  1. A scion of the Bronfman family a few weeks ago got caught up in a cult scandal of some sort, IIRC.
  2. Don't know what to feel about this possibility, but I would bet he goes east
  3. The problem with big banks happens when they get to the point where they are "too big to fail", or more correctly, when they get to be "too big to let fail because of their incompetence". A conventional economic theory says that no financial institution should be allowed to control more that 8% of the market. After that, they are no longer answerable to anyone- not even their shareholders or governing bodies.
  4. Well, that's the life of Bryan, I guess. Funny, on paper it looked like he had all the things you would look for in a potential QB.

In his tweet, Trump skipped over the Heisman Trophy winner to celebrate Ohio State’s Nick Bosa — who missed most of the 2018 season — for being picked second. “Congratulations to Nick Bosa on being picked number two in the NFL Draft. You will be a great player for years to come, maybe one of the best. Big Talent! San Francisco will embrace you but most importantly, always stay true to yourself. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” he tweeted.
  6. In the report, there was a line that was easy to miss. Apparently Johnny Manziel went out of his way to arrange and pay for several teammates on his AAFL team to be able to eat and have a place to stay. A glimmer of hope that Manziel may actually be a decent human being at times.
  7. I gotta say this: every time I see the title on this thread, I instantly recall a song from "The Life Of Brian" movie.
  8. `He should have added and "Eh?" at the end. And then go to Timmy's.
  9. I have liked Konar's play since he came into the league. He is no Muamba but a solid linebacker- particularly against the run.
  10. Hey, hey. No bad-mouthing Saskatchewan. That's our job in this forum.
  11. It is the bankruptcy trustee's job to wring every last dollar out of whatever assets might remain. I do not know if under US laws, employee owed wages are given priority in company dissolutions but I would bet not. So, the trustee is working for creditors and creditors only.
  12. He's obviously being paid by the hour but it must be like picking through a landfill site for beer bottles.
  13. I would think so, but the international barrier would be an issue. However, there is not an agreement between the two leagues and there is probably no one at AAF left alive to pursue the action, or pay for it.
  14. And a sizeable retainer to the lawyer up front. If the corporation (AAF) has no tangible assets, you would end up with an unenforceable judgement after spending a fair bit of money.
  15. Yup. 'Cause a camel is a horse designed by a committee.
  16. At that rate of production, he would have 500 yards in 18 games. Pass.
  17. Your suggestion and mine have about an equal chance of implementation.
  18. How about 7 games in the first round, five in the second, three in the third and a one-shot for the final? Yeah. Right. Like That's gonna happen.
  19. They're gonna throw all kinds of weird rules and procedures out there just to get attention. I would think that darned few are going to survive.
  20. Anything Vince McMahon says should be taken with a bucket of salt. He is a vaseline-covered snake.
