Some of the wildest stats in NFL history:
- The Bears have never had a 4,000+ yard passer in a season (106 seasons)
- All 4 of the Baltimore/Indianapolis Colts Superbowls were played in Miami
- Larry Fitzgerald in 17 seasons finished with more tackles (42) than drops (29)
- During the entire 2014 NFL regular season, the Kansas City Chiefs did not throw a single receiving touchdown to a wide receiver
- The Panthers have never recorded back to back winning seasons in their franchise history, yet they once won the NFC South division 3 years in a row (31 seasons)
- The Buccaneers lost 26 consecutive games from 1976-1977. This was their first 26 games as a franchise. 0-14 in year 1, then they went 2-12 in year 2.
- Every NFC team has played in the NFC Championship game since 2010, except the Cowboys, who haven’t since 1995
- Ryan Fitzpatrick led the 2019 Dolphins in Rushing Yards (243) and TD’s (4).. Dude was 37 years old at the time..
- Tom Brady never played a game in his entire career where he was mathematically eliminated from the playoffs going into it.
- For his entire career, Tom Brady has a better chance of getting to the Super Bowl (47.6%) than Steph Curry has of making a 3 pointer (42.2%).
- The Jets joined the NFL in 1970. They beat the eagles for the first time in 2023.
- The Lions went 70 straight games without having a 100 yard rusher. This was during the Stafford era.. it started after Reggie Bush rushed for 117 yards on Thanksgiving in 2013. The drought lasted almost 5 seasons before Kerryon Johnson rushed for 101 yards in 2018..
- Mike Vrabel had 12 career receptions during his career, and every single one was a touchdown..
Canada has officially confirmed it.
The dramatic claim that the U.S. was “attacking Quebec culture and language” and threatening Canadian sovereignty boiled down to a request to review packaging language requirements — bilingual labels, French on product packaging, manuals, and appliances.
We are now in a full-blown trade confrontation with live 50% tariffs, tens of thousands of jobs at risk, higher costs for Canadian families (including infant formula), and retaliatory measures that will raise prices further… over soup-can labels and instruction manuals.
This is the level of spin that has defined the last eleven years. Escalate the language to “war,” “attack,” and “sovereignty” so no one can question the decision without looking unpatriotic. Then, when the details emerge, it turns out the red line was packaging rules that have been a known trade irritant for years.
Ordinary Canadians are the ones who will absorb the hits — lost jobs, higher prices, weaker investment — while the government and its media defenders keep selling the highest-stakes narrative possible.
A country cannot keep operating this way. Framing regulatory packaging disputes as existential cultural warfare while the real economic damage lands on workers and families is not leadership. It is deflection at national scale.
Canada deserves better than this.
No more excuses. No more spin
Hey @grok, since Mark Carney became Prime Minister, how many new trade deals has Canada actually signed? I mean completed and signed trade deals only, not security deals, economic partnerships, frameworks, MOUs, negotiations or updates to existing agreements. List the countries and signing dates. Short answer.
‼️Here is a complete list of LARGER Canadian companies that got crushed by 50% tariffs overnight, along with the number of jobs, and total exports to the US:
-Plastics & packaging — Winpak / Cascades / CCL Industries
(~2,800–26,000 jobs combined; ~$1–3B+ combined US sales/exports)
• Wood products — West Fraser Timber / Canfor / Interfor
(~9,500–15,000+ jobs; West Fraser alone ~$3.4B US revenue)
• Furniture & lighting — Dorel Industries / Teknion / Global Furniture (~3,000–6,000 jobs; Dorel ~$500–800M US sales)
• Select machinery & electronics — Celestica / Linamar / Magna (select divisions)
(tens of thousands of jobs across groups; multi-billion US exposure)
• Textiles & apparel — Gildan Activewear / Canada Goose (Gildan ~75,000 global jobs, major US market; Canada Goose ~$1B+ revenue, strong US sales)
• Cement & other — Lafarge Canada (Holcim) / St Marys Cement
(~1,500–6,000+ jobs; hundreds of millions in US-bound shipments)
