Is Stanley going to be on the World Junior team? If not I'd want to know why. http://www.hockeycanada.ca/en-ca/Team-Canada/Men/Junior/2016-17/Selection-Camp/Stats/team-rosters?teamid=128 Don't see him listed.

http://www.dailywire.com/news/10709/van-jones-terrified-muslims-fear-internment-camps-robert-kraychik I fail to see any hypocrisy here. You post a video with Van Jones in it, I point out his foolish statement about internment camps, and now I'm a hypocrite for pointing out Van Jones' horrible comment? Puhlease... I did watch most of the interview, and while it did make me ill in terms of Noah fawning all over him, and it was kind of silly to say that Jeffrey Lord and others on the CNN panel make outrageous statements (when Van Jones is one of the biggest perpetrators) he did make some good points about why Trump won. Because people were tired of not being listened to, or just being dismissed with insults. Which is the same thing Jonathon Pie and the person who plays him have said.

are you using the word "poopy" too randomly?
-
I can't get the quote box to work. I would say Trudeau was evil light. And just as "poopy" as Harper, in fact, much worse than Harper. Also - you are also entitled to your opinion, but not your own facts either. That's a two-way street.

Van Jones - this is the guy spreading fear and hatred the night after the election saying that Muslims were going to be put into internment camps, which was not only wrong but horrible to say. This is why the Daily Show is in the ratings toilet. Jon Stewart was definitely left of the spectrum, but he was also funny. Trevor Noah just isn't funny.

I think next year he ends up on a line with Burmi playing for the Allah Akbars in the KHL... -

Anyone else not surprised that Yakupov is sucking just as hard in St. Louis as he did in Edmonton? I was told all the time by Oiler fans that he just needed a change of scenery and he'd be the next Tyler Seguin. More like the next Alexandre Daigle. -
Game 28 : Perogies @ Deep Dish Pizza
kelownabomberfan replied to FrostyWinnipeg's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
That kind of game would have been a heart-breaker to lose. Chicago was totally out-played and rode a hot goalie to somehow steal a win. Also helped to be given a 4 minute power play at the end of the game too. I have seen the Blackhawks do this over and over again, sleep all game and then turn it up at the end to steal a win they didn't deserve. Last night the Jets were able to stand up to the task. Let's hope they can keep the momentum going. -
Game 28 : Perogies @ Deep Dish Pizza

Someone has to teach Ehlers how to score on breakaways. Buff and Lowry could use some coaching too. Just shooting at the goalie's glove hand and mid-section isn't cutting it. -

Game 27 : My Winnipeg @ Meet Me in St. Louis

I like Little and Laine playing together, they seem to forming some good chemistry. If Little can stay healthy that's a solid second line. I do like Ehlers and Schief playing together too. -
I'm not Iso. Ok, so it wasn't a cross-over. Also, the N word wasn't the only offensive part of that clip. I am not sure how clear I can make that. As it may have been considered a satire, it still reflected a lot of the norms at that time. And it would never be allowed on TV now, for good reason, even if it is seen as a satire. How far we have come as a society! I wonder if I grasp the satire of this scene from Blazing Saddles? Especially since Richard Pryor was one of the writers... Would a movie like this be made now? Never. And that's just a reflection of how far we have come.

ok - it was an All in the Family episode with a Jeffersons cross-over. And if you think the N word not being bleeped is the only racist thing in that clip then you didn't watch it very closely. The N word being used by George Jefferson unbleeped wasn't even close to the main issue in that entire clip. There was so much wrong in that video, and yet 42 years ago, that was the "norm". As society evolves, norms change. Some move faster in that change than others, but there are still valid view-points that shouldn't just be dismissed with an insult. That was the point I was trying to make.
-
Speaking of what is considered "racist" these days, look at how far we've come as a society. Check out this clip from a Jeffersons TV show in 1974, which bizarrely had a cross-over with Archie Bunker. This actually was on TV, on a major network. Imagine if they played this on TV now?

I have to agree with this. Now it just makes them look guilty.

I remember when Harper also eulogized Chavez. That was beautiful. http://news.nationalpost.com/full-comment/michael-den-tandt-earth-to-trudeau

Time to send Kyle Connor down to the Moose?
