As a person I don't think anyone... as a site owner... I assume most people including yourself.

It may be cheaper in the future to drive down to the States and fly to Vegas and watch the Jets play front row rather then watching them at home....

He absolutely did the right thing. The paramedics (and any police/firefighters) should have on their kit the proper gloves and also a special plastic mask like thing that you can place on the victim which prevents the person giving CPR from getting any sort of saliva or bad stuff on themselves.

It's 30 compressions , 2 breaths ... however if two people are giving CPR then they recommend 15 with 2 , switch off and the other person does 15 with 2. With babies you still do the two finger compressions and then breathe air into the nose and mouth.

I took a first aid course a few months back... the mouth to mouth is back.

Somebody with really deep pockets would need to start something new to compete... I don't see this happening any time soon.

The rookie contract was definitely two seasons...the local press wrote about it and about worrying if the club would lose him....

His first deal was definitely only 2 years... I remember the boards being unhappy because of this.

In Winnipeg yes... in bigger cities nope. To put it in perspective... out East I was making near 6 figures just to do basic html coding. In Winnipeg that same job would pay only 40 grand.

The latest John Oliver show summed up last week quite nicely, I definitely recommend everyone to take a watch.

It would solve a lot of it, you can't cause ten crime sprees while behind bars. Also did you know that once someone has a record, they really don't care about paying $25 dollar fines for selling drugs and having to promise to stay away from drugs/weapons and to not stay out late. The punishment for red light cameras , driving in the bus lane and rolling a stop sign are way more severe then most punishments given out to people with real crimes. If only you knew what the average "punishment" is it would make you sick to your stomach.

If we had a proper justice system they wouldn't have so many officers working so many hours. The re-offenders tie up so much resources. If the bad people were locked away in a terrible place for a longer period of time then the amount of police officers running around re catching the same guys would reduce big time. It is not uncommon for the police to re arrest and waste time on a single person over twenty times.

Drugs are bad

Some more smaller stories... Met Tom Green when he was a correspondant for the late show in Florida years ago, he definitely turns it on when the cameras are rolling. Normal dude when they are off. Saw Richard Gere riding a bike downtown in Winnipeg. He said hello and drove off after I said hey. Met Dean Cain at a club years ago. Was hammered with several ladies following him. Much smaller then I realized. Met tonnes of NHL guys over the years, nearly all of them were really friendly. Met lots of wrestlers... The good ones were undertaker,tatanka, tajiri , Shane Douglas,one of the Bushwhackers, htm and Larry Zbysko was cool. The drugged up ones were Billy Gunn , Sabu , Raven, Jim neidhart and I wasn't sure if Lex Luger was drugged or just really socially awkward. The douches I met were Buff Bagwell, I think it was Ted Hart...younger high flyer that was in wfx. The scariest was Scott Steiner...seeing him at his biggest in person was freaky. Those arms were ridiculous.

Need more plays with Andrew Harris and Darvin Adams...

How is this thread not locked? So much whining and bitching over nothing. I'm amazed Rich hasn't locked this since he usually closes off any personal non football debates.

Both knees were illegal .. Alvarez was desperate. Fun night of fights, I couldn't believe how low of fight IQ that the heavyweight Sherman had in his fight. Literally one leg kick would of ended the fight but yet he tried getting into a slugfest and nearly lost.

Only a complete knob would have or join for a weekly online radio show

This is not true at all, they have to either buy him out or trade him. He had a crap season so I doubt anyone trades for him.

In the early 2000's I remember him coming to my work absolutely trucked up... I think drugs killed his radio career. He used to a complete mess. http://uniter.ca/view/rivers-edge I think nowdays he might have a podcast or an internet show....

Who actually thought that they would be in on Bishop though? It's been made very clear that they want a vet back up Elliott type of guy... not an elite starter.

I feel like a thread should be created for funny celeb stories.... I have a wrestling one. Back in the 80's we were at the airport in Los Angeles waiting for our flight to come home. We hear a commotion and see two very familiar men drunk (possibly on drugs) screaming at some air port security. One man looked to be Iranian with a giant black mustache and a thick accent... the other man was tall with long curlier hair. I was very young at that point and was trying to understand why the Iron Sheik and Jake the Snake Roberts were sitting together since they would be enemies on TV. It turns out that they didn't allow them on the flight because they were really messed up, they had a house show to go to in Winnipeg and missed it since the airlines didn't let them on the plane. I did get two autographs out of the situation. My other fun local celebrity memory is when I was a teen in the 90's working at McDonalds and both Chris Walby and Miles Gorrell helped on Ronald McDonald Big Mac Day behind the counter.... I never felt so tiny as I did standing between two absolute behemoths. Both super awesome guys though.

Danny O'Brien has been playing for the Redblacks for the last 3 seasons... I don't believe he has red hair.
