I don't know if I should be offended or not....

Shopping trip to the beer store? **** yes!

Last Best is the Banff/Jasper Brew Co, and they just opened up a shop in YYC, I believe. They do have some decent stuff... If you're ever out in Banff, go to the Banff Brew Co brew-pub and try their sampler... Or just order the cream ale, it's ******* amazing.

So, basically you're saying anyone under 35 are stupid. Can we amend that to anyone under 33? Asking for a friend.....

Can be said about any defensive back in the league. There isn't one DB in the league who never gets beat, especially with the wonky PI rules. DB is very much a position where you win some and you lose some and Washington is a damned good player.

I'm just curious & I'm not trying to criticize or pick a fight. I genuinely want to know why you're an Oilers fan? Again, just asking. Oh why is anyone a fan of any particular team? After the Jets left I sort of gave up on the NHL for a while, one of the things that brought my attention back was truthfully a lot of those scrappy Oilers teams that played against the Stars in the playoffs. Plus how could anyone not like Ryan Smyth as a player? Not the highest skill but put up a lot of points just by working his ass off and doing the thankless jobs.

Probably hire someone cheaper to do it

Moore, Denmark and Matthews on the starting core, with Dough Alert and Gudino.....Adams as depth or in some situations where you run 4 IMP REC......unless they can somehow recruit a young quality receiver outta the states.... Yeah Adams as a DI I got no problems with but if we're adding a Chris Matthews then the obvious answer is that he simply takes Adams spot because they play the same spot only Matthews does it much much better.

action movies especially have evolved because of all sorts of new ways to film action scenes, not the least of which is CGI. Gotta appreciate old movies for what is there.

I used to really like Off the Record, watched it quite regularly but a few years ago it just became unbearable and I find myself not really being sad to see it go. Interesting that Sheri Forde gets the axe too, must be awkward with Duane Forde still on staff...

You know what, I don't think it's are serious as all that. Yeah they didn't win a championship, but Milt Stegall (and the rest of the great players around when he was) made a lot of football fans in Winnipeg. Those are people in my age bracket (or just a bit below) who became fans watching one of the best players ever and they're in that age now where they are having families which likely passes the tradition of being a fan down. Sure there's probably not a lot of under 25s but really in the grand scheme of things that's not too big a deal. The thing gets turned around they'll jump on the band wagon too. I hope Wade Miller and the Bomber directors aren't subscribing to this theory, but are instead busting their butts everyday to make this franchise as respectable on the field once again as it is in the hearts of us older fans who actually remember a time we could be proud of the on field product ... The fans of the Montreal Canadians demand that whoever is managing that team puts a competitive team on the ice each and every year. They won't accept less and if you think our team has fans that complain too much, well, you have to admire their competitive spirit. Their fans reach far and wide and the team rarely if ever misses the playoffs. The Montreal Canadiens were a lottery team just a few seasons ago... They are fortunate that they were able to draft Carey Price (who was a 5th overall pick let us not forget) who turned into one of the best goaltenders in the world. They haven't been a juggernaut team the whole way through, they've been up and down like most teams have. The fans can ***** and moan all they like it really doesn't accomplish much. Toronto Maple Leaf fans are demanding too and their media is ruthless, hasn't helped them become a decent team at all. The teams that do well are the teams that don't make reactionary moves at the first sign of trouble.

But he was great as Dieter Von Cunth....

Only if he is a leader that the players will look up to and follow, and is a communicator and teacher. I'm sure Buck, Glenn, Allen, Flutie etc. have the knowledge to be an OC, but if you can't communicate what you want done, and be able to change it mid game if necessary you won't be successful. So by all of this, Khari should be the greatest OC of all time......? *waits for Dave response* Just one of the many reasons I'd want Khari as OC. But there is some merit to having qbs as offensive coordinators. Lots of ex qbs running offenses or ex qbs as head coaches who have done well in the CFL. Austin, Hufnagel, Dickenson, Milanovich, Maas just right off the top of my head, I am sure the list is much more extensive than that.

Always enjoyed gbills contributions and hope he comes back soon. This forum should be working to attract posters, not drive them away. His problem was that for all his stalking of people on twitter to try and get a scoop he really didn't know much about football. Yeah he went to training camp but I don't think he really knew what the hell he was watching cause his reports often were contradictory to what everyone else saw. Just another attention ***** who wasn't smart enough to really get the respect and attention he so desperately wanted.

You know what, I don't think it's are serious as all that.

I don't believe Doug Berry ever played anything and he turned out to be a good positional coach... Here's the thing, playing a position certainly helps but it is not an absolute requirement for understanding fundamentals and how to coach. Coaching is really just teaching and some people can teach even if they aren't themselves experts in the field.

....? Was this misplaced or jus an odd rant as I dont see anyone pouring distain over peoples choices.. If anything, I see people adding counterpoints to why they are good or bad in their opinion.. You know, as in having a discussion? Some people just don't understand why others can't ***** and complain about everything all the time.

I am a huge Khari fanboy. To me the pluses are: former CFL QB, success working with Durant/Willy/Jennings/Lulay, worked with a great OC is Cortez. The negatives are: only an average offense in Hamilton as OC, worked as an OC under Marcel. That time in Hamilton was a long time ago, he was always a smart guy, surely he's learned since then. Not to mention not having Glenn as your qb opens up options. I just think people soured on him too much because of that first go around. Was he not pegged to be the OC in BC until Cortez came available and they bumped him down to get a very proven guy?

The biggest drawback for Manitoba is that they're far away from BC and Ontario and Quebec and don't have a huge amount of their own breweries at this point. Makes the logistics getting a big variety more difficult. It is interesting, I was chatting with the guy who runs the closest liquor store to me one time when I was buying something new and I mentioned how I was stoked to see a new offering from this company, he says "Yeah but now I gotta find more room on the shelves for it" Guess there's just too many options out there they are forced to stock the best sellers which unfortunately for me means my preferences get the short end of the stick. Lots of IPAs though and lots of fruity beers. Also why WildRose stopped bottling the SOB yet you can't go anywhere with the god damned raspberry beer being front and centre.

I still say Khari is the guy! He won't fail us!

I've gotten into some stouts, but I just can't enjoy them most of the time. That Phillips sampler has good variety, but I keep just falling back to the IPAs anyways. I'm biased. Dave will try and sway you toward the ESBs....I'm a big fan of Red's. There's a new one from Village Brewery called "The Huntsman" that I really enjoy. Earthy....ton of flavour. I'm a fan.... No thank you to bitter beer. I'm a wheat beer guy, especially in summer. It's just a name! It's not bitter! I love a bitter. Has some nice hoppy flavour to it without being too over whelming. The biggest shame in the craft beer scene right now is that it seems like stores stock only the IPAs or the stouts because that's what is the biggest sellers as some people think you need the big intense flavours for it to be a craft beer.

Dat would be the record completion percentage in 2005, Bob! That and his stupid ******* facial hair choices and his giant dumbo ears... he just looks like someone you'd want to punch right in the face.

Look the bottom line is that the award is for the most outstanding and the season Westerman had was outstanding for any player national or international. What Sinopoli did was a good season but not really outstanding. If Westerman doesn't win what should be a slam dunk award it's a ******* joke.

3 beers with supper isn't all that trying, going through a case in a weekend won't even catch a buzz. Sounds like there's some rank amateurs in this thread. Also Mike, get off the IPA wagon, there's stuff out there that isn't pure hops.

fine I'll be the one to say it... **** Jason Maas. I don't care what he did in Ottawa something about that guy just bugs me.
