Enzo isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer.

The only league other than the old AFL that could have given the NFL a run for its money would have been the USFL. Some cities were drawing fairly well. But then Donald Trump decided he wanted the USFL to become a fall league & compete directly with the NFL which probably would have been suicide anyway. When the USFL was awarded $1 in damages by a federal judge in the USFL's anti trust trial the league folded & Trumps hate was on for the NFL. I'm sure some owners like Trump wanted a merger of some kind but didn't get it.

I remember the WLAF as it was called then. All teams were in the States. The attendance was... guess what?? Abysmal. (Some things never change). Moving to Europe extended the life of that league.

It wasn't a bad idea but running a developmental league is expensive. It was much better run than the AAF.

Bob Pickering Saskatchewan skip 1969 McDonald Brier who was famous for the big windup. When I was a junior player, I tried that once & almost killed myself coming out of the hack.

hard to believe a Vulcan would get upset over comments like that meant to insult. I thought the comment "half breed" was so 1960's as it's a term that was common back then but uncommon now. A throwback to TOS.

Hate the format of the Brier now. Two pools & a WC team. That's what I hate. Especially the WC team. No interest in watching anymore. I know you like the WC team but I feel if you can't get out of your province for the Brier then go back & keep curling in the pro tour. It's a very confusing format.

Story today that the NFLmay loan the AAF some qbs. I wonder what player safety & the NFLPA think of that? I doubt if they'd let this go through. The league is absolutely incapable of standing on its own.

Wait. Let's meat up & talk about this. You look extra scrumptious today.

It'll finish the season & then probably evaluate for next year. They are facing competition with the XFL.

Bob Swift was Canadian. A broken leg in the 64 Grey Cup probably was a blessing in disguise as once he converted at first to guard & then found a home at center he became a mainstay on the Argos & then Blue Bombers OL. Swift mentored Bonk as he was his backup at center before he retired after the 77 season. Bonk just stepped in & the change was seamless. Bonk started his career in Hamilton in 1972 & was traded for Defensive Halfback Peter Ribbins prior to the start of the 1973 season. Bonk played linebacker for the Cats & Bombers before switching to Center with the Bombers replacing Swift. Bonk is my first choice but Swift was a helluva Center & would be my #2 choice. All I can say is Don Jonas, Dieter Brock & Tom Clements never had to worry about the man snapping the ball to them.

The telepathic aliens & Veena from the Menagerie, wow. That was a major surprise. I need some kind of explanation regarding Captain Pike who was horribly disfigured & in a wheelchair. He was supposed to be living on Talos 4 where he was under the illusion (from the aliens) that he & Veena were happy & healthy. Yet, we see Pike functioning & healthy as Captain of the Discovery. I thought Pike's injuries were still in the future & not already happened. So, is his good health an illusion?

Restricted free agency vs guaranteed contracts. Put that on the table & see how far it gets.

And Wernick testified twice yet Raybould isn't allowed to come back to answer what Gerald Butts said. Butts could talk about the cabinet shuffle but Raybould can't. There's no "justice" in the Justice Committee. It's just a scam.

I had no idea he was even with WWE still. He & Vince have had a hot & cold relationship over the years. I miss Jerry Lawler beside Michael Cole on Raw.

In 2013, The Riders as well as the City of Regina were accused of making the Grey Cup a local event & thumbing their nose at Grey Cup traditions & out of town fans. Seeing the prices for a ticket, I'm inclined to think the Stampeders are doing the same thing for this year's game. They're banking on STH being the majority of ticket buyers with their discounts while over pricing out of town fans who must play full price to make them stay away. The organizing committee is banking on (praying?) that the Stamps make it to the Grey Cup. If they do, the game will sell out. If they don't, it won't be sold out as Stamps fans dump their tickets. This is just my theory.

LOL. Campbell is living in a fantasy world. Their quarterbacking is going to be horrendous if Jennings doesn't pick up his game & rise to the occasion to play like a legit CFL starter. I don't think he can.

Grey Cup Committee announced ticket prices for this year's Grey Cup in Calgary. Sky high prices & a huge negative reaction by Stamps fans. This championship could be a disaster. https://calgaryherald.com/sports/football/cfl/its-an-exorbitant-amount-stamps-fans-question-ticket-prices-for-2019-grey-cup

OMFG that was a horrible episode. As bad as Spock's Brain.

The NFL & the NCAA are everything. Now that most, if not all, American tv networks aren't showing the American national anthem, it has muted the player protests & taken the political protests away from Donald Trump. So, I expect fan popularity to grow again.

Everybody has their favourite or non favourite episodes. That episode just wasn't one of mine.

TSN does show the stands as more people are sitting there.

TNG used a timelines only a couple of time. One, Picard being kidnapped by the Borg & was assimilated. The timeline was Picard needing a break to emotionally & physically recover. So, what does he do? He went back to France to be hounded by his older brother for leaving the family behind when he joined Starfleet. After that, his assimilation was only mentioned a few times. I never understood why the writers would have an episode going back to see his brother's family knowing he'd have to put up with his jerk brother bad behaviour. To me, a badly written & senseless episode. The other where Spock attempts the reconciliation of the Vulcans & Romulans.
