Way too many McClellan’s in the GOP. Brilliance with logistics, understanding of discipline and morale. He earned his rise.

Six of seven days of victory, and a general retreat because he didn’t fight and never had faith in the army he built and then given a second chance, didn’t learn the lesson of the first.

Things you will see on the CBC

That stuttering gob-smacked anchor has the look of someone whose bubble was just popped.

CFL Picks, Week 8

Thursday, 17:00 CST: Ottawa at Toronto. Franklin is out, McLeod Bethel-Thompson is in. New QB, new system, same old Argos. RedBlacks by 10.

Thursday, 20:00 CST: Riders at Eskimos. Collaros is back. Carter is playing on the offense. Close game but no one beats Reilly for forth quarter come backs. Edmonton by 3.

Friday, 17:30 CST: Hamilton at Montreal. Story line game of the week. Hamilton trades Manziel to Montreal and now he starts against Hamilton. Montreal has made a few good moves in the last couple of weeks so we’ll see how it goes. Hamilton though is solid across the board. Hamilton takes it by 5.

Saturday, 19:00 CST: BC at Calgary. As per normal, pick Calgary by 15 until they lose or it’s late October.

CFL Picks Week 7

Thursday, 17:30 CST: Edmonton at Montreal. No, Manziel won’t start against Edmonton. The Als D did pretty good last week, but the offense just wasn’t clicking. I don’t expect that to change, but I do expect a closer game than many may think. Edmonton by 7.

Friday, 18:30 CST: Toronto at Winnipeg. Toronto really underplayed last week against Winnipeg. Neither the D nor O could stop or do anything. Franklin had better start picking it up or he’ll be on the short-list as the next perennial backup QB. Too much has been invested in him and he’s had a lot of time to grow into the job. Winnipeg by 5.

Saturday, 14:00 CST: Ottawa at Hamilton. Now then, the Manziel controversy has been settled. Thankfully. Massoli has to play better than he did against Saskatchewan…fortunately he’s playing a team that he could do that against. Ottawa is having a hard time gelling this year, one week they play like crap, then last week they eek out a win against BC with a solid 2nd half. Hamilton has to rise up if they’re going to beat Ottawa but, they are at home. Hamilton by 3.

Saturday, 19:00 CST: Calgary at Sask. I want to pick Saskatchewan…I really do. Calgary by 15.

Enjoy the games.

That’ll work.

Tesla goes begging.

The Silicon Valley electric-car company said it is asking its suppliers for cash back to help it become profitable, according to a memo reviewed by The Wall Street Journal that was sent to a supplier last week. Tesla requested the supplier return what it calls a meaningful amount of money of its payments since 2016, according to the memo.

The auto maker’s memo, sent by a global supply manager, described the request as essential to Tesla’s continued operation and characterized it as an investment in the car company to continue the long-term growth between both players.
