  1. Great. Enjoy your 45k/year job at the insurance corporation that your 4 years in university got you. The tradespeople who went to school for a year and now have 3 years of experience are making more than you, working side-jobs for cash and have no debt. I accept the value of a university degree for doctors, lawyers, and engineers. Everyone else is wasting their time and money.
  2. How much time does it take to train to the point where you become an actual police officer? Assuming you start right after high school, are you saying that a 20 year old could be a full police officer (not cadet)? Sooner, later? I definitely feel like the cops I know took several years before becoming an officer. How much does a cop make in their first year? Their fifth?
  3. Not sure how the degree comes into it? There are plenty of cops with university degrees and plenty of people in well-paying jobs who do not have degrees. The value of university degrees drops daily.
  4. I'm not sure... maybe? Two or three times and it's a coincidence... ten times and it's a pattern (Trotz's teams have now been bounced in rounds 1 or 2 ten times).
  5. How is this not the case already? Seems very logical and kinda common sense
  6. 5'8" 202 lbs.
  7. Wait is this law actually enforced? You can go around Portage Place at any time of day and see people drinking whiskey straight out of the bottle... not even trying to hide it.
  8. Never ending election season. How does the American government ever accomplish any actual governing?
  9. So we can never make it past the second round? Oh who am I kidding, I'll take regular season success and a couple rounds of the playoffs.
  10. Crazy to think that a team that has won 2 straight president's trophies will have to legitimately think about making changes. I like Barry Trotz but he's never been past the second round as a coach, maybe they start with him.
  11. This must be so tense for Caps fans. If this was the Jets I'd be freaking out.
  12. Yes. All the Caps need is one to tie it up. But I don't like their chances if it goes to overtime.
  13. Fleury is on another level tonight. Gonna take a miracle for the Caps to beat him
  14. Totally agree. Ever since we started cramming everything into two massive mega-threads, participation has been way down on the site.
  15. The senior fellows have spoken! The policy must change!
  16. Mason is still relatively well-regarded throughout the league. I'd be curious to see what kind of deal we could get him here on. It wouldn't be a bargain basement deal though... probably 3+ years at 3m/year.
  17. Acceptable TD:INT ratio in the CFL has changed a lot over the last 10-15 years. Now we're seeing guys with a 4:1 ratio in some cases. Even the middle-of-the-pack starters last year put up 2:1 ratios... Nichols, Durant, Collaros...
  18. Yeah I got it, you didn't have to edit it for emphasis. I'm just saying if we are just going to sit around with our thumbs up our butts and settle for the last goalie remaining on the market, we're going to be in no better position than we were this season.
  19. The great thing about mediocrity is that the price tag is always low. If we aren't willing to pay for a good goalie, we're not going to get one.
  20. Agreed! I don't see why everything has to be filtered into massive mega-threads. It discourages new users from reading and posting here. About the tackle.... This is a great signing. Seriously blue-chip young tackle prospect. Foketi and Hardrick should both be looking over their shoulder.
  21. That's what I'm thinking, because they had Roman working the injury on RAW didn't they? I didn't watch but that's what I read. Normally they don't work real injuries for obvious reasons. It's too bad, I'd really like to see Strowman vs Lesnar. One of the few matches that I'd actually get excited for with the current weak roster.
  22. Cinderella story in waiting
  23. Survey says: TUP is freaking out
