  1. And don't forget about Kwanzaa and Festivus!!1
  2. A "Coup?" Like the Conservatives and Reform untied to oust the Liberals? If it was the sole pressure of the opposition, then why did not Harper impose a fiscally conservative budget regimen each year when he had a clear majority?
  3. Except that Harper didn't have a minority government for three of the five deficit years, and clung to power only by asking the pliable governor-general to do something never done before in Canadian history- prorogue Parliament when there was every reason to believe that Harper was going to lose a non-confidence motion.
  4. Unlike say, Harper, who ran deficits 5 of the seven years he was in power. He didn't raise taxes, but borrowed to pass the debt down to the next government. It has been the wont of Tories to make token tax cuts after bewailing the state of affairs and then reward themselves and their cronies while slashing vital government services to people like veterans. Government is supposed to balance the needs of all parts of the society they have a mandate to govern and not favour one over another as a matter of policy.
  5. Think again. The PCs in Alberta lost due to their own stupidity, corruption, mismanagement and intolerance. Harper lost because of much the same reason. How many of the things that make Canada a great place to live (UIC, universal healthcare, CPP, the Bill of Rights, etc) have been the result of the Tories? I will give you a hint- the answer is : NONE!
  6. Jolly good, i say. Jolly good! Pip pip hooray and all that.
  7. It would be a cab ride around him to get to the QB.
  8. All he really needs to do is just stand there and that will block off half the field
  9. And if your middle finger is broken, does it change the way you drive?
  10. Didn't even have to duck.
  11. Is this a fishing story? Too lazy to hit link to find out.
  12. The biggest perceived advantages to growing your own QB is in fan identification with him and possible loyalty to the organization for doing the work to groom him.
  13. This has been the knock on O'Shea all along. A good coach knows when enough is enough for a given player, and if any one thing is going to screw things up in 2017, this is probably it.
  14. Nichols is the best hope we've had in a long time, but he is neither Doug Flutie nor irreplaceable. I just wish we'd had a chance to see at least Davis in action this year for a meaningful time.
  15. iHeart- when did you acquire that chain of radio stations and website empire?
  16. Especially the linebacker. How could he be a flop with a name like that?
  17. The only scout position I would consider Mack for would be as a standin for Tonto's horse.
  18. LeFevour is pretty raw but I do like his competitive attitude. Heck, for all we know, Dominique Davis might be as good, but I suspect he will not see the field much before he qualifies for CPP.
  19. You forgot to use the sarcasm font there.
  20. I would bet on it. Its the Glieberguys all over again reducing a once proud franchise to a running joke. Dennis Rodman will probably be announced as head of scouting.
  21. I still do not think we would lose that much with Glenn at the helm, and Durant may well be available. Thus, if Nichols is unrealistic about his value, let him test the market.
  22. And now you are bad-mouthing our techno-nerd bretheren and those who are struggling with weight problems. Tsk.
  23. Is this a slur against our aboriginal brothers and sisters?
  24. I am not convinced that Richards is a legit CFLer, but to be fair, he was injured for almost all of the past two seasons and got darned few reps or game action. I hope that he will survive next training camp intact and then succeed or fail on his own merits.
