Rich

He was banned.

He was also a big wrestling fan, and my theory is he really looked at himself as the equivalent of a wrestling heel.

It’s open now

Think it's more entertainment than hyping up the crowd. It is happening during a commercial break.

Whatever semantics you use, it is paying someone less for working at home. I guess it would depend on a lot of things. Like does everyone have the option to work at home and choose not to. Or do some roles require people to be in the office. But I would be much more in favour of subsidizing things like parking. As mentioned above, remote work also saves a company a bunch through office space and related costs. Interesting enough there were companies who pioneered remote work that had sliding pay scales based on what city you worked in. But that has gone more and more away as remote work has become more prevailant. If you pay someone less who is a high performer for any reason, you tend to lose that person over time.

Why do you think people who work from home should get paid less? I work for a company that is 100% remote and has been since it started, even before Covid. Gives them access to hire from a bigger talent pool, as we have employees from all around the world, in 40 different countries. It’s about company culture and being deliberate in who you hire. They even decided to do things like give everyone 6 weeks holidays to match what the Europeans in the company typically get. Hire right and treat your employees well, and good things tend to happen.

Lets move discussion to GDT

There was a Blue in BC account created December 2019. https://www.morningbigblue.com/community/profile/3193-blue-in-bc/content/ I could merge the accounts, if you would possibly remember the email address you used on the other account just to validate (can PM it to me). If not, it doesn't look like that other account has been active since Jan 2020. I could rename it so this one could pick the name.

Should be thankful that there are enough Bomber fans around to be able to support two sites. Not every CFL city has that support. People having options of what they prefer is never a bad thing.

This is pretty funny from Nashville and the draft https://twitter.com/PenaltyBoxRadio/status/1674107713159036939?s=20

You can only sign a player for a max 7 years unless he was on your team on the trade deadline of the previous year. Then you can sign for 8. Kings wanted him locked up for 8 as part of the deal which is why it was dependant on the sign and trade.

His salary in year 1 is $9M with $8M of that coming in the form of a signing bonus. It is possible the Jets paid that $8M depending on the date the signing bonus is due, but I'd hope all of that is on the Kings. Can't see them retaining any salary beyond that.

TSN Retweeted Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger Indications are the Montreal Canadiens have tried to get back into the mix for Pierre-Luc Dubois, but haven’t been able to gain traction. Montreal has “future” assets, but Wpg needs NHL ready players. LA has that and it appears PLD prefers the LA option. Developing story.

Yeah, I hadn't updated the last game played yet. It is now up to date.

Wonder what happened with this new deal for CFL stats. Delays getting this new system up? https://www.cfl.ca/2023/05/18/cfl-and-genius-sports-unveil-cutting-edge-official-data-tech-system/

What's your winning percentage with that?
