Surprised it took this long. PCs are following tradition.- US Politics
The only hope (albeit a slim one) for American democracy is for some really stiff sentences to be doled out to the conspirators. The problem with even that is that the next GOP president is likely to pardon them all. Offences such as treason should not be commutable as they strike at the heart of democratic government. No wonder more and more Americans have become cynical about their system of government.- CHAMPS at ALS GDT
I hope McGuire gets some significant time next game with a full complement of O-line and receivers. This will give an indication whether he has been unfairly maligned or if he has the right stuff.- US Politics

Michael Flynn Demands 'One Religion Under God' At Far-Right Rally 11/14/2021 12:04am EST | Updated 11 hours ago In his latest journey to the edge of extreme, Donald Trump’s former national security adviser and felon Michael Flynn called for a single religion in America. “If we are going to have one nation under God — which we must — we have to have one religion,” Flynn said in San Antonio at a stop for the far-right “ReAwaken America” tour. “One nation under God, and one religion under God.” Such a vision is completely contrary to the Constitution’s guarantee of freedom of religion, and the separation of church and state.

The Washington Post is still owned by "Reverend" Moon, I believe who is a an advocate of Reagan, the Bushes and Trump. If you start giving criminal immunity to government officials, where does it end? This sounds close to the "I was only following orders" plea of the Nazis who were sent to the gallows. It didn't save them and under law, if you counsel someone to break the law, you are also guilty.- 3 stars plus scape goat 2nd last pre season edition
I think that is too simple an explanation. Adams looked disinterested at times, Cooper was an unmitigated disaster, McGuire was ineffectual. The patchwork O-line did not help, but I would bet that when McGuire threw those interceptions, he had ample time almost every time. I do recall one occasion when he was under pressure and ought to have chucked the ball into the stands. That said, he did nothing to promote his case for being a good backup. Yes he threw two good passes in a row ending in a TD, but that does not change his sub-par performance. Maybe Pierce should have spoon-fed him a better game plan but that would not have improved his accuracy, or the poor Bomber running game, for that matter. The changes in the O-line were probably responsible for that.- US Politics
But they were godless pinko leftists- that makes them fair game.- 3 stars plus scape goat 2nd last pre season edition
Patched up or not, the OL gave McGuire enough time and opened holes for the RB. Montreal didn't even get a sack. And we assumed that O'Shea and Co. would never let the team get complacent and sleepwalk through the game.- 3 stars plus scape goat 2nd last pre season edition
Adams has been targeted so rarely of late, that it is easy to understand him being unaware that the ball was coming at him. I kinda remember another Bomber a few yards further up the field in a straight line, so that may have been the primary target with the ball being underthrown. For the record, there are many very nice asses out there.- Covid-19

Regardless of how we feel about the Riders, they have built a great fan network and marketing. There are several CFL teams that could learn from them.- CHAMPS at ALS GDT
You have pointed out that of the four aforementioned QBs, only one turned out to be good. Durant was good for one year, Bethel-Thompson is average on a good day and he has had few of those. And Manziel........- Bye Bob (Irving Retirement)
And a much tougher gig to find positives in the Argo's play.- CHAMPS at ALS GDT
McGuire threw two passes in a row that were good and resulted in a Bomber TD, the rest of the game, he played very poorly, and it sure as spit that wasn't the result of the rain or poor pass protection. He underthrew, threw too hard or too softly or right into the arms of a defender. Very few positives for him in this game. No doubt the coaches will break the film down but there will be no public criticism, so this is a dead issue. I doubt we will see McGuire in a game again barring a catastrophic injury to Collaros.- Week 15 - Non-Champ Edition
I was really hoping that the Elks would rouse themselves and smite the Riders hip and thigh. Doesn't look to be happening.- CHAMPS at ALS GDT
Does anyone have the stats about how many passes McGuire completed vs interceptions (including the one put of bounds)?- CHAMPS at ALS GDT
That is a glowing tribute to the defence and no one else.- CHAMPS at ALS GDT
If McGuire stayed on the field, we could have- he got worse as the game wore on. - Canadian Politics
