  1. Well there goes my pick! Columbia, South Carolina (CNN)Haunted by his famous last name and perpetually stuck in the shadows of his anti-establishment rivals, Jeb Bush repeatedly confronted rejection by voters and frustrating setbacks throughout the 2016 presidential race. In South Carolina Saturday night Bush suspended his White House campaign and acknowledged a painful reality: The country was not interested in a third President Bush.
  2. I like the idea in theory. But probably won't work.
  3. I think the issue is the Canadian ratio rule. It's illegal in the uS. Although I wonder if there is a way to get around it with a CBA. I know they didn't last time but probably didn't want to try
  4. Well thank goodness youre here! I was this close to liking it based on my own opinion. Close call.
  5. He was fired when he refused to go rehab. He said some very negative things. Although other guys have too and been welcomed back. He seems in a good place now but had repeated addiction issues. WWE feels like he's a risk. And their fear is if he died while on their watch the media would savage them since he's a gold medalist. It wouldn't just be oh another wrestling death. He's a legit huge sports hero inthink he and Hunter don't get along too Angle was one of the guys Hunter sort of held down on his rise. The really great love triangle storyline should have had Steph choose Angle and propel him into the very top of the promotion but Hunter nixed it saying "my character isn't the type who's woman would leave him". Lol last year angle called Vince looking for a spot and vince blew him off by saying talk to Hunter cause he's in charge of talent. Angle called Hunter and Hunter said they weren't interested. Angle then called vince back and complained. So he was seen as going over hunters head.
  6. This looks weird cause I copied it from another site but it's my review! Canadian Brewhouse is open. I went there last night. Very much a sports bar style place with the focus being a large Cheers-style island Bar in the middle of the place and seating around the perimeter. It was packed. A very buzzy loud atmosphere. I imagine it would be a bit quieter for lunch. Felt a bit claustrophobic with it being jammed but I liked it. Lots of TV's. Bunch of the red goal lights. Tons of staff Food was good beloved the burger. It was $22 so it better be good. Only had bottled beer but they had some special where you take the tankard home as many were doing. Good place for a bunch of buddies. Id go back. They are doing shuttles to jets games for free. There and back. And during nfl season they have speakers you can plcr at your table to listen to your choice of game as you watch on the TV's. I imagine the patio will be a lot of fun as it over looks their little man made lake
  7. Ehlers - Perreault - Wheeler is your new top line with little out.
  8. Little is day to day and doesn't sound too serious. Perreault moves up to 1C which shows how valuable he is as a player who can play any position.
  9. Kurt Angle absolutely wants back in to wwe. But they don't want him unfortunately. He'd be huge for WM
  10. Id trade ladd because he's a UFA. If he signs for what the jets are willing to pay then so be it. I'm happy with that. But he's the cream of the crop for rentals so I'm content to trade him id trade pavs too because of the money savings and we have Helle. I think all things being equal if he was UFA the jets would not have him in their plns next year. So trade him if you can. Might be hard but Calgary is a decent option. But there are other goalies out there. Like Reimer. Pavs probably comes cheap. id keep Stafford. Scores goals. If he's not in the plan after next year then he's a decent rental chip at next years deadline. some people panic and want to trade everyone. Some guys are ripe for trading. I wouldn't trade Thorburn. I wouldn't be upset if we did either. But the intangibles he brings have value. and Perreault should be a major focus. Sheif, trouba, Perreault. Need to get deals with all of them. Don't want to look at trading Perreault at next years deadline. Re-up him asap.
  11. I think the plan had been Taker vs Cena. Cena's injury should keep him out til summer. But Cena is a freak of nature when it comes to recovery. He's made some comments lately that would indicate something is up. I think he's going to try really hard to make it back. I agree about Goldberg. Not neccesarily against Taker but trying to draw 100,000 people? Id bring back anyone who could draw.
  12. Who Will Be: John Cena Who Should Be: Meh, probably John Cena, though I'd argue Sting.
  13. Im still gonna claim Tampa as my pick. THey need to be all in this year and have an asset that isnt helping them anyway, that will look good to the Jets. But as Ladd will be the hottest rental, there should a decent bidding war by the time the deadline rolls around. But who are we kidding, Jets will resign him!
  14. Id Prefer not giving up on Chiarot yet.
  15. The savour Stemp. That signed a PTO because he was so sought after.
  16. I agree. If it was a regulr occurrence then maybe it's over the line. But he took the heat so his players could focus on the game.
  17. Absolutely. Terrible management by the GM. Asset management can make all the difference. If Stankos walks for nothing it's a huge huge loss to Tampa. Jets gave Buff a NTC in the early years and modified in the latter. It gives the player stability but gives the team options at the end.
  18. Hutch would be smart money.
  19. According to the announcers the ref skated over and stared Maurice down. Totally unprofessional. Maurice had some interesting comments after the game. He was still very hot but choosing his words carefully. He said little was undergoing neck x-Rays and Maurice was the only one concerned (speaking about the refs im sure). Media asked if he saw video of the ref laughing and Maurice said that telling him that wasn't helping him. He said laughing would be consistent with the officials overall demeanour about the situation. Ladd had a game. Armia is good. Toronto is so bad.
  20. Doom and gloom because jets sucks to doom and gloom because they just might win!
  21. The UFC announced Thursday that they have postponed plans to use Hall of Famer B.J. Penn on an upcoming show after a sexual assault claim was made against him. "UFC is aware of the recent allegations made against B.J. Penn. The organization requires all athletes who compete in the UFC to act in an ethical and responsible manner, as detailed in the UFC Fighter Conduct Policy. UFC will not tolerate violations of the policy. Every athlete is deserving of proper review and this situation, as with any serious investigations, will be investigated by an independent party and thoroughly reviewed by the UFC. The UFC organization will also cooperate with any law enforcement investigations. In light of the serious allegations, UFC has postponed plans to book Penn for an upcoming bout until more details are determined. "UFC holds athletes who compete in the organization to the highest standard and will continue to take appropriate action, if and when warranted. It is important to note that Penn is considered innocent until proven guilty and UFC is not prejudging this matter." Earlier in the week, Pedro Carrasco, a former reporter with BJPenn.com that had left the site in October, had gone on Twitter with allegations that Penn had sexually assaulted his girlfriend. Even though this alleged attack took place in Hilo, Hawaii, the alleged victim, a 29-year-old woman, filed a police report on Tuesday in Delaware County, Ohio, claiming the incident took place in August. The report has been sent to the Hilo, Hawaii, police department. Penn, 37, who had retired after a loss to Frankie Edgar on July 6, 2014, was expected to return on UFC's April 23 show, although that had not been officially announced by the company. He has been training at Greg Jackson's gym in New Mexico.
  22. Perhaps you glazed over the discussion. If you cant see the point then you wont ever see it, so its not worth rehashing. But if i team WANTS to trade a player in his final year and he refuses, then yes, I question the character of the player. No wow needed!
  23. I watched Bridge of Spies last night. Terrific film!!
  24. It has been said. But I dont see it. It has echos of the original trilogy (not just ANH) but thats the point of Star Wars. I loved it. And im pretty critical when it comes to films.
