Story of my life... my wife watches way too many of the same shows I do so we're constantly waiting for each other to be around to watch stuff.

I would like to see a new Trek series. I never really watched Enterprise, saw a few episodes here and there and never really got into it, Voyager to me was just terrible but when I was young I loved TNG and DS9, the latter being my favourite of the series. I think given the way people view TV now it would lend itself very well to some longer running story arcs as opposed to having an alien of the week situation. Just have to remember that Star Trek really isn't about the big space battles and adventure like Star Wars is (something I think they failed to recognize in the last couple movies). Keep it focussed on examining what humanity is and I think they've got something.

I don't think they need to cut Denmark right away. How about we try to have a solid group of starting receivers plus a capable rookie ready to come off the bench. Adams - Dressler - Smith - Denmark - Kohlert , then let the new guys fight it out for the extra receiver spot.

I'm at the game. First time I've put on the Ladd jersey since he was traded. Jets season is done. Gonna show appreciation for what he did for this team and city.

Ok, I'll bet Kaner is playing there before long!!!!!!!!!

The city, team, and owners haven't even been announced. It isn't even guaranteed to happen.

Natural hat trick for Connor in the 2nd period. 3 goals in 8 minutes and 21 seconds. He's gonna be fun to watch next year.

No sense getting worked upped about the expansion draft until the rules for drafting and protecting are on the table and that includes players with MNC and NTC . There will be back and forth between the NHL and the PA before it happens if it happens.

Panarin is... and he's played 3 years or so of Pro in the KHL so the answer is YES he's eligible.

Cormier better be in the AHL next season, unless he's moving across the pond. I'd be perfectly fine seeing him with another organization. I just don't see what value he brings.

Regardless of Chidago's pick. I think it is important to lose to night and make sure we finish as low as possible in the standings to give us the best odds on a high pick.

So the plaintiff holds up what is suppose to be a 22 Slide proposal. Ironically, he uses the Redblacks trademark on the cover of the proposal.

Everyone is missing the bigger issue? Why does Hunt end every sentence in a question mark? As if he were starring in Clueless? Seems strange?

Here is what the CBA says... 11.8 Individually Negotiated Limitations on Player Movement. (a) The SPC of any Player who is a Group 3 Unrestricted Free Agent under Article 10.1(a) may contain a no-Trade or a no-move clause. SPCs containing a no-Trade or a no-move clause may be entered into prior to the time that the Player is a Group 3 Unrestricted Free Agent so long as the SPC containing the no-Trade or no-move clause extends through and does not become effective until the time that the Player qualifies for Group 3 Unrestricted Free Agency. If the Player is Traded or claimed on Waivers prior to the no-Trade or no-move clause taking effect, the clause does not bind the acquiring Club. An acquiring Club may agree to continue to be bound by the no-Trade or no-move clause, which agreement shall be evidenced in writing to the Player, Central Registry and the NHLPA, in accordance with Exhibit 3 hereof.

Yeah, i read that earlier and all i could do really was just laugh. This guy doesn't really have much of a case at all here, prove it really and i doubt he can.

Speculation in a jetsnation article that came out yesterday. http://jetsnation.ca/2016/3/17/nhl-expansion-and-what-it-means-to-the-jets/score I've never heard of anything like that before either. I'm still thinking there is a good chance NMC may be exempt from the expansion as a NMC only limits trades, waivers, and loans.

Blizzard games tended to have some interesting stories but this film concerns me greatly.... I think dungeons and dragonning it is a big concern. I also worry they'll try and stuff too many Easter eggs in for fans it will just be too silly.

I could think of something else to wipe with that rag...BUTT that would be rude

Why is he ruining his nice gold helmet like that?

Man, I wish I was at home so I could watch Daredevil. Except my wife watches it with me, so...I wish we were both at home.

Creed was really good. I enjoyed it more then I thought I would. I don't think Rocky's kid would play into being a boxer seeing as how in Rocky Balboa he's a skinny guy that works in an office. You don't just start becoming a boxer all of a sudden unless you're already a big guy. I think they would just let him pass and continue on with Michael B Jordan, but who knows.

Gonna finally watch Creed this weekend...looking forward to it. My dad was a body builder when I was a kid and lived for those Rocky training montages. I was raised on those movies. Have heard good things about the new one...

Helle Scheif Wheeler Morrissey buff trouba will be protected for sure. Ehlers and Connor won't need to be. Why not expose Burmi... he's a fa next July 1st. Stafford also. Perreault also. Unless Perreault signs a new deal he will be left exposed also. We will lose 1 player. That's it. That player we lose won't be a guy with a future here. That's the bottom line

lol derail this thread, Im pretty sure we've rode the crazy train quite a bit on various movies, hell last few pages were all about transformers and **** lol. That wouldnt surprise me about Stallone, I recall hearing waaay back in his prime because he was only like 5'7" or 5'8" they used to use camera angles in his movies to make him look bigger next to his co-stars to make his role as action star more believable, so if he decided taking some real hits was necessary, wouldnt doubt it in the least

Watching Rocky IV...heard in order to make it more realistic Stallone got Lundgren to really hit him, apparently he got hurt pretty bad too. My gf sleeping beside me while I watch...training scene, she thought I was watching porn LOL Anyway...sorry this thread for upcoming movies didnt mean to derail... See the leaked pics from the set of Star Wars VIII? Kinda "meh"...

dunno why, but probably cuz cube and dre were heavy involved in the production, where as eazy's dead and MC ren was just kinda ignored. It's been a while since I watched it, I cant remember if they touched on Dre's violent past towards women either

as soon as I saw "from the makers of Sharknado" it pretty much told me all I needed to know. throw in 90's boy bands and its a syfy original movie. I might take a pass. If it was the Spice Girls vs zombies, I might be willing to watch for the eye candy

There is for sure a connection. But it is also a stand alone film.

Ive heard them reference 10 cloverfield lane as a distant cousin to cloverfield, but that they would like to connect them both in a 3rd installment. thats about all i heard and it was directly from Abrams

It's got good reviews. Connection without spoiling? Umm...let's say it's in an alternate universe.

This is just the best....anybody have a cartoon of some dinner buns drawing pistols at 10 paces....?

You don't think Lapo is all that adaptable, so your solution is to make him adapt to players he didn't choose for his offense?

Star Trek the Undiscovered Wrath of Kahn was just so lazy. I enjoyed it in the theatre cause I'm a sucker for call backs and references but after some time to reflect on the movie it's really a mash up of Wrath of Kahn and the Undiscovered Country filled with enormous plot holes and a story that really doesn't make much sense. I was excited about the idea of rebooting the universe a bit to avoid having to stick to some of the cluttered canon but it's like they just tried way to hard to give us some fan service rather than caring about making a movie that made sense. I actually liked most of the actors they got for the cast as well. I think they could all channel the original characters well enough, the thing just got so far off the rails it was more of a parody than anything.

Jets just need to keep up the suck....landing Matthews won't even require a "miracle" if we have a 10% shot.

...any wiping with something that gross should be done strictly in the bathroom....

Somebody needs to tell Stanley that rag is to be used strictly for cleaning his cleats.

That's crazy to think a coach would want a say in the players he's going to coach.

Gina would be my pick for a lot of things...

The rights issue is confusing. The way I understand it, Paramount owns the rights to the films. CBS owns the TV rights and original trademarks that the films are derived from. Paramount was basically told to make a movie or lose the rights which is why they ended up making Star Trek in 2009. But they have to license the trademarks from CBS. The reason they went with a "new" universe was Bad Robot owns the rights to derivatives. Their plan was, if successful, they would create all new Star Trek licensing deriving from the new Universe and Bad Robot would control this creatively and financially. One of the reasons speculated for JJ Abrams jumping to Star Wars was he fought with CBS before STID came out, over merchandising. Bad Robot wanted CBS to stop merchandising original TOS Trek as it was confusing the market. TOS merch was still a big seller, more so than the new stuff and they refused. Bad Robot also wanted to make an animated series based on their "universe" and a TV series. The political in fighting drove JJ nuts. Bob Orci recently confirmed on another forum that he tried really hard to "unite" the two sides of Trek (Paramount movie/CBS Television) but didnt have the stroke to make it work. The speculation concerning the new TV series being set in the "Prime" universe and possibly "around" the time of TOS is because that era is still a big money maker for CBS and they want to take advantage of it. CBS couldnt launch the TV series in 2016 to take advantage of Trek's 50th anniversary because of a deal with Paramount to wait six months after release of their third film to do so. If the series took place in the alternate universe, it would basically mean CBS licensing Star Trek to Paramount and Paramount licensing their derivatives back to CBS. Too many cooks in the kitchen. However, it is interesting that one of the Bad Robot writers, Alex Kurtzman is the Exec Producer of the series, but also interesting that his former partner Orci, who was the self-processed Trek expert/lover, was not invited by his buddy to take part. There has been rumors that Bad Robot was under investigation for how they spent money and Paramount wouldnt continue with them after their three-film Trek deal. Im not sure of those details because I think Paramount has other deals with Bad Robot. But it seems the only connection between Bad Robot and Trek now is that JJ is still a producer, even though Justin Lin is the guy in charge. Expectations are, unless Beyond is a surprising hit, that Paramount might not be making a 4th movie. They have Pine and Quinto under contract for a fourth film as part of a deal where those two wanted raises to make Beyond or they wouldnt come back. Bob Orci submitted two different stories for Beyond before he was fired as Director and writer. He still holds a producer credit but doesnt really have that power on the film. Rumors are Paramount thought his stories were "too Treky" and one of them might have been too close to a previous Phase II story Planet of the Titans, creating trademark issues. Bob's stories included Nimoy and Shatner. In fact, my theory (although Bob has sort of denied this) is that when it was leaked last year that Shatner was in the story, that it was Bob who leaked it (or had it leaked). It was around the time Paramount was rejecting Bob's stories. The leak created a ton of positive press and the idea is that Paramount would have caved to public demand/interest in William Shatner returning and thus, save Bob's job. It didnt work. Although Paramount was foolish, in my mind, to reject Shatner. But it seems Paramount has some sort of issue with Shatner. Im hoping the film rights end up back under one company, namely CBS, who has done a really good job with Trek in recent years. Their work restoring the TV shows (TOS & TNG)_ were way better than Paramount's work on restoring the films. Star Trek is tailor made for a Cinematic Universe (which Bad Robot realised) but it cant work with two companies fighting over the direction.

You got some inside info???

they need fan input in there, Id offer this rule change; When the blindfolded guy finally finds his way to the salisbury house sign, everyone gets a free cheese nip, not just him.

Football without a doubt has to be the most difficult and complex game to officiate. North or South of the border. American refs were no better at officiating during the U.S. Expansion. Perhaps there should be more emphasis on grooming former players from the CFL or CIS as officials. They at least have a better inherent understanding of the complexity and nuances.

Interesting, I had no idea. That changes things.

What he said.^ For one, stop adding rules every off-season. Hand in hand with that, focus on the basics. I honestly don't understand what Glen Johnson's job is. To come up with random ideas that he can put out there every off-season to remind everyone that he still exists and works for the CFL? Product has suffered under him.

I've actually always liked this jersey... not sure how it'll look with blue, but I think a few tweaks will help...

Thread is locked thanks to Brandon and TUP.
