Welcome to the new Basketball Thread merging the older Sea Bears and Raptors/NBA threads and now including NCAA & U Sports.

Lets start off with a big trade.

Well this was random

Sea bears advance...I've been impressed with our minor teams lately the bears advance to the finals the fish are on a big winning streak I wish the Bombers and Jets would regain the positive energy (I'm not the only one that sees the second Coyotes logo when I see the Bandits logo am I?)

Seabears are entertaining and goldeyes have the nicest minor league ballpark in North America.

Have more details about the Teddy Allen assault & subsequent injuries been released by the Police? The Sea Bears putting out a couple news releases blaming security at a Winnipeg bar is a bit concerning. They're using their marketing dept to make us believe that it's all the bar's fault & Teddy Allen is the innocent party here. Have the bouncers been charged with assault? You'd think the Sea Bears would habe nothing to say about the incident itself until the Police finish their investigation.

Sometimes investigations can take months, more so if you have unwilling parties.

Thing is, and this is just second hand info as I don’t drink or go to bars but there’s lots of talk that teddy isn’t the first or even last guy the security there basically beat to a pulp. 5 6 on 1 is a pretty regular occurrence there. Is the Seabear innocent?no but he didn’t deeerve to be beaten almost to death by 5 or 6 security guys.

Basically the rumour is the pal security are roid raging losers who look for anything so they can beat ppl up. Not the first incident there, just first one involving a local “celebrity “

Like boujee another fire took it down the other day, there was one a week ago also plus in the fall. 3 incidents there. PAL is the same, not the first incident, not the last. A dude was likely beaten half to death the other day. You walk by there and security eyes you. They are the real probleM.

Technically security aren’t even supposed to be fighting. They are all gonna be in serious trouble and it’s about time. I’d give them the benefit of the doubt if this was incident one with their security but it’s incident 51

I also think that a sports organization shouldn't be using their marketing dept to garner public support for Allen involved in an incident by pointing fingers. This is just strange all around.

Have not seen this much Bush league since 08

No surprise it happened in Brampton. What a hole.

Teddy Allen completed all the medical tests but he won't play tomorrow

Brampton fans right now

Edited August 15Aug 15 by iHeart

G-League next!

What a fun time. Seriously well worth the money. Very entertaining

The league suffered a huge black eye with games being cancelled in Brampton.
