Read on CNN (fake news)* website that the Republicans rammed the AHC through Congress just to pass the bill. They felt it was better to pass a flawed bill that will negatively affect 44 million people than not pass anything at all. That's how much the Republicans care about the people they claim to represent. Better to not have egg on their faces than make sure people have health care coverage. Pretty shameful. Hopefully, in 2018 these same people they hurt will rise up & throw them out. *Yeah right

I have had 4 major reconstructive foot surgeries due to arthritis on both my feet since 2012. I also have arthritis in both knees & will need both my knees replaced. Some of it is due to injuries I received years ago (knees) but my feet were always fine until a decade ago when I began to suffer horrible pain & my feet actually began to deform & become crooked. Walking becamse painful. Every step excruciating. Arthritis like this runs in my family. My father had the same problems I've had with his feet yet my brother's feet are fine so it's the luck of the draw. In the US, because I have pre existing conditions I would not have coverage for any surgery relating to my feet & knees. I also had a bone infection after my last foot surgery in July 2015 & was off work for 18 months because of it. The surgeries & complications as well as ongoing treatment due to infection would have cost me hundreds of thousands of dollars in the US. I probably would have lost my left leg because of the infection. Or perhaps even died. Yet, for all the care I received, after I left the hospital as well as the infectious disease centre I paid no bills. I didn't have to sell my car, house or go into bankruptcy to be treated. The Americans can have their private co-pay health care system... Phooey.

The Republican Congress killed Obamacare. Not because it was the best thing for Americans but because it didn't serve private insurers well. American politicians don't care about the constituents they claim to serve. But they do care about who funds their campaigns. Or they'd have gone to a universal one payer health care system like ours decades ago. Now insurers can charge older Americans more & insure less people, especially those with pre existing conditions. A very dark day for a lot of Americans. We should be thankful for our Canadian health care system. Warts & all,

Have you ever done sports, Noeller? Or wanted to move into that area of broadcasting?

I'd have liked to see Gurley back as well. -

Lawless isn't dumb. He can see what's happening to sports media in this country thru the cuts by Rogers, Bell Media & Postmedia. He could have awakened next week with no job. Here he has security which he probably never had with TSN.

C'mon Fella.... Cesaro is probably one of the best pure wrestlers in the WWE & they're wasting his talents as well keeping him down. But Vince says let's keep pushing Roman. Eventually the fans will accept it. Not.

I've cut back posting immensely here. I have my sanity back. Yes, too much even of a good thing isn't healthy.

Seth had such a great opportunity a year ago & they blew it. He'll never get it back. Look at what they did to Reigns. Fans are chanting "Thank you Braun" & nothing changes. As far as The Miz goes, you're right that he's been a joke for years & now he's getting the big push. Even if The Miz is doing the best work of his career, I still don't care & never will. To me, they booked him as a mid carder. He'll never be anything else. At least the writers are getting it right with Sheamus & Cesaro. Their explanation (storyline) of why they turned on The Hardy Boys made sense & to be honest with you, they will do very well as heels.

Too much of something, even a good thing is a bad thing.

US historian believes that Trump will stage a fascist coup before 2020 in an attempt to remain President. http://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/politics/donald-trump-trying-to-stage-a-coup-and-overthrow-democracy-is-inevitable-says-top-us-historian/ar-BBABDWa?li=AAggFp5

Why not have a clean win then have the heels come out & attack Balor & Rollins? Nope, example 152,762 of the boring WWE formula of interfering in a match. It has been for decades & somehow Vince think fans like it.

His cholesterol level must be through the roof. An entire carton of eggs everyday is like a ticking time bomb.

What did you guys think of the ending on Raw with Joe & Wyatt interfering? I know it's to set up future feuds but still.... so much of the same .... every week.

Just watch. Bauming will get laid off by Bell Media. -
I hope you're right. If Maurice & Chevy get extensions they'll be here for awhile.
-
LOL! It's Chevy. Futures are his ticket to long term employment as he doesn't do much else as a GM. He has Chipman & the media (Lawless) convinced that the future is 5 years from now.
-
I may watch it, dunno. The last few episodes of Raw have been so bad... I just don't give a damn.

If I cost my company $116,500 I'd be fired & sued. Yet, that ain't happening. Things won't change. A leopard can't change his spots. Expect more of the same from Jones & lip service from Reynolds. -
Happy for those 3 guys as they get to pursue NFL options but man it sucks for us & the CFL.

What does Walter do now? Ankou, Gray & Senior sign with the NFL.

Anyone surprised Auclair hasn't been drafted yet??? Seventh round, 22 picks in already. -
Rich's point is that there are always players rated low who over perform & players who are rated high who under perform. Someone will step up as a player like Mark Scheifle has done...
-
One player of the board. Maybe he drops to the 5th round now.
