  1. My gym gave up. Found out late last night that they are closing permanently. They are older owners and couldn't hang on anymore. There's not much around my area. I'll have to drive for a bit, i dont know. I haven't felt this low in a while.
  2. That sucks. My joke was about the new antivaxxer claim about drinking urine. I gave a little lecture some pages back about how some top athletes claim it's consumption has health benefits. Urea is also used in face creams etc.
  3. There has been a bit of urine talk lately. Sorry, couldn't resist. Supply chain concerns are on the tip of peoples tongues around me. Due to the trucker vax issue I think.
  4. I hear you. The way things are going all that will be left will be big franchise businesses. We will all be shopping a Costco soon, they already have food....just need to add a pub with a dance floor.
  5. Petey or Horvat get injured and we are suddenly real thin down the middle. Miller types are very hard to find. I'm down with tweaks but I would move Brock well before JT, mostly because of the positions they play.
  6. I've made the joke that i will start working out a Sport Check in the mall. they have benches and weights.
  7. Kicking ass... you know how he does.
  8. I think they were bad too. I'm close with quite a few owner in Van. I worked 20+ years for a very big entertainment group (pub, clubs, restaurants, events, liq stores). I remember for a while every second day there was issues with outbreaks. I had just moved to the island but talked to the owners a lot. They are in tough, for a once very, very wealthy family.
  9. They should learn to box. Makes me think of the epic Once Were Warriors scene.
  10. I lost count of how many outbreaks were traced to restaurants.
  11. Are we already set to rebuild again? I'm not getting any younger. Lets go with this core and win the cup in 2 years
  12. I'm losing faith. Casinos alone....wait and Malls during the Xmas rush....wait, one more....schools, or we pretending kids cant spread it still?
  13. Probably but since health care regulations is provincial I have thought that they seem to do what works for each province. I dont need to rehash convos we've already had. Casinos, malls, sporting events, restaurants...I know that people say heavy breathing at the gyms but what about restricting amounts of people, private bookings etc... My gym is the cleanest place, wipe downs, masks, social distance....when I work out... first thing....hardly any people in the facility. Would like some business to business evaluations instead of these confusing blanket closures
  14. It's hard to find info on how many out breaks have been traced to gyms in BC. https://bc.ctvnews.ca/gym-closure-order-made-without-any-supporting-data-mla-says-in-letter-calling-for-reversal-1.5738816
  15. I'm still holding out hope that they announce some relaxing for the gym rules tomorrow.
  16. Are boxing gyms open? I used to box for a few years and I cant think of a more germ spreading environment. I am hearing that a bunch of BC gyms are set to defy any future orders. Apparently one sorta close to me. Nephew wants to switch to that one. I have said no...but if this drags on....oh I dont know....moral dilemma.
  17. I would hate to see Motte gone but if we are out of the playoff picture I'm not against it. If we trade Miller I hope we get a Miller in return... He's a rare gem.
  18. One of my nephews is 16 and has had a few ups and downs. He was getting into a bit of trouble etc... I started taking him to the gym with me at 6 in the morning. To his dads massive surprise, his son came with me everyday, 5 days a week for 8 weeks before the closures. A kid that usually stayed up late playing vids and eating candy. He even started to talk about joining football next year. He texted me earlier to see if I can pick him up tomorrow for the gym. It breaks my heart that I had to text him back and tell him this news. I know, I know. Most people support these restrictions but I'm allowed to be sad and concerned for my nephew. I just wish there could be other ways about it. My gym is very quiet at the best of times, its located off the track in a industrial area. I wish I could rent out the gym for private use so that my training partner, his son ( top Lacrosse player in BC, also really missing his training) and my nephew could use it. If we all paid $25 per hour, then the gym could make $100 an hour, close for 20 mins of cleaning and open to another private group. That way the gym doesn't go out of business ( they recently put it up for sale) and we could get back to a healthy lifestyle. Again, I know. I'm just frustrated.
  19. Still would never want him as a Nuck... he is that...Yuck no more rhymes now, I mean it..
  20. His toughness and talent makes him just so much more hateable I mean that. i hate the dirty creep. but man, he can hockey.
