I don't like Trump but one thing that annoyed me was that he seemed to have to debate against the moderator. Anderson Cooper wasn't so bad but Martha Raddatz was clearly very pro-Clinton and at times she was arguing with Trump rather than just steering the debate. I don't think it's right for the moderator to get involved that way.

Why so much confidence in Edmonton? They have too many holes, IMO. -
I believe it works either way... any "possible" turnover triggers a review.

No Mercy last night was overall pretty average but the IC Title match between Ziggler and the Miz was outstanding. Not surprising to me as I've consistently said that Ziggler and the Miz have excellent chemistry and have put on many great matches in the past, including in Winnipeg. The crowd really got behind Ziggler and exploded when he won the title. I haven't seen a crowd that excited for Ziggler in a couple years at least. This feud isn't over, I'm sure. I don't know where they go with the WWE World championship now. Dean doesn't really deserve another match and I'm not sure Cena does either. They might extend one of those feuds because I'm not sure who else you can put into the world title program with Styles right now. Maybe Randy Orton but it looks like he's still tied up with Bray Wyatt. Luke Harper came back and cost Orton the match. Becky Lynch is injured and missed the match with Alexa Bliss who fought Naomi instead and lost. I don't know how long Becky will be out but it looks like they aren't making her give up the title.

Draft picks are a 4th and a 7th in 2017. Riders get some decent assets for the future in exchange for Capiciotti who never really fit in there. There is some speculation that Fulton will retire after this season or return to Regina (he will be an FA). -
I can't say I'm that surprised about Copp being sent down. He had a good finish to last year and a good camp but if you send Lowry down, realistically you are going to lose him and with Copp he does not have to clear waivers so he remains with the organization. Copp would have had to be like 200% better than Lowry but it was close enough that you have to go with the smart move from an asset management perspective. I was hoping for more out of Dano. He was in tough but I can't say he even made the decision a tough one. We'll see what happens with the goalie situation. For all Pavelec's flaws, it's always nerve-wracking to put your faith in a new starting goalie. If Hellebuyck regresses badly, it would be disastrous. But I've still got high hopes. Guys that legitimately won spots are Connor and Tanev. Both could have been sent down but played well in pre-season and secured a spot. Defence is a trouble spot. I believe we have the worst depth I've seen since year one with Jets 2.0. Pardy is available, we should get him back in the fold. Seriously, he would be a great fit with the Moose and I believe would be a better call-up option than Strait and Melchiori.

Projected lines (by me): Ehlers - Scheifele - Wheeler Connor - Little - Stafford Laine - Perreault - Armia Tanev - Lowry - Burmistrov Thorburn - Matthias Morrissey - Byfuglien Enstrom - Myers Stuart - Postma Chiarot Hellebuyck Hutchinson

Lapo was certainly on his game today.

To me the issue here is that the CFL does not test for recreational drugs and the only reason BJ got busted is that they have wrongly classified this drug as performance enhancing. BJ could have been doing coke all night with no issue but then he popped a pill and because the CFL has it classified as a PED he gets busted. I think that is wrong and silly. I'm sure many don't agree but it is a mistake on the part of the CFL and CFLPA.

I tend to stick to things that come from the ground. Any time you start messing around with chemicals you're asking for trouble. And that includes **** like Xanax and Ritalin that get pumped into the population legally.

That's from Paul Friesen. What's the world coming to when urban dictionary of all places is being used as a legitimate source?

He's not just a doctor. He is an expert on football, baseball, broadcasting, filmmaking, fine art, modern education, architecture, and pretty much anything else you can Google or read on an obscure message board. Just ask him.

Almost as bad as Massachusetts where an old woman was raided for one pot plant in her garden http://www.winnipegsun.com/2016/10/07/national-guard-raids-grandmothers-garden-over-a-single-marijuana-plant

Yeah since when do they test for **** like that? What a joke.

Wow, 2 games for a first offence. Is this normal?

You clearly are not as intelligent as I am so I will no longer try to argue with you as my time is very valuable.

Never said they were the best. 20th seems more reasonable to me, as in they are roughly average. As for the article itself, the guy freely admits he doesn't even watch any other broadcasters. So much for impartiality! He basically just parrots what everyone else says. No one thinks for themselves anymore and you're making a great example of that, being unable to form an argument other than linking to obscure message boards and articles by nobodies.

Ah ****, the TO sun. Well when is the last time the TO sun has ever been complimentary of anyone, ever, at any time?

Rangers are digging themselves an impossibly deep hole here.

LOL ok so you quote a bunch of clueless internet message board users. I can go to multiple message boards and find people who think they would make a better GM/coach than people who do it professionally but it doesn't make it remotely true. People who spend most of their days browsing the internet seem to think that reddit/twitter/etc. represent the majority when in fact it is the minority... by a wide margin.

Thanks for posting. Love that guy, couldn't agree more with him.
