  1. Sooo PO'd for so many reasons right now. Forcing myself to keep watching.
  2. From bad to even worse. Stoopid play by Collaros.
  3. If the Bombers do not close the gap by at least 7 pints by the half, they will lose and lose badly.
  4. CRAP!! This is very reminiscent of the loss to the Lions. No defence al all
  5. Biggie needs to stop that sort of thing.
  6. Particularly when it leads to a change in possession
  7. And he wasn't alone,either,
  8. Well, THAT was pure, unadulterated crap.
  9. Apparently there have been intermittent network problems for several hours earlier today.
  10. (Insert Hermann Goerring quote here)
  11. The difference is that our beliefs are supposed to givern our conduct and interactions with others. When we use our beliefs to compel others to follow our rules, that is where the line is drawn. If you choose to practice in your life that abortion is wrong, that is fine. If you use that excuse (almost exclusively rooted in dogma) to force others to carry unviable foetuses to term, or by doing so, cause physical or psychological harm to the pregnant woman, you have crossed that line and are creating harm. If you teach that gender identity is defined by your beliefs and anyone who disagrees is deviant should be ostracised or otherwise punished, you re casuing harm. And the list goes on.
  12. Its the American way to resolve a grievance, be it real or imagined.
  13. Trump hinting that if things go to Hell for him in the US, he has the option to flee the country.
  14. Oh, dear. Does that mean that the Ilks are likely to lose to the Bombers now?
  15. Trump-appointed judge orders Southwest lawyers to get 'religious-liberty training' by 'hate group': report United States District Court Judge Brantley Starr of the Northern District of Texas on Monday ordered three Southwest Airlines attorneys to attend "religious-liberty training" through the Alliance Defending Freedom, which is designated as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center. Starr was nominated by former President Donald Trump in 2019 and confirmed to the federal bench in a 51-39 party-line vote by the then-Republican-controlled Senate. Star wrote that "the airline twisted his words and disregarded his order in the case of a flight attendant who claimed that she was fired for expressing her opposition to abortion," reports David Koenig of the Associated Press. "Starr found Southwest in contempt for the way it explained the case to flight attendants last year after losing a jury verdict. In a blistering 29-page order, the judge said the airline acted as if its own policy limiting what employees can say is more important than a federal law protecting religious speech." Koenig notes that "for Southwest, the sanctions add insult to injury. They stem from a roughly $800,000 judgment against the airline and the flight attendant's union. Although that was less than the jury's $5.1 million award, Charlene Carter also got her job back." Carter had "sued Southwest for firing her in 2017 after she sent confrontational anti-abortion messages to her union’s former president. Carter argued she had been discriminated against based on her religious beliefs," writes The New Republic's Tori Otten. https://www.alternet.org/airline-lawyers-religious-liberty-training/ In his latest decision, Otten continues, "Starr specifically mandated the lawyers take the training as part of court-ordered sanctions for religious discrimination. He described ADF as one of several 'esteemed non-profit organizations that are dedicated to preserving free speech and religious freedom.'" Starr "also ordered Southwest to issue a statement telling its employees that the airline 'may not' engage in religious discrimination against them. Instead, Southwest said that it 'does not' do so, prompting Carter to demand additional sanctions against the company," Otten explains.
  16. Welcome aboard- you are in good company here.
  17. Crum was not great, but he was hampered by a mediocre o-line, an offensive coordinator with no imagination and a terrible set of receivers. I don't think any one of them would start for the Bombers.
  18. Trump's legal team's best defence that they could come up with is that, yes he was working to overthrow the election, but it was "aspirational rather than actual', sooo...no harm, no foul, right?
  19. Trump's arrogance and bloated ego will compel him to spend every cent he can get his hands om ro appea;l and appeal and appeal. I would not put it past him to flee the USA if it becomes certain that he will go to jail.
  20. Somewhat impressed by Powell.
  21. We ain't seen nuthin' yet.
