CM Punk Signs with UFC
As mentioned before... in the heavy weight division out side of maybe 5 or so guys most of the HW's are absolutely useless and anyone with athletic ability can dominate despite having limited skills. I am pretty sure Brock could come in and wipe out nearly every hw the UFC has outside of the top 5 guys.

Josh Portis contract extended
I'm glad we are going with someone with upside rather then signing guys like Brink where you know mediocrity is the peak of his talents...

Now it just gets sad. Stuart gone till February.
...and what do you got? A top 4 defenceman...NOT! Jets not called anyone up yet? Scary! If they intend to call someone up I would think it would have to be now. Makes me wonder if Chevy is still trying to work a trade or signing before midnight. Our 6 D today were: Dustin Byfuglien, Ben Chiarot, Grant Clitsome, Paul Postma, Adam Pardy, Julien Brouillette ...and what do you got? A top 4 defenceman...NOT! Jets not called anyone up yet? Scary!

Chiarot looked very good against Buffalo, he didn't look like a liability at all and playing him really isn't much of any drop off compared to Stuart.

Why no buffalo-Winnipeg thread?
I went to the game... Perrault, Frolik, ,Scheifele , Little all played really hard on offense and Chiarot looked very comfortable out on D. Byfuglien was decent but still has many moments where he was lazy, same goes for Kane. As I said in the other thread Wheeler was just awful... was getting the puck picked from him for most of the game and really could not do anything at all on the ice. Something must be up with him because he seemed so flat.

Bombers re-sign Matt Bucknor!
I much rather the team sign these kind of players who showed potential then for them to sit on their hands and lose them to other teams. It's a good signing because of his passport.

Etch Fired
I'd much rather we go forward with a guy who can build a great D around great players rather then a coach trying to fit mediocre players on an unproven defensive system. The fact we have to settle for a guy like Kuale just because he suited Etch's D made absolutely no sense to me. This is Christmas coming early and of the two Coordinators I was much more unhappy with Etch because of his track record of mediocrity and their really was no way that his defensive would ever dominate for a full season.

Scams
Biggest scam I fell victim to was my wife saying that once we get married that I would be getting appointments on a frequent basis!! It was all a lie!!
-
Trouba gone until Feb
I went to the game tonight.... Chiarot looked really really good tonight. The only D guy that I saw playing flakey was Pardy and Clitsome to a certain extent. Frolik and Perreault definitely put in a great effort and for some reason Wheeler looks absolutely disinterested or totally unfocused on the ice.... clearly was the weakest link on the main lines.

CM Punk Signs with UFC
Dos Caras is 63 years old! I meant the Jr... the one who was knocked out silly by Mirko Crocop http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Alberto-Rodriguez-2269

Richie Hall won't be back as Riders DC but is offered a role...
If the Blue had done this... Friesen would be writing daily articles about horrible the organization is.

CM Punk Signs with UFC
O I think he will never amount to much... But the bottom of ufc barrel is still beatable for a new guy. I say they match him with Dos Caras

CM Punk Signs with UFC
The low end guys in the ufc he can most definitely beat... The drop off of skills from the top to the bottom is ridiculous. Don't forget the bottom end guys in the ufc still work day jobs and can't dedicate 100% for training. My other point of bringing in a retread who is so over the hill is also a possibility. I am sure nearly anyone who is in shape with the most basic of skills on these boards could probably beat Stephen Bonner these days. Look at Kimbo... He managed to best some jobbers with barely any skills.

CM Punk Signs with UFC
If he fights a name it will be one who is so washed up that he will have a fighting chance. I think it would be awesome if it was him and Sakuraba in Japan.

CM Punk Signs with UFC
Kimbo won in the ufc enough said. Of course CM punk doesn't have a huge pedigree of combat fighting. But he will bring eyes and I'm sure he can at least compete with some other tomato cans. The UFC is so diluted and had some awful talent fighting in the prelims so why not cm punk? Did anyone see how god awful Tito and Bonnar looked last month...

Maurice Leggett signs contract extension
I'm in for a royal blue leggett jersey!
-
Where does Kevie end up in 2015?
I say Montreal
-
Leggett on verge of extension.
If he re signs... Then I suggest for whoever was looking for a jersey to get his name and number over Z Anderson

Former Bomber QB LeFors
I vividly remember at the time on ob.com it was clear by the fans and media that the issue was the receivers running the complete wrong routes and that Lefors was throwing balls away because the plays were busted from the get go. Nobody understood the offense and Lefors simply was avoiding the turnovers.
-
Mike Benevides Fired
I thought Khari interviewed for the HC job?
-
George Cortez won't be back with Riders in 2015
Because he has a proven track record and most people ignore Sasks woes because of injured qb and crap receivers dropping balls. MB has never shown an elite offense and the fans are tired of mediocrity on offense. What do you suggest the blue do?

Terminator
To retract my previous statement apparently James Cameron consulted with the movie so at least he has a bit of input.
-
Terminator
It was a good trailer.. I am concerned because of the change in directors and James Cameron not being involved.

Patrick Neufeld extends contract through 2017
