  1. Burnett apparently took less money to go to BC to get that opportunity too. Hodge was freaking out that they let him walk for such a low amount but if I'm reading this tweet right, there wasn't going to be much the Bombers could do.

    A lot of people are concerned with the new direction of the UFC. Even Rogan has said he'd be out if he wasn't so loyal to Dana. The last PPV was mediocre on paper and lived up to the expectations (Poirier vs Miller being the lone exception). It was not a good night all around for the fighters, refs, or judges. A draw with a point deduction would have been warranted. A warning after the 1st infraction (which was borderline late) and a point taken away after the 2nd (which was clearly late). It was the 1st UFC title fight for Anderson (he's done a ton of Bellator shows) and he didn't do himself any favors... especially when he jumped in early after the 1st two late punches.

    I don't see Floyd agreeing to anything but a straight up boxing match which would mean the 8 or 10oz gloves and a ring. Apparently the Nevada commission is involved in the negotiations somehow so it would be a sanctioned fight and rules would have to be followed.

    No official reason has been given (even Goldie says he has no idea what it came down to). The new owners are cutting staff/fighters left right and center and Bellator is (or at least should be) taking full advantage.
  5. Saw that too but the latest tweets are saying there are multiple teams in on him now.
  6. Mi'chael Brooks also re-upped in BC

    IF this ever happens, they should do a best out of 3 fights... boxing followed by mma, then kickboxing if needed. Floyd mops the floor with him in a straight boxing match but loses in MMA. Kickboxing would be the most even match-up for those two.
  8. Careless as in letting his country club members posts the name & picture of the guy who holds the presidential emergency nuclear package on social media? http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-02-13/indiscriminate-mar-lago-member-poses-nuclear-football-and-posts-facebook
  9. Love this. If this is the only signing we do all day, I'll still be happy!
  10. Well it would seem he did a piss poor job of analyzing their cap situation so this might be addition by subtraction for the Als. Not great timing though for sure.
  11. Stamps take another one off the board.
  12. The starter money thing isn't exactly correct but it's up for interpretation I guess. The quote Walter gave was: I'm reading that as those guys want to get paid more like a Tate/Lulay than an actual starter but Walters is looking for someone cheaper since they want Davis in that role.
  13. Correct. " Keeping was to be Winnipeg’s sixth offensive lineman this season, an area the Bombers remain thin. " http://slam.canoe.com/Slam/Football/CFL/Winnipeg/2016/06/10/22641585.html
  14. If/when this turns out to be true, I hope they throw this one at Jones.
  15. They actually have more than just one article on the incident if you you go to the Edmonton section of their website. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/syrian-refugee-west-edmonton-mall-sexual-assault-reaction-racism-1.3973831
  16. http://www.wsj.com/articles/number-of-illegal-immigrants-in-u-s-holds-steady-at-11-million-1474394518 Illegal immigration peaked at 12.2 million in 2007 under Bush and of those, 6.9 million were from Mexico. The numbers under Obama dropped to 11 million (5.8 million from Mexico). Obama also deported more illegals than any other president so you can't really say he wasn't doing anything about it. Trump is targeting Mexican illegals at a time when their numbers are shrinking but numbers from other places like Asia & Africa are rising.
  17. Ironic considering the number of illegal immigrants in the USA were at a record high under Bush but decreased under Obama. Did your friend happen to vote Democrat the two previous elections for the Republican failure to act?
  18. Affleck out as director for batman. http://www.comingsoon.net/movies/news/808741-ben-affleck-will-no-longer-direct-the-batman#/slide/1

  21. I'd like something like this. I don't go into the chat room during the game (too busy yelling at the TV) but I'd be interested in reading people's thoughts afterwards if it's not already in the GDT.
  22. I'm sure Mike Pence will do the same when he leaves the oval office.
  23. Durant's contract - 1.25 million over 3 years (400k in year 1). Nichols got 1.27 million over 3 years also with 400k in year 1,
