  1. You think more flags & interruptions would be great? Then more power to you. We agree to disagree.
  2. Look what happened the last time. You DON'T THINK coaches would use them? It would be terrible.
  3. Exactly. One per team equals 2 challenges per half. That's 4 per game. Pretty simple math.
  4. Even if he lights it up, Manziel will be the starter. The Als gave up a lot to get him just to hold a clipboard.
  5. There's 30 teams & only so many colours to go around. So, red, white & blue is fine with me. The design doesn't remind me of a throwback on the home jersey. If they did something better with the shoulders on both jerseys & gave the concepts red pants I'd be a bit more excited. Our home & away uniforms are kinda boring. The conceptual home uniform is more of the same.
  6. Why? You've obviously never lived anywhere else. You must think other cities are better run & politicians make better choices. You may be surprised to know that they don't.
  7. Sad that third rate soccer is more popular than Canadian football.
  8. One is just fine. More than enough. That would mean 4 per game & I don't think fans want that.Save it for when it is truly needed. We go entire games now without challenges & it is great.
  9. I'm no Calgary Flames fan & the chat in the summer about the team when nothing is going on makes me not tune in that is for sure. I can only stand so much.
  10. No more challenges than they are. Right or wrong I like it just the way it is. The game flows again with no more annoying bogus challenges.
  11. The CFL doesn't have Sportsnet or TSN trying to uncover every stone about the league along with rumours & innuendos (mostly Leafs stuff) with their knw it all experts panels. I mean here in Calgary we have Sportsnet The Fan 960 who will send their on air staff out to breathlessly cover live the Flames Alumni golf tournament all day. The CFL doesn't get that kind of coverage.
  12. The Tories elected a leader in Scheer who also wasn't ready. Intellectually, I'm sure he can hang with Trudeau but most Canadians don't seem impressed with him as Opposition Leader. He doesn't talk policy & is in solidarity with Quebec dairy farmers who support Supply Management as they got him elected leader. He's seems invisible unless that's the way the Lib press is treating him. As far as the NDP goes, they will never win with a Sikh leader. He'll get some votes but he'll never be PM.
  13. I know The Searchers very, very well. I've been a fan of John Wayne for a long time.
  14. Had Jeffrey Hunter taken the role of Captain Pike in the tv series he certainly wouldn't have been on the set of Cry Chicago & therefore may have lived for many, many years. Very sad what happened to him.
  15. Yes, In King Of Kings.
  16. I don't know if Nuff says is negative or positive. I hope it's positive. From 1950-69 he appeared in over 50 motion pictures including The Searchers, King of Kings & The Longest Day. For a time he was a leading man in Hollywood. From 1955-69 he also appeared in 20 television series as a guest star in such series as The F.B.I., Daniel Boone & the Green Hornet.
  17. Toronto TFC doesn't have a problem with it's location.
  18. The latest excuse is there was a strike & people couldn't bring their cars as the couldn't park.
  19. We certainly could see that & we didn't need to be there. Was he there?
  20. Jeffrey Hunter the actor who played Captain Pike in the original 1965 pilot The Cage & later when the pilot was reworked into the 2 part story called The Menagerie on ST: TOS was either committed to another project or had no interest in the part of Captain Pike for the Star Trek tv series. The role of Captain Kirk was given to William Shatner & the rest is history. He certainly made Kirk his own man. Hunter died suddenly in May of 1969 of a cerebral hemorrhage six months after suffering a severe head injury on the set of a movie in Spain called Cry Chicago in November of 1968. A stunt in a scene he was in went wrong. A rigged explosion while he was sitting in a vehicle was supposed to throw the shards of a car window out but instead threw it inside the vehicle striking him in the head. He also took the full force of the explosion as well suffering a severe concussion. He was 42 years old.
  21. Might cause a lot of violence & maybe a civil war.
  22. Banks has blossomed under June Jones so I don't think he goes anywhere. Teamed with Chris Williams & the Cats now have 2 speed burners for Massoli to throw to.
