Why not? I don't recall Lawless ever being wrong or contradicted on CFL salaries in the past

I guess it's true, orange really is the new black

I realize NOTHING!!!!

Kerry Joseph...

That is just an awesome troll job on Rider fans. The whole article. Good stuff.

For some people, a "win" has nothing to do with the score. It's who has the youngest team that matters.

This isn't the first time they've done something like that. I honestly think the "Put something out there then remove it to make it seem like it was an accident" to fuel rumors is one of their strategies.

I don't know I was just responding to JBR, quit busting my balls bro

I think Edwards/Dunk throw a couple pieces of info at Hodge every now and then... I don't think they would let him publish something untrue.

I miss Michael Bishop.

How is it comparing apples-to-apples to compare a goalie with 1 game played to a goalie with 30+ games played and line up their "best games" against each other? That's total nonsense. It's also incorrect that Pavelec's sv % (.909) was worse than Hellebuyck's (.907). I don't disagree with your overall points but there's no reason to distort the facts to make those points.

I thought I saw that he is under contract to NJPW for another year. EDIT: Still no word on his future plans, but here’s a rumor killer on Kenny Omega. While there was never much chance he’d be in San Antonio seeing as his New Japan contract is in force through Jan. 31, Omega is scheduled for an appearance in Chile during Royal Rumble weekend, making it almost logistically impossible for him to be there.

Disagree. He has one of the strongest pure "characters" in the WWE. Almost everyone else is "just a wrestler". Very few guys can maintain a real character like Bray, or like Rusev as the Bulgarian Brute. His character is so strong that he doesn't need any titles to be relevant. Even when they put the tag titles on him, it was like it didn't even matter to him. That's why he's so great.

4M/year... So yes, a very good bargain. Plus Subban at 9M, two guys at 2.5 and 3.75 and the rest on entry-level deals.

The term is meaningless apart from its technical definition (if a player is not a rookie they are a vet) so I'm not sure what your goal is in determining who is a vet and who isn't.

Pavelec was exactly what he's always been. Let in a couple softies, make an unbelievable save, and end up letting in 2-4 goals. Pretty familiar story. On the other hand you have Helle/Hutch who will either be unbeatable or let in 4 in 8 shots (something we've seen more this year than in 5 years of Pavelec). Do you want the rollercoaster ride or the consistently mediocre? I'm not sure either option is so great.

Well tell us the rest of the story then

I'm not a Toby-hater as much as most people but he is quite overpaid no matter which way you spin it. But I am surprised the Jets D salary is the HIGHEST....

I guess it depends on the job. I've never worked at a company of that size, but then, I'm a developer not a sysadmin scrub. Big pay days are not hard to come by in Winnipeg if you work at a company that is small enough to not have corporate-defined pay structures, but big enough that they don't pay bottom-of-the-barrel wages. But you aren't going to find those jobs on a job board, gotta be well-connected to find them.

Yup, same old story. "Bring up the kids!" "We're the youngest team in the league already..." "Must be the coach then! Fire the coach!"

Not so sure about that one... I doubt they're very good (how would you know if they are?), and most IT jobs in the private sector are the furthest thing from cutthroat and demanding.... source: I've spent my career in IT...

Fans always seem to be in favour of playing the young players, even if they're not the best. Kinda like the backup QB is always the most popular... just haven't seen them enough to know their flaws. Even on a team like the Jets who are close to the youngest in the league, the fans want to go younger. Look at this thread, it's people denying the truth that's right in front of them... the Jets play more young players than anyone.

Certainly there were some good late picks in that draft but the first couple rounds were pretty barren, unless you count guys who are currently in the NFL as good picks.

Interesting research... shows how tough it is to find a great Canadian receiver in this era. As for the 2013 draft... the Bombers may have acted pleased but most observers thought they totally blew it, even back then. Taking Mulumba was misguided at best, Robertson and Fitzgerald were blown picks, DiCroce had potential but was a known bandaid.

Yeah that definitely happened. Everyone thought that would be the game that our DLine would go off and then Montreal shut them down completely.
