  1. Doug Liman, who directed Paxton in the 2014 action film "Edge of Tomorrow," told the Daily News the actor talked to him weeks ago about a planned heart surgery. Paxton was worried, Liman recalled, but assured he'd be ready to work. He was expected to reprise his role as Master Sergeant Farell in a planned "Edge of Tomorrow" sequel.

    After watching Jack Reacher 2 I really dont want to see Tom Cruise again in a movie and I'm a TC fan.

  2. The other thing they have to change is the events during an Olympic year. Move every thing after the Olympics and add the Olympic team as an exemption otherwise one of the best teams in the country is not even participating in the Canadian/Worlds so whats the point.

  3. Curling fans coming out of the closet.

    First off Ontario has 2 teams?!? Northern Ontario is not a province or territory!

    Next year i believe the Brier will have some spots reserved for the Grand Slam(?) leaders so maybe the Scotties should do same.

    When will Homan smile BTW?

    The shirt in question bore the image of a baseball bat and the message “Eeny Meeny Miny Moe” — a reference to a scene from the AMC zombie drama in which Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) is deciding who in the protagonist group to kill.

    In the scene, Negan continues the phrase with, “Catch a tiger by his toe” — though, historically in the U.K. the rhyme has employed the N-word rather than the word “tiger.”

     

    The historical use caused shopper Ian Lucraft to complain after spotting the shirt at a branch of the U.K.’s Primark retail chain.

    “We were shocked when we came face to face with a new t-shirt with a racially explicit graphic and text,” Lucraft told the Warwick Courier. “It was fantastically offensive and I can only assume that no one in the process of ordering it knew what they were doing or were aware of its subliminal messages.”

    Someone wants their 15 minutes of fame. 

    i guess the counter-argument could be made that the Confederate flag means something different now but still has a reference to slave culture.

    Ah right.  So is that next summer he's UFA if the Jets dont sign him? 

    Poolman has yet to sign a contract and could become a free agent within 30 days of graduating in the spring, allowing every NHL team to potentially bid for his services - Mike McIntyre/WFP

    Not an upcoming movie, but one I watched again last night as it was on TV - Flight.  What a great film.

     

    Horrible ending I thought. The whole 'we got to get him doped up' just took a decent movie off the edge.

    Perhaps but I thought it was also about him playing with his brother this year down there?  Maybe 1 season with your bro is enough and he'll be ready to chase that NHL dream.

    I think you mean Poolman not Glover. Poolman's brother was in his first year of NCAA with him at UND.
