left wing/nut job etc etc simply because I'm presenting facts. I guess that's what happens?
  11. again...it's not a racist term. But it's ORIGINS in being used to describe cannabis are due to racism and propaganda. This isn't a debatable thing. This is just well documented history regardless of how many people don't want to believe it.
  12. nah they'll leave that **** for Friday at 4pm
  13. Marijuana mean cannabis Used by old time people to make cannabis illegal..booo bad guys... Adopted by modern culture. Cannabis still proper word. Is that more on your level? Or should I try again?
  14. Mostly just because I'm correct. It's one hundred percent nit picky. But I will still correct people. I'm not a fan of using made up terms that came about via propaganda etc. Other people can say what they want. I will continue to correct them
  15. I never said marijuana isn't used in reference to cannabis. I just said it isn't technically correct and it's use is based on propaganda and racism.
  16. I have a feeling both Jeff's will be the first and announced together.
  17. You can insult me all you want. Doesn't change the fact that Marijuana is a tobacco like plant native to Mexico. Here ya go, maybe now you'll understand? "According to the second edition of Webster's New International Dictionary. the word originally denoted a species of wild tobacco, Nicotiana glauca.[20] The use of "marihuana" in American English increased dramatically in the 1930s, when it was preferred as an exotic-sounding alternative name during debates on the drug's use.[8] It has been suggested that in the United States the word was promoted by opponents of the drug, who wanted to stigmatize it with a "foreign-sounding name".[9] According to Lizzie Post, the word "marijuana" is deprecated because "in the early 1900s, the term marijuana was purposely used to negatively associate it with the Latino community."[21] The word was codified into law and became part of common American English with the passing of the Marihuana Tax Act of 1937."
  18. What am I saying that's wrong?
  19. I'm not frustrated lol. I think it's rather funny that people disagree with actual facts and well known history. Yes Marijuana (you'll notice the government uses another spelling for some odd reason) is a common term. I was simply stating (once again) that it's not actually correct. I then explained how it came to be synonymous with Cannabis. That's it, that's all. Marijuana/marihuana will be out of the lexicon eventually. It's just a matter of time. And the most important law governing Cannabis is called what? Hint it's not the Marijuana act.
  20. It certainly makes thing a bit more interesting. BLM bonus is 100k due mid January.
  21. It's not a racial term. It was first used as a reference to cannabis to confuse the public because it sounded foreign (specifically Mexican) and used in racial propaganda. "Marijuana makes black men rape white women". This is not a theory, you can find the ads/warnings today. No one is suppressing anything lol. Jesus christ get off the soap box. It's just not a correct term. That's it. That's all. Laws or not, it's not what it is. Marijuana is one plant....cannabis is another. How they came to mean the same thing is based on propaganda and racism. I was giving you a history lesson. No need to get your panties in a bunch.
  22. Yeah thats not what I meant. It was used due to its "foreign" sound back in the 1930s. There were literal ads talking about a new drug "Marijuana" and how it was making black and Hispanic men want to rape and kill white women. If they said it was cannabis, prohibition would have never happened, as it was used medically for many different reasons....and hemp was the major crop at the time....so instead they used Marijuana the scary drug from Mexico. Anyways, I don't hold any ill will towards people who say/use Marijuana. I just like to let it be known that's not what it's called. There's no reason to not call it cannabis, and there are reasons to stop calling it Marijuana. That's all.
  23. I know. But it Doesn't mean it's correct.
