  1. Officially the last days of ourbombers on here... with a lot of the same characters

    I posted the nytimes article already - that’s how this conversation began - we can easily find current articles discussing Sweden’s approach on cnn, bbc and there’s even a monk debate about it - but again I don’t expect you to read anything with substance

    Excellent demonstration of my point about dogmatic thinking and using outdated information I am talking about the second wave and moving forward - as in the death rate during the lockdown months versus Sweden’s approach and you do know that we consider T cells as a measure of immunity more than antibodies anyway would love to chat - but I know your schtick so why bother my original reference was to Italy being used as a success story while Sweden is still villainized yet has a lower per capita mortality and case rate - you just demonstrated my point

    They took a long term approach that looked at the overall health of their society... it’s not some ridiculous economy over lives as is portrayed They actually made the same mistakes as us in terms of long term care homes - and accidentally elevated their death rate - but regardless it is very interesting to watch their curve remaining flat and their death rate at or near zero - herd immunity has become a dirty word but Sweden may have achieved it will find out this October for sure But skyrocketing overdose rates are fine - because those are different lives... got it

    I suggest you review the current information available. You are repeating dogma from this April when everyone denounced Sweden's long-term approach. For the last three months, Sweden is averaging comparable or possibly lower per capita covid deaths than Canada Maybe something will change but at present there is absolutely no second wave in Sweden - but feel free to keep villainizing them instead of learning something

    Kind of a strange conclusion given that Italy and Sweden have essentially the same per capita case rates now.... but completely different approaches.

    Heard her on CBC tonight... makes some very sensible points and people are finally listening https://www.google.ca/amp/s/nationalpost.com/opinion/why-draconian-measures-may-not-work-two-experts-say-we-should-prioritize-those-at-risk-from-covid-19-than-to-try-to-contain-the-uncontainable/wcm/90236ee3-5c4d-4dc8-98bf-ba25111a235d/amp/

    Seems to be no threats of lockdown over there... and no second wave... and no masks https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2020/09/29/world/europe/sweden-coronavirus-strategy.amp.html
  9. Seeing lots of comments this morning about how both candidates acted like children... that seems like a win for Trump. All he needs to do is sow chaos.

    Ah so we can't identify the specific Hutterite Colonies because that is a human rights infraction... or tell anyone that it was actually the middle management of Brandon Maple Foods (after one family returning from vacation and not isolating) but let's villainize King's Head... what a joke.
  11. I don't see how you pick anyone other than Sanderson or Schneider... I'd even reach for Guhle before Lundell or Lapierre Jets have drafted how many C now? Maurice will just not play a rookie at 2C... so drafting yet another C when Roslovic and Copp are in our system and 'developed' and still we trade for Eakin... I don't see the benefit.
  12. I'll be shocked if he doesn't win in a landslide... Either way, there are so many potential charges and/or embarassments waiting that he will never leave office.
  13. I think the only Laine trades I'd look at is Laine for Jack Hughes straight up Laine for Trochek and Pesce (I think Carolina only makes this deal because of Pesce's shoulder) Otherwise I dont see any trades that both teams would make... and I wouldnt trade Laine within the conference

    Covid-19

    Less than 1% of tests result in a positive result and 1% of those are fatal...
  15. Hiring people with experience coaching at various levels or experience as a hockey player is not ‘recycling’ Hiring Paul Maurice was recycling
  16. I still don’t understand how the CFL isn’t even trying to stay on the radar - fly guys in for a skills day or event or something... cdns can fly to the states - maybe do it there... just something - maybe for Grey Cup week
  17. Obviously you mean ‘besides’ Berube, Brindamour, Cooper, Cassidy, Bednar, Green, Keene, Ward, Colliton, Boughner, Hynes, Blashill, etc But aside from half the coaches in the league, yes it’s an old boys club hahah

    Love how you have changed the narrative to make Hutterite colonies out like innocent victims - been watching the pivot for a while there were clusters on Hutterite colonies - this is just a simple fact - like all the rest of us - you are affected by Manitoba and Canada creating extreme and generalized rules to protect the masses - there is no ‘scapegoat’ just stop it already hutterite and the maple leaf foods cluster (originating with a group of middle management) are over - that’s why cases are falling rapidly as always the prairies remain almost free of covid with an occasional cluster - everything that was expected
  19. Well Vancouver was like watching the jets...
  20. nico hischier for Laine is an interesting trade
  21. Its absurb to say that the system was secure. GWB admin was absolutely corrupt and stole massive amounts of $$ from the American people - Trump is not an aberration, he is a natural progression - Roger Stone, etc have all been in place since Nixon... The question is... was the 'system' ever not corrupt or do we just have more access to information now?

    Whoa check this conspiracy... Covid is acting exactly like every other coronavirus that ever existed... #mindblown Herd immunity was and still is our best hope - there is no vaccine coming, the virus is weakening - but we are keeping it stronger for longer - and we are still not adequately protecting the ones actually threatened by covid... https://www.businessinsider.com/long-term-coronavirus-immunity-t-cells-2020-8?fbclid=IwAR0Bv_6fde3c_gXY4lkN3m70ksLxFtHZdAqJCWT-cNxwSSvCOUjZsOb6eWQ

    We have known this for four months now - but if someone mentions it you’re call crazy the predominant strain is more contagious but far less deadly - hence the lack of hospitalizations conciding with cases

    Oh you're right... the sky is falling. Cases are 'spiking... everyone run. There's no conspiracy. Just groupthink based on caseload and the deaths of two people in their 90s. General population paying for irresponsibility of a few clusters.
