  1. After watching Strangeworld and reading the massive backlash behind it, I can see why Disney is going back to the formula that has brought them success all of these years. Also has a parent of two girls... Frozen still is massive with the young girls. They all want to be Anna/Elsa and still will sing the Let it Go song.
  2. I made the mistake of going on the Riderfans page to see what they are thinking and I was pleasantly surprised that most of the people were giving honest opinions...... until I read this:
  3. This is not true at all, have you watched the guy play? He's very average when it comes to speed. Davis in his one season that he started 9 or so games ran for a total of 115 yards. Cornelius this past season after starting about the same amount of games ran for 502 yards. Davis can do a goal line plunge, but the guy has never shown to have fast wheels ever. He's not elusive at all also. His arm is also very average , I don't have any metrics that can show this but if you watched him play the guy is not throwing balls out like a cannon similar to Cornelius. He's got a slightly above average arm but he's not throwing heaters at all to anyone. It's a misconception that the dude is some athletic beast, I'm not sure where comes from?
  4. I'd hope they wouldn't of white wash the Black Panther series lol.
  5. This! Davis isn't a fast or elusive QB, Prukop is far more mobile and slippery. Davis has a decent but not a cannon arm either. Davis only ability seems that he can usually stay healthy. No idea why anyone would waste time with him outside of being a 3rd string warm body that is familiar with the game.
  6. Is it more sad that Lanny is more remembered about his backstage flexibility trick and doing a fake shoot with Hannibal then his accomplishments in the ring?
  7. At this point why would anyone make an offer for Dom Davis? I'd rather go with a complete unknown who at least has a chance of performing on the field.
  8. I can't think of any year where we were able to retain so many of our top free agents. That's insane!
  9. I think McCrae is above average and isn't like the many small receivers we had brought in over the year (Lankford, Nelson, McKnight). Dude has a lot of speed and I'd like to see him back and I can see him replacing Demski if we lose him.
  10. Losing Schoen will be a larger impact then losing Demski. I like Demski and when he's on he can dominate a game... I just find that sometimes he disappears.
  11. He could do some serious damage with the 49ers if Purdy were to miss some of the next season....
  12. If anyone wants a good laugh, Jim Cornette has several videos talking about the many lies of Hulk Hogan which are hilarious. I never realized the Hulkster is either suffering from dementia or has always been a chronic liar.
  13. So had Hull beat his wife to death in which he nearly did in the quote I posted.. then your opinion would change? What a weird thing that you would put your shield on? I do find it odd that people who were close to him called him a monster and yet someone like yourself who has never met the guy thinks he is a quality individual with flaws? How does that make sense?
  14. I'll take Jake Wieinke to replace Ellingson at the same or lower price please and thank you.
  15. What a terrible problem we have! Potentially losing our starter center and only have 2 great guys to fight over replacing him.
  16. I have a feeling that the Riders grab Caleb Evans and then watch the fans pretend like it's the steal of free agency.
  17. Watch Walters bring back Demski and then also Harris/Evans for back up and the Riders absolutely lose it.
  18. I cannot rationalize Bobby Hull being a good guy purely because he helped bring the Jets and NHL to town. I'm wired differently in that I can never give anyone a pass for beating and apparently nearly killing a woman he supposedly loved and even worse the mother of his children. I cringe for the day when OJ Simpson dies and when you rationalize what he did (allegedly) because he was a great football player and how it's only human nature to be jealous and that because he was on drugs it wasn't his fault.
  19. I'm not sure why anyone would make excuses or try to use alcholism as an excuse for the guys life time of terrible behaviour. If anything I'd say Bobby Hull suffered from extreme forms of narcissism similar to a Peter Nygard where he would think that he is invincible and can do anything because he is above everyone else. If Bobby Hull was a regular 9-5 worker he would of been tossed into jail and nobody would revere him. His great hockey play is what gives him a minor pass for some people who don't want to think of their idol as being a scum bag. Hull - A+ hockey player, F level human being. RIP to his hockey legacy but I have zero respect for the guy as a human being and won't shed a tear for him at all.
  20. So everyone is suppose to ignore the fact that he had zero quality on his o-line and never addressed it for the whole season.
  21. Will security be able to do anything if a problem occurs. I don't think a stern "Please don't do this" will do anything if a drunk/drugged person is on the bus harassing people.
  22. Today I learned that if you have a cart full of toys and walk out of Toys'R'Us , security will do nothing at all. I also learned that toys at Toys'R'Us are insanely expensive and it's almost at a point that it makes sense to just walk out with not paying. $60 dollars for a cheap plastic car, $40 for a plush, $130 for a Batmobile!!!
  23. Is this a bad time to tell that in Winnipeg when VIP's are visiting that they also have snipers lined up. This isn't anything new.
  24. I have not tried Colin's house but will add that to the list thank you for the recommendation. I have gone to Drifters in Lac Du Bonnet and from the outside it doesn't look nice but the inside looks new and the food was really good. The only other restaurant in that area of Manitoba that I've gone multiple time is the Hillside Beach eatery (near Grand Beach), the pizza is ridiculously good on a nice hot summer day. Well worth the travel and visit.
