'NHL is ready for gay player,'
The Unknown Poster replied to The Unknown Poster's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
You're insults aside I'm not a guy who play wrestled in front of 15 people. My knowledge isn't from reading nonsense on the Internet. I've been in the business for nearly 15 years. You can disagree with me but it's an area where I have an expertise and colleagues at various levels. Plus you're just plain wrong about gays in wrestling and you're taking a gimmick and pretending it's real to form a judgement. You looking foolish on the subject isn't pushing my buttons and this has gone way off topic but you wanted to discredit my opinion on gays in the NHL by attacking an industry of which you know little about. But I think wrestling discussion can be kept to the wrestling thread. -

Why would you debate wrestling with me? I'm in the business. Adonis developed the gimmick himself and used it after he left WWE. It wasn't a punishment. Doing the gimmick he was programmed with Hogan and Piper. You don't get programmed with them as punishment. WWE consulted with the Gay & Lesbian alliance for the Billy and Chuck angle. Gunn later said he had no issue with it and would do it again. there are many gay guys in wrestling both wwe and locally. If there is one "sport" that doesn't have an issue with it its wrestling. -

Brandon you don't know what you're talking about. -
Terrible. Jets better get their **** together or they could be in a bad place after the road trip.

You're remarks on wrestling are absurd. Please expand on what you mean so I can accurately respond.To your other point again I simply say this: if you don't think this is a big deal or there is importance in coming out then so be it. But don't for one second think your opinion accurately reflects reality because it doesn't. As someone else said I think people think they are doing something good by saying "who cares" but there aren't undertansing the greater issue. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x125y87_goldust-marlena-in-piper-s-pit-raw-3-4-96_sport And a whole bunch of stuff when he was facing Razor Ramon that was not so good. I don't have all the clips but they made it seem like homosexuality was disgusting. But hey it is coming from the same place that had a 80 year old lady giving birth to a plastic hand so I guess wrestling shouldn't be used as an example of professional sports since it's pretty crass at times. Wrestling has been far more accepting of gay performers than the big sports leagues. A person portraying a character is different. Goldust was portrayed as someone trying to mess with with his opponents and was asked on RAW by Lawler if he was gay and he said no. Someone tried to hang this on me in another thread awhile back. Was that you? There is a lack of knowledge about gay issues or wrestling or both. -

Theo Fleury isn't gay. He was sexually assaulted by a pedophile. How can't you know there's a difference? I could be totally wrong and I may apologize but I thought he continued the relationship well into his adult life? Maybe I'm getting him mixed up with one of the other victims. As I said before it was under very sad and disgusting situation but never the less he was courageous to come out both for being a victim and for being either gay or bi. What?? -
I'll preface this by saying I'm not a "Bond" fan per se. I like movies though. I haven't seen much of the old Bond films and what I hve seen I feel like they don't hold up. I'm a fan of Pierce Brosnan and loved him as Bond, a role he was born to play (and would have earlier if not for Remington Steel). I like Craig though I find he's less deep. But anyway, saw Spectre. Thought it was shallow and lame. Not terrible. Just not overly interesting. I was somewhat bored. When bond finally fought Batista it felt like the first action of the film. These movies seem repetitive. Spectre seemed to lack heart. It was almost as if it was someone's version of a Bond film and not the authentic thing.

If someone wants him at 7X7 that's good news. Trade him before the deadline to some team that is dying to have him and soak them for a good return. -
Shamrock vs Gracie III
The Unknown Poster replied to The Unknown Poster's topic in General Discussion
It's all about what draws. -
Shamrock vs Gracie III
The Unknown Poster replied to The Unknown Poster's topic in General Discussion
I'm opposed to the freak show. It's business. UFC used to be against signing guys who would sell but hasn't paid their dues in MMA but even they changed their tune Marketable fighters don't grow on trees. -
Shamrock vs Gracie III
The Unknown Poster replied to The Unknown Poster's topic in General Discussion
Yeah. Freak show. But...a freak show that will sell. If Gracie is still Gracie he will win i would think. But I'm hardly an expert. Intrigued by teases of Angle vs Shamrock. Angle would draw pretty big. And I think its been a dream of his to have one fight. He and shamrock would definitely know how to sell it. Could also be Angle trying to leverage some media Attention into a WWE deal. -
On tonight's Bellator 145 : With a Vengeance broadcast, Bellator CEO Scott Coker brought out Kurt Angle to announce a February 19 2016 bout in Houston between Ken Shamrock and Royce Gracie. This will be their third MMA match and first since a draw at UFC 5 in April 1995. Ken Shamrock and Royce Gracie first faced off at the inaugaral UFC event on November 12th, 1993. Royce defeated Shamrock in 57 seconds with a rear naked choke in the tournament semi-finals. Royce would go on to win that tournament to become the first UFC tournament champion. The two would face-off again less that 2 years later at UFC 5. The two fought to a 36 minute draw for the first Superfight Championship. Feb. 19 at Toyota Center in Houston, Texas at “Bellator 149: Shamrock vs. Gracie.” will be their 3rd and hopefully last match. Also announced for the first tentpole event of 2016 is the return of Kimbo Slice vs Dada 5000. Kurt Angle, during his announcement, teased a match between he and Shamrock and that could be the direction they'd head, should Shamrock win.

Definitely 97 was April. I have some video of it. I worked over night shift at Grace Hospital which is set back from portage so we didn't know how bad it was til morning. I had my mom's cavalier and it was damn good in the snow. Got all the way down pembina but the drifts were too high to get into Waverly Heights. Ditched the car in a parking lot and walked the rest of the way. Thing is, snow clearing was so much more improved by 97. In 86 it took days and days to clean up. 97 was a lot faster. And one month later it was warm and flooding

I remember riding my bike home from school on the Friday evening as it just started to snow. And Monday they cancelled school due to the snow, tuesday was Remembrance day so no school anyway. And then they made us go on the Wednesday. My little sister had a heart issue and needed to go to the ER in the middle of the night. A skidoo showed up for her and my mom and took them out to a major street where a 4X4 took them the rest of the way. It was pretty crazy.

Saw a FB thread about this and remembered I had uploaded a video I came across on an old VHS tape. I have a box of old tapes I've slowly been digitizing. Anyway, this was 29 years ago this weekend! Who remembers this? Who has a good story to tell?

Im not a journalist. I did read the article. Link was included in the tweet. Do you need me to wipe your ass for you too? The quip at the bottom of your post suggested you hadn't. No the quip suggested I was making fun of Justin's silly answer to a serious question.

Crosby or Toews as Captain of Team Canada?
The Unknown Poster replied to Taynted_Fayth's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
Both are very successful. Hockey is a team sport. I'd go with Toews now. But I have no issue with Crosby. Sometimes these things are awarded to a player until that player "loses" it. Is Mike Babcock the best coach in hockey? No. But he's HC. Crosby is having a rough season but he's always been a warrior on the ice. So to me, we're lucky to have both. -
That was a poor decision. Also considering the amount of backlash over wearing anything Aboriginal as halloween costuming.

Sure, why not. Whatever. WWE Network and Wrestlemania
The Unknown Poster replied to Goalie's topic in General Discussion
Worst idea ever. So its probably under serious consideration. -

Game 14 : Jets @ Sens
The Unknown Poster replied to FrostyWinnipeg's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
Get the province to forgive the loan and hand the Bombers to True North. I'd be in favour. But they wont take it with the debt. -
I agree about sky fall. Thought it was mediocre. Not sure why all the love. Casino Royale was way better.
