I also saw some talk about stupid leaves and the pita they are to take bag etc 🤮.

I have one piddly little maple our front of my house and one umbrella tree out back.

I have put our 12 bags of leaves because of fhs morons who don’t rake theirs. Even better is the idiot who takes them into a 3 or 4 foot high pile at the bottom of his tree and says they decompose. No moron, they don’t do anything other than blow onto my gd lawn.

If you are a “rake and burn” leaves type word of caution / learn from my (frank) up. My father in law is on an acre and change on the waterfront. We burned a poop tonne of leaves last Saturday all day. The fire looked out, I should have stirred it up and used water on the coals but we had shut off the outside hose and it looked well out.

Sun am / middle of the night Sat and crazy strong winds and rain start up. Strong enough to blow a warm or hot ember onto a tree root of a willow that was half rotted and probably had no more than a couple years left.

It has zero lleft now, I’ll have to cut it down next time we are there before ir just falls on its own.

It burned from the root to the tree and burned out all the rotted part. Crazy.

Boeser and Stone are breaking my balls in fantasy hockey because they are coded as out for so long without going on IR. I don't understand why Matthews was on IR expeditiously and other guys aren't.

My arch nemesis in these pools has the upper hand lately and I am considering just dropping these guys. Stone is made of limestone man.

Thanks for letting me share.

Trust me, I know! And if you knew how many posts I've put out there that I force myself to end because they are ridiculously long already that I want to add more into, you'd be embarrassed for me!

The Argos are 8-0 against the Bombers all-time in Grey Cups. Toronto is 9-0 against Winnipeg.

I feel like this makes sense. Plus, I think Knies is for real, so I don't see it as a big risk. The kid is blossoming right before our eyes. He's stepping up and out this season.

Give Knies 8x8 if he takes it.. The deal will be a steal by year 3

I dont rake leaves anymore. Although I dont have neighbors close enough to complain..if some do

let nature have the leaves for the winter.

Yep, I rake once, only because my neighbour is a sour old bat who complains, other than that, I mow a few times, free mulch, lawn is deadly sexy and I never fertilize

WTF.
He has a career 23 goals and 48 pts in 103 games and you want to pay him $1.5m less than M Tkafack who has several 100pt seasons and averages a just under a point per game? Even if you remove the florida discount and if Tkafack was making $10.5m per, knies isnt in the same stratosphere right now....or even within $2.5m of it.
Again, just because the cap is going up doesnt mean its ok to overpay players....you dont build cup winning teams that way. You need bargains on the team

Unfortunately, I have too many leaves, the amount of mulch left on the lawn would kill it. I have to rake a few times.

But when I do mow it and leave the mulch, it has saved many many bags and time

Holy frank, this site is dying.

Take a look at other threads - nobody is commenting anymore.

Buffalo thread used to be very busy. Same with Flyers.

Dead.

Fine by me as long as it doesn't cause work for others and nice and easier for you no doubt!

I live in town, and downwind so every lazy SOB who doesn't rake creates more work for me. Recycling day and garbage day are also annoying as I get a bunch of other people's crap on my lawn because they put out overflowing bins or open bags making no effort at all.

Sometimes people just suck.

While I'm yelling at clouds might as well tack on a 'your an idiot' to the people who think when they shovel their driveway just pushing the snow into the road is a good strategy so 'the plow will get it'.

Yes the magic plow for sure will get it and definitely won't just push it into someone else's driveway. I actually think pushing snow into the road is (where I live) something where the person can be fined under a bylaw but of course they never are.
