  1. unpleasant to hear so many people cheering for the other team. have they lost three straight at home? ouch.
  2. Good luck now two nothing. 28 shots to 13.
  3. If the Jets keep this up that will become booing. Seems like the only guy consistently trying is Tanev. (radio only) radio guys mentioned that Jets D backs up too far into their own end. Coach must be telling them to do that.
  4. Very odd this Jets team is.
  5. There is a street in Transcona named Rod Black Crescent. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=rod+black+crescent+winnipeg+map&atb=v135-2__&ia=maps&iaxm=maps How many of you Black - critics have that? (kidding) or, maybe it's named after some other Rod Black. (kidding)
  6. I watched the condensed game ... Islanders, I think Connor was outplayed by the other goalie... the Islander goalie made some remarkable saves. the Jets had two or three close in chances that he made outstanding saves on.
  7. On Thursday, Florida Power and Light (FPL) announced that it would retire two natural gas plants and replace those plants with what is likely to be the world's largest solar-powered battery bank when it's completed in 2021. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2019/03/florida-utility-to-close-natural-gas-plants-build-massive-solar-powered-battery/?comments=1 Thanks to Elon Musk for his guarantee to Australia a year or two ago about his battery storage: "Tesla’s Australia battery project is garnering global recognition and forcing companies to rethink the traditional energy power plants structure. The Tesla 100MW/129MWh powerpack project in South Australia proved to pay some dividends or at the very least save tens of millions of dollars according to a recent report, again delivering on a promise made by the eccentric founder Elon Musk." article about Musks battery in Australia: good article: https://interestingengineering.com/tesla-battery-installed-in-south-australia-saved-the-region-40-million-in-its-first-year rewnewable will win: cheaper, more reliable, and reduces emissions of greenhouse gas.
  8. There was no pause or hiatus. The science is gold standard. To say otherwise is nonsense. https://insideclimatenews.org/news/18122018/global-warming-hiatus-pause-never-happened-studies-explain-climate-change-risbey-oreskes-mann
  9. TSN had Mackenzie on this morning, he made sense, he said that a number of teams are having the same kind of season, up and down, as the Jets. He mentioned some teams, forget the names. Season is too long. back to back games, four games in six nights, the travel, has to be part of it.
  10. I blocked that person, but it's still worth refuting his posts. Pretty easy to do that, but it gets tiresome. he doesn't read past the headline of his own links.
  11. Jekyl and Hyde team. Now radio tellling me how great the Islanders are.
  12. edit
  13. I used to think there wasn't a lot of difference between R and D in the US. I was wrong. The Republicans, at this point, are vermin. Here's hoping they get completely, permanently wiped off the electoral map, and slink off to their lobbying payoffs for good. Good to finally see some anger and backbone from a Democrat. Maybe the courageous and honourable Ocasio Cortez is inspiring them to finally stand up for their country. No question, that's what this is about. I can't believe there are people posting here that see some good in Trump. What the ****.
  14. sickening and also hypocritical https://www.sfgate.com/opinion/brinkley/article/Afghanistan-s-dirty-little-secret-3176762.php also, https://www.neonmag.fr/bacha-bazi-la-sale-coutume-de-la-police-afghane-fait-la-joie-des-talibans-474992.html "Fighting for freedom (to rape children.)"
  15. There are other countries that permit, and have carried out death sentence for homosexuality. Just checked.... wikipedia thirteen countries (or parts of them) impose the death penalty for "Same-sex sexual acts". These countries comprise 6% of the countries in the United Nations. Of these thirteen countries, four are in Africa: Sudan, Nigeria, Somalia, and Mauritania. Nine are in Asia: Iran, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Qatar, UAE, Iraq, and Daesh (ISIS/ISIL) territories. None are in the Americas, Europe, or Oceania. (and carry it out) fundamentalism at work.
  16. https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/intelligence-report/2011/inside-dhs-former-top-analyst-says-agency-bowed-political-pressure Of course the report was accurate. "Withdrawan" by Obama. Obama could always be counted on to back down, when the going got a bit tough. Republicans are much tougher and more determined /nasty than the Democrats.
  17. Why isn't this a big deal? What weapons do they have? Trump goes silent. business insider
  18. China moves aggressively into renewable energy. https://www.asiatimes.com/2019/03/article/beijing-wants-100000-hydrogen-cars-by-2025/ Aftermath of record setting snow storm .....record setting Nebraska flooding:
  19. If you're a republican, you can wear a diaper, screw a hooker down in Brazil, while supposedly happily married, and you're still good. Just need to say a few prayers. The only thing that they can't tolerate, is being gay. that'll get you kicked right out. Like the "wide stance in the washroom cubicle guy" ..... he's gone.
  20. Do or die is right about Barr..... https://www.npr.org/2019/01/14/684553791/william-barr-supported-pardons-in-an-earlier-d-c-witch-hunt-iran-contra Saint Ronald Reagan: whatever the **** that means.
  21. Maybe with this, apple will shake the networks out of their apathy.
  22. I would say that alone is being behind it. NFL is using people like Rod Woodson,Terrell Davis to cover the games. Gives the league credibility. CFL fans are always excited when our league gets shown and watched in the US. I just can't see it being a threat to the CFL.
  23. I don't think it will hurt the CFL. There are too many good players coming out of US college, that don't get to play in the NFL, to result in a shortage of players.
