Did what he said he was going to do. "Trump signs order withdrawing U.S. from Trans-Pacific trade deal" Thanks Donald! When he wasn't busy picking drone targets, this was Obama's main project for the last year and half of his second term. arm twisting, and the like to ram this through. This is a kick in Obama's nuts with a frozen boot by Trump. and a win for all of us. should be funny seeing his opponents twist into knots figuring out how this is somehow the wrong thing to do. (Hillary was all in for the TPP.)

Laws aside, de facto violence against women and children is a world wide problem. especially horrendous is India/Pakistan. There's no shortage of people in Canada that think it's ok for an adult to beat a child as a teaching method. Bet it's easily twenty percent of the population.

Game 50 : The Drakes @ The Jinx
Other than a Jets win my hope for this game is that the fans do not chant "katey Perry"

Around The League Off Season Discussion
Give Duron Carter some credit, the guy still wants to play football,he's a very good player, he's going to play somewhere that is probably the last place he thought he'd be playing, and he plays hard every play as far as I can tell. I seem to recall that the Bombers didn't exactly demolish the Roughriders last season. although the way they're going about it is unusual. I predict they're (Sask) going to have a good team, this season, or next at the latest.

nothing to worry about here. which is worse, that it veered off in the wrong direction, or that they say they didn't know what happened?

oil subsidies, IMF... they make it higher than one half trillion. Trump makes George Bush junior seem like a genius.

We might want to cancel the half a trillion annual subsidies that oil business gets as a starting point for changing things. more importantly, I see there's some plagiarism going on here!

Sounds like Trump is going to let them destroy their National Parks. that would be my guess. I suppose also, open up drilling off the east and west coasts, which the people up and down there will love. /sarcasm. Cause there aren't any restrictions on fracking in most places, except for instance New York state but those are state restrictions. The funny part is there is an oil oversupply, and it's not going away, according to some energy types. So all they'll do is destroy some of their beautiful parks for oil that isn't needed/wanted/will drive down the price. bad news for Alberta projects. blah blah edit blah

Maximum Value for our 1st & 5th picks
didn't jacob ruby handle the Bombers D line ( 55 I guess) pretty well in at least one game last season? I remember that through the fog, that he was supposed to be easy pickings, then he wasn't.

LOL! I heart's been saying bring back Pav all along.

Game 48 : Alexander @ The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Team
Putin is behind this! Re Pav... this guy is displaying a lot of good manners and politeness, through all of this. When he was demoted I heard an interview, he sounded very dissapointed, but handled it really well, and now doing the same coming back into this mess. And he's taking a large pay cut for some reason, yet he's saying at the same time, he's happy with beinh back with the Jets. On a personal basis, I like this guy for this.

I didn't realize it was that ridiculous and laughable. Someone currently working in the Kremlin, is giving information about Putin/Trump to someone, who knows someone, that the Kremlin person knew twenty years ago? persona non grata in Russia for twenty years, and we're to believe that there are dumkopfs in the Kremlin spilling their guts to him! LOL!!!

People don't seem to realize how horrible Obama's appointments were. or Bill Clintons' before him. Billionaires, wall street cronies, hedgefund flunkies and lickspittles, and war mongers. .... wonder if our politicos are as clueless about cyber stuff as theirs? - US Politics
