New rules / commissioner's statements

He strikes me as a cold, impersonable corporate nerd who has zero credibility in the football world. Zero. He just gives off a weird vibe and I just don't trust or like the guy from the minute I saw him.

I agree. Hope he gets a hearty boo at the game tomorrow.

To care about "vibes" is just silly. I'm all about actions and policy. That's what matters.

Ok, forget about the vibes then, he just strikes me as fake and creepy. Good enough for you oh holier than thou one??

Sorry. I don't cotton to any of them religions. Nor am I into virtue signalling. When it comes to most such matters, I'm all business.

Old men have a lifetime's worth of perspective. It's called common sense borne of experience. Try it sometime.

 

Ummm...How would one "try" to have a lifetime's worth of perspectives?

An example of common sense, to me, would be logging onto Facebook to get depth charts listed there instead of spending three years coming on here to complain about it... But who knows, that's just my perspective borne of experience.

I'll skip the woke winky emoji.

Live and learn. That comes naturally to most.

I'd say you need to work on your perspective if you equate a couple of complaints over three years to three years worth of complaining. That's just the kind of common sense that comes with no experience at all.

This new commish is a wannabe. He has no cfl experience.  He seems like. A next door neighbor, who has watched a couple games and claims he is knowledgeable, of what fans want. lol!

Come on at least pretend to conduct some fact finding. A survey?  Nope.  Than the fact finding is bias even in anything the guy says. No sample size revealed.  Maybe he asked his other family over Easter supper.

Winnipeg looks like they were one if the best CFL productions.  Even if the schlepp on tsn'ssaryrday afternoons show was really at the U of W field house niypt somewhere on in the U of M  campus.  Who was the rookie host.  The next commercial break the kid noted it was the U of W.

Having the answer to your problems a click away but refusing to do it is stubborn and stupid. Not wise and smart.

Pretending you have answers simply because you've lived a long time is equally foolish.

There's young fools and old fools.

Being old simply means your old. You'd know that if you actually used your experience to council anyone or anything of substance.

And people who are old and wise, in my experience, never need to tell anyone they are. The ones who are simply old, do, though.

Not just a click away. First of all I'd need to join Facebook which is an entity I don't want to support for several reasons, e.g. Facebook has acted to kill discussion forums such as this one.

Excuse me but I wasn't the one who raised the subject of age! That was your buddy who raised the subject of age with the jibe about me being an old guy throwing rocks or something like that. (All that's now been deleted.)

Now you knew that but you still latched onto my reply while ignoring the initial provocative jibe. Would you perhaps like to explain that? Are you too young (or too old?) for objective assessments?

Like I say, I wasn't the one who raised the question of age.
