  1. PS: It was hardly a frenzy maybe more like a brief flurry.
  2. Getting back to an old theme, if/when Hurl and Neufeld are released, that changes the cap picture.
  3. I just hope Knox is the answer at MLB, or we're going to be in much the same position as last year on defence.
  4. Now you're just making fun of Taynted.....
  5. Two reasons: one-they will pay money and two-couldn't get on anywhere else.
  6. That, and the mandatory prefrontal lobotomy so they wouldn't stand out.
  7. Thanks once again for the work to create the synopsis.
  8. And he would come through in a crunch.
  9. It just feels like there's January in Winnipeg all year around.
  10. You realize that all this talk involving a combine will make the Rider fans here all moist and tingly.
  11. And here I would have thought that Regina pickups would have been found at the Humane Society.
  12. Alas, 'tis true, 'tis true.
  13. Schadenfruede. Das is gut. Sehr gut!
  14. Where there's smoke, there's usually fire. Where there's poop happening, there's Chris Jones.
  15. It's called "plausible deniability". I wonder how much longer the Riders' board of directors can let this farce go on. Funny enough, firing Jones for cause would probably improve things in Pile O' Bones. Jim Barker, anyone?
  16. Yup. Getting a sack every now and again is great, but the D-lineman has to be involved in every play, at least gumming things up rather than being a speed bump 9 of 10 plays.
  17. Cummings was supposed to be a force up the middle of the D-line but for one reason or another, wasn't. His contribution can be easily replaced. The same goes for our tag-team Import defensive ends,
  18. And Trump has said he would consider publishing the names of every undocumented alien who commits a crime. Why not- it worked for Hitler scapegoating the Jews.
  19. About two weeks before Trump was sworn into office, a bipartisan committee met for a CIA briefing regarding Trump and Putin/Russia involvement in the election and possible influence over Trump's presidency. The meeting was "sub rosa" and all the attendees had to swear to keep secret the content. One Democratic congressman came out and said that he could not discuss the infromation but he was "shaken" and wanted an investigation but was voted down by the Republican members of the committee.
  20. This may have been the funniest, most biting, most accurate skit on SNL for years.
  21. Robert Reich Has a Chilling Theory About Those Berkeley Protesters "I saw these people. They all looked almost paramilitary. They were not from the campus." By Alexandra Rosenmann / AlterNet February 3, 2017 18.5K390 Print 911 COMMENTS Photo Credit: CNN/YouTube In the wake of a University of California Berkeley protest that saw demonstrators burn campus lights and a sign for Breitbart News editor Milo Yiannopoulos in effigy, Donald Trump has threatened to cut federal funding from public colleges infringing on free speech. But at least one Berkeley professor believes the so-called alt-right may have instigated the violence. "I was there for part of last night and I know what I saw. Those people were not Berkeley students," former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich told CNN's Don Lemon, reiterating the statement issued by the university regarding the incident. "Those people were outsiders, agitators. I’ve never seen them before. There’s rumors that they actually were right-wingers. They were a part of a group that were organized and ready to create the kind of tumult and danger you saw that forced the police to cancel the event." Turning to Trump's remarks, Reich highlighted Berkeley's history as the "home of free speech." "Donald Trump, when he says Berkeley doesn’t respect free speech rights, that’s a complete distortion of the truth. I mean, Berkeley opened its biggest auditorium to this right-wing Breitbart News character, this hateful, odious person. They said, ‘Free speech is the most important thing we stand for,’ and it was these outsiders who caused the police to finally come in and have to cancel it," Reich pointed out. “You think it’s a strategy by Yiannopoulos, or right-wingers?" asked Lemon. "They put this on in an effort to show there’s no free speech on a college campus like UC Berkeley?” “I wouldn’t bet against it, Don," Reich told him. "Again, I saw these people. They all looked almost paramilitary. They were not from the campus. And I’ve heard — again, I don’t want to say factually, but I’ve heard there was some relationship here between these people and the right wing and the right-wing movement that is affiliated with Breitbart News."
  22. America is now in a truly dark place, but did not get there overnight. Racism has been a part of the creation of America and a continuing theme over the generations, never really gone. About a hundred years ago, the "Sleeping Prophet" Edgar Cayce predicted that America would likely come to a second civil war, based on race and economic inequality with geological upheavals following.
  23. Trump would definitely be "offensive" as a lineman. Or anywhere else, come to think of it,
  24. OTTAWA — A new online video shows Conservative leadership candidate Kevin O'Leary firing automatic weapons, including a machine gun, during a visit to a gun range — a move one Liberal cabinet minister calls "dumb" and "insensitive." Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale takes issue with the timing of the video, which emerged the same day as funeral services for three of the six victims of last weekend's mosque shooting in Quebec City. The short clip, posted on the video sharing service Vimeo, shows O'Leary blazing away at paper targets with a number of firearms, including what looks like a heavy-calibre sniper rifle. A screengrab of the post O'Leary shared on Facebook and eventually deleted. (Photo: Kevin O'Leary/Facebook) O'Leary is a businessman and star of the U.S. reality-TV show "Shark Tank" who has declared his candidacy for the leadership of the federal Conservative party. He has said his business savvy will help turn around the economy and create jobs. In Quebec City today, several thousand mourners including Prime Minister Justin Trudeau paid their respects to shooting victims Abdelkrim Hassane, Khaled Belkacemi and Aboubaker Thabti. There were also prayers at the service for the three other victims — Azzeddine Soufiane, Mamadou Tanou Barry and Ibrahima Barry. "I don't comment on the strange and bizarre behaviour of Conservative leadership candidates," said Goodale, who then characterized O'Leary's timing as "obviously crass, insensitive and exceedingly dumb."

  25. The betting is that he will be deposed as incompetent within a year, and by his own party. The afterglow of sweeping both houses and the presidency is fading rapidly and the hangover has begun.
