  1. If they remove the park and ride completely then how would you get to the game? The park and ride is completely optional. Do the Jets have a park and ride? How does everyone get to those games? Can those folks afford the pricier parking options downtown?
  2. It's a great example, for myself usually I take my dad and we go to George's on Regent and feast on a massive meal at half the price and then head off to the game. I'd be more inclined to eat at the game if the prices were more reasonable. For the both of us to take a cab directly to and from the game, I'd imagine the cost would be well over $50 dollars. So for us to spend even $20 dollars for the two of us using the park and ride.... to be driven right to the front gate directly and then picked up at the same spot and driven back to the park and ride. To me that's great value. I'm not familiar with the price of parking my car the stadium, but I'd imagine that with the gas and headaches of trying to slowly get in and out ... It wouldn't be worth me saving a few bucks.
  3. I'm in Le-Favour of keeping LeFevour (soooo corny).... main reason is that Danny gives us a different look with his running abilities and maybe we can have a few different plays designed to use his skills as a change of pace.
  4. Is it a large expense though? If affordability was a key point then why not cut the cost of concessions down to comparable prices for what you would pay at a normal fast food restaurant?
  5. When I see people massively overpaying for beer at the stadium I would assume that most fans have the extra 5 dollars to get to the stadium and back.
  6. Based on hockeydb.com... Maurice has coached 19 seasons... if he wins two more times this year.... he will then have tied his 3rd best coaching season in his career. This season has been on par with his average success during his time in the league. I don't see them canning Maurice at all and I think he gets a 2 year deal in the off season.
  7. The park and ride is fantastic, I'd be willing to pay $10 for the service if they needed to generate more cash. I'd suggest that adults pay $10 and children at $5 or even free. It's a great service.
  8. The guy was a winner, he definitely if healthy would be a solid back up for a team to have. The numbers don't wow but the Wins/Losses do impress. He was also doing this with a team that didn't have the crazy defense that Bishop had during his magical run several years ago.
  9. My cheap shots are more so poking fun then actually trying to win an argument or to upset anyone else, I'm not sure about Goalie on his intents or not. I missed the show as per life with a new born and a toddler... I'm disappointed about missing out on the Hardy Boys since I was a huge fan of them back in the day. Based on what I read... I'm disappointed on how they ended things with the Taker... They could of done a whole lot more with him and his gimmick and maybe passing the gimmick along to someone else. A big missed opportunity. I missed out on the HOF, did Jim Cornette cause any trouble since he seems to be such a big mouth based on his youtube videos/podcasts? He seems to talk a big game but I can't imagine him having the guts to say anything to anyone's face?
  10. What I no longer hold this title???
  11. Cheaper, younger, mobile, no one was willing to pay LeFev starting money.....
  12. I have no prob with LeFevour as a 3rd string/backup. The guy is mobile and has experience. Flanders also returns kicks... I don't remember Marshall doing this.
  13. I will disagree... I thought Flanders was much smoother and had much more speed. Stats wise: Marshall - 4.4 average, longest run was 26 yards Flanders - 6.1 average, longest run was 50 yards
  14. I really don't see any holes that we need to fill via free agency. If we can get 1 or 2 starters from the draft then we are in a great position moving forward. If we can get a bargain on a 6th oline guy and maybe a Canadian receiver then that would be gravy for us...
  15. I thought Jackson signed in Toronto? Also no chance in heck that we are going for him. If the Blue were to go for another receiver I assume it would be Fantuz since I think he's a FA....
  16. From what I read on riderfans... Owens is brought in to be the returner. Surely they could find someone cheaper via the database? 2 year deal also to boot?
  17. Owens at a low price is an ok signing.. if I were the Riders I would of signed Denmark before him....
  18. Maybe we draft a NI receiver... Also just because we lose burnett... this doesn't mean we can't bring in another young guy from down South to replace him.
  19. They dumped Durant , that alone gives them money for Dennis. The rest of the signings were not that large. I do hope that they give a lot of cash up front and that it comes around and bites them in the end.

    He can finally have his fight with a now faded Anderson Silva...

    The UFC really could use a new matchmaker or a strategy for building stars and keeping older legends relevant for the casual fans. For example why in the world would they put BJ Penn who has looked terrible for years against a young guy who clearly is light years ahead of him at this point in time. BJ Penn has a following and can be an entertaining fighter and a nice draw for a co main event to complement a card. By him being completely destroyed in the cage it kills his legacy and really does nothing for Yair Rodríguez's ascension. To me it would of made more sense having BJ fight against someone that he could at least have a chance of beating while making it entertaining. I also don't understand why they put Jared Cannonier against Glover Texeiria? Glover is nearing the end of his career and is/was ranked #3... so instead of having him fight in a title eliminator they put him against an unranked opponent who barely got by a D level fighter in his last fight? It looked so bad on PPV when Glover kept taking him down... it made the product look really weak on screen. Cirkunov would of looked much better in that fight and yet they let him go to Bellator because they don't want to spend a few extra dollars? It's bizarre that Fox cards can be much higher quality then PPV's that they expect people to put money down on. Same goes with prelims on fox having more star power then the ppv cards... I almost miss the days of Spike TV where the free cards would be entertaining with only one or two stars while the ppv cards were loaded top to bottom.
  22. Go figure... we score 3 goals with Helle in and we win... if only someone on here wasn't a fan of that stat....
