  1. So do we re sign Stempniak (sp?) And Tlusty?
  2. As mentioned in another thread.. You may be able to get this streamed using a kodi box. I will check it out tonight if I get a chance...
  3. He's had quite a bit of giveaways in the last month... But he also has made equal amount of good plays and he's getting tonnes of ice time so the coach must like him. All players have highs and lows and maybe he's having a bit of a low right now
  4. I noticed on a few of the Phoenix channels they had the TSN streaming in 720p... I also just downloaded an add on called Vdubt25 and it has the TSN at 720p and several american streams at 1080p! I guess the big test is whenever the next UFC ppv is on....
  5. Considering Netflix accounts for more then half the bandwidth being used in North America I highly doubt that they will charge everyone.
  6. Just found a Kodi App that streams all of the TSN channels at 720p and several other channels at HD... it appears that the day to cut the cable is soon!
  7. I think the word you are trying to use is versatile.... He has the intangibles such as Frolik which makes him a solid asset to have.
  8. I definitely prefer Buff to stay... even if he does let himself go I would think he would still be much easier trade bait then Ladd....
  9. Pavs made key saves at the end of the game when the defense played soft... Overall it was a very good fast pace game to watch and Stafford is just a solid addition that I really hope we keep. My only gripe is that Ladd really seems invisible as of late ... in regards to the other thread I really think Buff is a much bigger difference maker then Ladd....
  10. Pre Jets he was a rumour / troll man... He's cleaned it up quite a bit over the last three years. Friesen on the other hand... I'm surprised he still is employed..
  11. Which reminds me what my wife once asked me while watching one of the few games she's watched, 'Why don't they just put a huge sumo wrestler in net, there would be no place to shoot'.My response was, 'you can't . . . wait a sec?' Google this... I believe a team tried doing this in the distant past and the league nixed it.
  12. Normally when people say "topic over now" they don't follow it up with another baiting comment just ripe for someone to respond too. Let's try this again.... topic over now!!! How about dem Jets! No doubts!! How about that Myers! Definitely a good pick up!
  13. I wonder if Stafford re signs if that pushes Frolik out?
  14. Says the guy who bad mouthed Sam Katz in the past with no sources
  15. Sometimes I can find streams of TSN or one of the UK sports channels and the games/fights will come through very nice (clear enough that you don't see pixelation) .... it's almost there....
  16. That's a unique way of looking at it but only a fool would see it that way. I dont care about senseless rumours but I do care that people are making unsubstantiated negative claims about people. Sign your full legal name to go with the rumor/ Coming from a guy known as the "Unknown Poster" .....
  17. So yer new here then? Brandon cries every time someone calls him out on his source-less rumours.. But to whine about stories based in reality being given precedence over unsubstantiated crap is beyond the norm.. Lol if you know me personally you would know my sources... I rarely post any kind of rumours on this or ob.com but both times when I actually have real news people cry like a baby because it killed them to find out that lot of the old Bombers were not the most "great" characters and gasp some of the Jets have dirty laundry which explained why they missed games with phantom injuries and/or why they would be on the outs with the club. My news is relevant and mostly impacts the play on the ice. Would it shock you that nearly every Bomber \ Jet cheats on their wives and we have loads of stories about that, but why would I bother posting about something that really makes no difference with the on the ice play..... now when Zach Bogosian continually misses games "randomly" with phantom injuries and then by coincidence Trouba also misses games with mysterious injuries and then why Wheeler is heralded as a great leader and Kane is shipped out of the town... you don't think that this is all relevant? I will try to make a point of posting positive stories as I hear nice stories about guys like Ladd and Slater being absolute good guys... unless I have to post full names of the people involved with them going to see sick kids and doing charity events? Does Gary Lawless ever directly quote his sources on his rumour mill?? If you want to live with your head in the sand go for it, when you grow up and find out that many sports athletes are not squeaky clean it will open your eyes. Heck even Teemu Selanne was in trouble with the law when he was young with the Jets , albeit I don't consider speeding and illegal radar detectors even remotely close as bad as what some of these guys we are talking about do. Still shows that young athletes make bad decisions frequently...
  18. The quality of live sports is my biggest issue with kodi. Everything else about it is fantastic. Any show, including Netflix exclusives, and any movie you could want. The phoenix app had a great ufc channel that unfortunately just closed down..I saw a few UFC's streaming at 720p Live. I think they still have a good NHL channel that definitely has the games online an hour after they air...
  19. Stafford a must sign for the Jets! The guy is money!
  20. Do you really not know the difference or are you being deliberately obtuse? Just having fun
  21. I have been converting over to using Kodi and outside of wanting to watch live sports at decent quality ... you could almost cut cable completely in the near future and simply stick with a good internet plan. Most episodes of any show are uploaded within a few hours and at HD quality.
  22. That would be some damn good advice. I was lucky enough to by my house in 2007, and not long after that the housing prices in Winnipeg really took off. Not the nicest place but it's in a great neighborhood (Portage/Ferry area, south side of Portage). Now, after a little bit of work the house couldn't possibly go for less than 180k if it hit the market. I can remember feeling gouged when I paid 91k. Had no idea how lucky I really was. My brother is buying his first home now, same area roughly but north of Ness. He has to borrow from my folks to get the 10% minimum he needs for CMHC. He's lucky to have that luxury, I have no idea how the next generation of home buyers are going to make it work, especially if their parents can't help them out. Just like they do across North America.... they simply never own the home and continually pay the mortgage... which sucks.
  23. Wasn't Indian a racist word on these boards the other day?
