    Covid-19

    So Manitoba instituting 'isolation centres' to force people to self-isolate even if they've only been in contact with someone who has tested positive... thanks to a few small clusters. Insane. I can't imagine what things would be like if this actually was as contagious and deadly as we believe...
  2. Well that would have brought us up to $320,000... only $29,680,000 to go...
  3. Wow - I always believed they would get the deal done. Sure sounds like Toronto was deadweight and Ambrosie was unrealistic. What a bummer.
  4. Ha still so bitter about the N95 masks... I stand corrected!
  5. Boring hockey but what a great playoff format
  6. Umm nope. US citizens pay US taxes...
  7. Kulikov and buff gone - that’s what $10-12 mill? Little is likely retiring... that’s a lot of cap space theres some decent big D on the market - we will get Dillon or Hamonic or both or trade niku and Copp for Trouba... jets are really dropping the ball on developing a second C though - don’t see us trading for one - Roslo needs to step up lafreniere will be nice for seven minutes a game while Maurice seasons him for five years...
  8. No let’s just keep targeting Tkachuk

    https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/amp/business-53664354 go figure.
  10. CFL could easily be covering that with the CERB wage subsidy like the rest of us... I just don’t understand the package they are asking for - seems like they just asked for a loan without a real plan CERB wage subsidy covers all those people listed to 70-80% - BDC has had a large scale CERB emergency loan program available for three months now - the interest is low on that even if it’s not interest free - plus you always have an option to negotiate for a forgiveable loan down the line would be good to see some details - I no longer see the roadblock facing the CFL
  11. I’m quibbling about the fact that it’s apples and oranges. And that sports fans are crying about how art is not important ha - the same way the rest of the country says sports are pointless
  12. Easy to take shots like this but this is a federally owned facility - not a private business - and not employing a majority of Americans CFL looks like it’s totally fumbles this funding request... first time for me that it looks like there will be no season
  13. Probably because no one gives a **** about hockey in August
  14. I just feel super disappointed for Trouba's dad and their sports app.
  15. There have been a lot of players who have used moves like this - slew foot, slide the stick under someone’s skate, jump to avoid a player with your elbows as high as possible - glen anderson comes to mind... it’s always intentional. That’s just the type of player he is

    Covid-19

    Are you talking about the Mennonites or the Hutterites- I’m confused now..,
  17. Playoff preseason - some really bad hockey
  18. He kicked him and cut him - even if not intentional you need to control your skates
  19. Calgary just followed the same game plan everyone uses against the jets - send a fore checker to hammer our D behind our net, lineup at the blue line to prevent zone entry.. without Scheifele it worked jets need to sign one or two big talented D - sad that Wheeler is our enforcer
  20. BDC charges higher interest rates because it’s a lender of last resort - however they have quietly forgiven loans once it’s all said and done - CFL is doing too much complaining and not enough creative thinking

    Covid-19

    I guess its fun to say how horribly out of control Alberta is... but again I don't see it The serious cases/deaths seem centred on the Good Samaritan nursing home https://edition.cnn.com/2020/07/30/health/t-cells-coronavirus-study-wellness/index.html?fbclid=IwAR1u8ZPOwkdACcgEMlkjNJH7bwWUzYDHik7uHjrbsP41xiUWnqsdciqKH2E Antibody testing is showing how rampant covid was in mid-May... 36000 Albertans infected before lockdown started. I'd be very interested to see tracking numbers of deaths and hospitalizations. New data for Canada is saying that beyond the 80% of deaths in nursing homes... 80% of the remaining deaths are minority/poverty related Seems like the only thing we aren't talking about is care for the elderly and the poor right now.
  22. Still delusional I see. That's reassuring.
  23. Another click bait headline... it’s good to read the article
