Huff saw a value in Shomari. Some people here dont. He also saw first-round value in Ameet Pall. Huff is far from infallible. Personally I'd have liked to see Shomari on teams to start with and work his way into the rotation like anyone else. Oh well.

I was going through the Steam library and decided to fire up Civilization IV over the weekend. I was quickly reminded that Nimoy did most of the voicework, reading quotes of famous leaders or pieces of scripture throughout the game. It will be a very long time before this man fades from memory.

It's because of moments like this we have to add * Please note player participation is strictly by invite only * to the press release

I'll never forget The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins. Jeez now it's stuck in my head.

My wife is half way through episode 7. I'm sure I'll get the coles notes when I get home from work. She claims it is not as engrossing as seasons 1 & 2.... but I repeat, she is already halfway through episode 7 the day it launched... pretty sure that's the definition of engrossing.

That was easy.

Thought this was relevant

To update to the latest roster, try opening up the online play menu, such as playing with a friend or having a match made for you. This should download both the latest tuner settings and rosters. The edit lines section is not very intuitive I'll give you that, but I don't know why you're experiencing the problems you're describing. Press I think L3 (on PS3) to let the coach choose the best lines for you, then tinker. Should be as easy as going to, say, top line RW, pressing X (or A for you XBoxers), then being presented with a list of players to choose from; whoever you choose takes that spot on the line, but doesn't necessarily trade spots on the roster with the guy he's replacing. Sorry, I'm describing by memory and I don't recall it being all that difficult, but maybe there are quirks I haven't run into yet. I upgraded from 13 to 15. Wow, I love 15 , best NHL game so far in my opinion. The skating is so much smoother, the shooters accuracy has gone way up, and the hits... so much more jarring than they've ever been. Collisions can be epic.

So then you're saying that Kohlert is better than Watson? More reliable than Watson, anyways.

Pruneau was pretty good, too. They'll miss Simmons big time though.

Hank needs someone to throw to... but ya, this stinks of desperation.

You're right, the best way to market the team to the public is just to send out a mass e-mail about the hiring of a new coach. Maybe they can just include it as a hidden message in the wanted ads next week. You think a presser to announce the hiring of Hall would help market the team? Really? The only folks who watch the pressers are the rabid fans who you don't need to sell the Bombers to. The 'news' papers would certainly carry the story. That's where the non-rabid fans get their info anyway. And what do you think helps build the story? A press conference. With quotes. For the story. Not to mention the photo ops with everyone smiling and shaking hands, and Hall in his shiny new W hat. A mass text/email just doesn't have the pomp and circumstance befitting a new coordinator.

That tweet is Chris Greaves saying good luck to Mike Renaud

He's nasty. Maybe we'll draw some penalties when opposing DL's start taking swings at him in retaliation for 'giving them the business'

I'll have to lift a few extra Bombays on your behalf I guess. **** cancer. Congrats!!!

I hope my friends and family enjoy their super-hero themed bomber t-shirts they will be getting for Christmas.

I was also a Pat White fan. Wouldn't it be something if him and Steve Slaton get reunited in the CFL at some point?

Wow, talk about horribly misrepresenting a story. Here is the actual story for anyone interested: http://www.oregonlive.com/sports/oregonian/john_canzano/index.ssf/2014/11/canzano_her_name_is_brenda_tra.html Super interesting read. I wonder if she will end up speaking at Oregon after all. Speaking to Iso's remark about it being 'too late' - perhaps it's too late for a conviction, but not too late for today's Oregon players to learn something about being a decent human. Good for her for coming forward. I would have preferred these guys got their just desserts in prison, but I guess we'll have to settle for Tracy overcoming her emotional trauma to promote awareness of sexual abuse and maybe help in preventing other women from suffering a similar fate.

Guess he was not tired after that run. I know a lot of people can shrug and say he should have been a man or a pro, he should have just sucked it up and got back in the lineup... but man, what a heart-breaker! One second you're a hero who likely just won the biggest game of his life, the next you're crashing back down to earth. I can't blame him for that one.

I hate to admit I was one of the people booing the LeFors jersey give away. As I recall, the crowd was already booing the offense as they slinked off the field after another pathetic attempt to move the ball... then came the poorly timed announcement of the LeFors jersey giveaway and the booing just intensified. It was pretty clear that, at the time, the crowd was blaming LeFors (or LeForskin, according to some peoples modified jerseys). I always thought that LeFors got a raw deal, with his contract restructured mid-season and being blamed for the failures of an offense featuring frequent hand-offs to Brock Ralph. He was just one of many people who paid for Mike Kelly's mistakes.

Wow, what a time for a block. Storybook

I too would like to hear a clear explanation for this, I know I couldn't easily explain it... at least not without getting into much frowned upon racial generalizations.

Even if they report themselves as straight, they are still gay.... The question is whether or not the same percentage would be applied to professional sports, and why wouldn’t it be? You could argue that it is a small sample size compared to the general population and the stats would be skewed somewhat, but by that rationale, the percentage could just as easily be larger as it would be smaller. Seems people want to believe that the percentage would be smaller because professional athletes should be more “manly”. Its more like, professional team sports -- especially football, hockey, baseball, etc -- are life long pursuits. You start when you can basically walk -- those that make it to the bigs are those whose talent matches their ability to endure 20 years of training, 20 years of locker rooms, 20 years of not so subtle homophobia. Its only logical that many gays -- especially until the last 10 years or so -- would gravitate towards non-team endeavours where their sex life would never come up. Its why many gay men went into diving, rowing, fencing, even martial arts. All sorts of this. It's not that the individual couldn't compete because of his or her orientation, it's because the environment is (woefully) hostile towards homosexuals, so much so to the point that many would wash out before making it to the pro ranks.
