  1. Now, I know you've had it out for Parker since before he was drafted, but I think it's time to give him some credit. He is a top 5 Canadian receiver now and he might breach 1000 yards this season. Not sure "a touch above average" is really a fair description.
  2. Scary! Trade them Drew Willy for first round pick + Tyler Holmes
  3. Is Ryan Smith better than Denmark? That remains to be seen... hasn't shown that yet but Smith also hasn't played with Nichols. Is McDuffie better than Denmark? Tough to make that argument but McDuffie is coming off a huge game so you can't really pull him out.
  4. Six players from the 2015 roster signed NFL futures contracts? Who would that be? Troy Stoudermire Cam Marshall Shaq Richardson Hmm I'm drawing a ______ on the rest.
  5. My first favourite team is the Bombers. Second favourite is the REDBLACKS. Third favourite is the Stamps. Fourth favourite is the Lions. Fifth favourite is the Alouettes. Sixth favourite is the Argos. Seventh favourite is the Esks. I don't like the Ticats or the Riders.
  6. Well I respect your opinion but I disagree fully!
  7. I like having the East and West divisions, personally. Makes for better rivalries and more intrigue throughout the season. The funniest thing about having 2 divisions in a nine team league is this: If you're in the West, you play 10 games against the West and 8 games against the East. If you're in the East.... you play 10 games against the West and 8 games against the East. What-the-what?! #funWithNumbers
  8. You could also point to a year like 2008. Edmonton was 10-8 and crossed over. Without that rule, Edmonton would have missed and the 4-14 Argos would have made the playoffs
  9. Demski will be better once he has some decent coaching... he ain't getting that now
  10. Does a 6-12 team making it over a 9-9 team feel right?
  11. I thought this was going to be the Noeller vs Iso duel
  12. Right, and that's a pretty limited subset of today's music. I could name a handful of great metal guitarists, like Paul Waggoner, but nobody is going to know who the hell they are.
  13. See, you're never going to get that kind of recognition of a single guitar player or something like that anymore. Pre-2000, sure, everyone was familiar with certain bands. But now, the selection is so varied that there are very few bands that "everyone" knows, and even fewer individuals. I can point to a guy like John Frusciante (formerly of Red Hot Chili Peppers) as a great guitarist, but how many people specifically know who he is? It's a different world now. There are no more Eric Claptons because you will never get people to agree on such a wide scale... because again, the selection is just too huge.
  14. Not Johnson's first bad game of the season. He was able to bounce back after a rough start so I'm hoping he can come back strong from that one. I haven't heard anything about Randle being ready yet and I'll still take B Johnson over Posey.
  15. Team NA more skilled and talented than Canada? Ummmm NOPE.
  16. Ya, Scheifele is getting 6.125M and Huberdeau 5.9M
  17. I don't see how they could possibly start Pavelec for any more than 20 games, barring injury. Hellebuyck will start.
  18. Classic Regina, always trying to be Winnipeg
  19. Decent choice IMO. Counting Stars was a massive hit.
  20. Define "known" ? There are a million bands out there producing music of every kind. There is more music being produced now than ever before. Just gotta know where to look. If all your music comes from HOT 103, well yeah, it's going to be a certain brand.
  21. Yes.... 5 Canadians on the OL is nice, but if they can't protect, it doesn't make much sense... EDIT: My mistake, looks like they are only starting 4 Canadians on the OL now. Still...
  22. Toronto isn't making it easy on themselves but when I watch them they look like a .500 team. They'd have to go 5-3 over the final 8 to make it to 9-9, though. 8-10 seems more likely for them. Can Edmonton and Winnipeg both do better than 8-10? I think so. So yes, there will be a crossover.
  23. I don't know what to say about this video but it's wrestling related and it's Kliff Kingsbury: http://www.wrestlinginc.com/wi/news/2016/0906/617252/lita-said-last-night-raw-went-off-the-rails/
  24. Yes... Rask is there too. They will have a decent top line and top 2 D but they don't have the depth. But you never know. Chemistry is funny and the Finns always seem to have it.
  25. Wow! Didn't think we'd ever see Hunt back in the CFL. As much as I hate the Esks I'd still like to see him do well. Wish we had picked him up. Wonder what his salary is like?
