  1. I think the Stamps. patch quilt O-line is going to be their downfall this game. Could get ugly.
  2. No. Still out with suspected concussion effects. I think he's done, would be surprised if he's back next year.
  3. Oswald was only one piece of the puzzle, one things for certain the "official story" doesn't add up.
  4. Good for the GC game imo, Ottawa will bring a lot more attention and fans to Wpg. than the Ti-Cats on their 3rd visit in 3 years.
  5. D backs screwed up, no way should that have been a reception never mind a TD.
  6. Tasker making his mark, good game right down to the wire.
  7. The Bombers wouldn't recognize necessity if it kicked them in the ass.
  8. Didn't know the Ti-Cats picked up Mitchell Gale. Just goes to show the smart get stronger and the dumb stick with Brohm.
  9. Impressed so far with the RB's new running back Powell, he must be another graduate from "Dime a Dozen U". McManus ought to pay that place a visit someday.
  10. Helmet to helmet hit on Masoli as well. No call.
  11. This is what a CFL game is supposed to look like, the refs. are secondary so far.
  12. Huge can of worms imo. Watched many documentaries and read a lot about this conspiracy but until something is officially announced by the U.S. government (which they will probably never do) everything is a loose end. Just like the details of 9/11, once the event has occurred the justification or reasoning behind it is somewhat inconsequential to the momentum of the event itself. The following paragraph from the article is the most relevant point made and it applies well to any American crisis. "Those resolute voices in American public life that continue to deny the existence of a conspiracy to kill President Kennedy argue that “someone would have talked.” This line of reasoning is often used by journalists who have made no effort themselves to closely inspect the growing body of evidence and have not undertaken any of their own investigative reporting. The argument betrays a touchingly naïve media bias—a belief that the American press establishment itself, that great slumbering watchdog, could be counted on to solve such a monumental crime, one that sprung from the very system of governance of which corporate media is an essential part. The official version of the Kennedy assassination—despite its myriad improbabilities, which have only grown more inconceivable with time—remains firmly embedded in the media consciousness, as unquestioned as the law of gravity."
  13. You should give Wisers Hopped a try, they've combined rye with a dark ale finish, really interesting combo. Also highly recommend Wisers Small Batch as a heavy hitter, just make sure you're not too far from your bed when you're done, it's dangerous stuff.
  14. How can you say that given that he's never played more than a handful of snaps at HB? The "IMO" suggests that its my opinion. I base that opinion off of what I think his skill set is. That's what this board is for correct? to form opinions and have discussions about our favorite sports team? I understand it's your opinion. I was asking how you came to form that opinion, seen as how he's never played the position before. didn't we recently have a conversation about this... Sorry, I missed the conversation... I'm thinking that the conversation he's referring to is not football related. It concerns "seen as how" versus "seeing as how". Irregardless of that, I could care less. Yeah... it was a joke... a few of us grammar geeks got all up in arms about people using "seen as how" a few months ago... Yeah, I'm still laughing about "Irregardless" although a lot of people use that term. I think it's actually "couldn't care less" also, although I'm certainly not a grammar geek. Hell, I can barely spell "grammar". My grammar was a sweet old bird but kind of cantankerous when she got into the gin.
  15. I love this video.
  16. If you believe that you haven't drank enough.
  17. Great stuff, I'm off to the store to snap some up as I spotted that new product last week but didn't flinch. Another very good whiskey that only seems to be available in MB. is Wiser Legacy, at around $40 it's a great buy. I usually pick up a case on my annual sojourn to MB.
  18. Careful now, don't be greedy. How would poor Jimmy Shaw get along without his $16,000/day for life pension? http://www.theglobeandmail.com/report-on-business/rob-magazine/jim-shaws-16000-a-day-pension/article567977/ This is one aspect of the Canadian business model that is repulsive. The CRTC steps in to protect an industry by preventing competition from outside sources but then allows the industry they're protecting to rape fellow Canadians.
  19. Good and finally. http://www.cbc.ca/news/business/cable-changes-timing-1.3326645 Canadian consumers should have basic package for $25 and choice for rest of channelsCable and satellite providers must provide skinny basic packages priced at $25 a month to every consumer by March 1, 2016, the CRTC says. The federal broadcast regulator laid out a timetable Thursday for changes to ways television signals are distributed across Canada. In addition to the basic $25 package, cable and satellite providers must move to a pick-and-pay system or offer small bundles of channels, also by the March 1 deadline. They must offer both by Dec. 1 of next year. The basic package must include channels on the CRTC's mandatory distribution list, including CBC, CTV and Global, a group of U.S. channels and aboriginal and minority English or French language channels. The U.S. channels usually would be CBS, NBC, ABC, FOX and non-commercial channel PBS. At least 10 of the channels must be local or regional, including the community channel and the proceedings of the provincial legislature, if available. TV viewers will then be able to supplement this with either individual channels or small bundled channel packages. The CRTC ruled last year that consumers should have access to more choice in their cable and satellite packages as well as cheaper basic packages. This is the first announcement of the deadlines for those changes. Some critics of the new regime say consumers may end up paying more for fewer choices, depending on how the cable companies bundle and price individual channels or packages of channels. And some specialty broadcasters worry they'll be left out in the cold if their signals aren't bundled with popular or must-have choices.
  20. From my take if he wanted to say horde he would have used "the" as in "the NDP horde" instead he used "a" as in "a NDP horde", which doesn't make sense in the context. Not the first time Lukiwski has said or done something stupid but being a Conservative. from Sask. his words and actions won't deter his supporters.
  21. That's exactly how I feel. Put a winning team on the field & the fans will come back. Fans are just itching for a winner. The question is when will the team do that? Wade must come into the office every morning, open up his spreadsheet shout f*ck! and slam his head onto his desk. Revenue lost in the last two years by not providing the fans at IGF with a semi-competitive team and a chance to win at home must be staggering. 2,000-5,000 fans less per game adds up quickly, especially when additional revenue from concessions is added in. In any other line of work accounting for this lost revenue would lead to the individuals directly responsible being fired but not with the Bombers, it's OKAY, they can try to do better again next year.
  22. My parents made up for it when I was 10. They bought me a road racing set as a Christmas gift. Oh My God... You have no idea how happy I was!!! I was the most poipular kid on my block as everyone wanted to come over & play. If I had the room to set it up permanently, I'd buy another set for myself. That was sure fun... Strombecker? They made some seriously good ****. We had about 400 ft. of track circling our basement until the Boyne River flooded and wiped it out. :-( Living on an island on the prairies is apparently a bad idea.
  23. Sure did, I would go after Arcenaux hard before considering Matthews as an impact receiver. Manny is the physical beast the Bombers lack in their receiving core, in fact I can't recall them ever having a receiver with both size and power. Surprised that Nik Lewis style receivers are not more common in the CFL as the D backs are generally smallish guys and receivers with some bulk can cause a lot of havoc once they get space to operate.
  24. Always enjoyed gbills contributions and hope he comes back soon. This forum should be working to attract posters, not drive them away.
