    UFC

    GSP is reporting he is a FA and no longer under contract with the UFC. Dont really want to see him fighting in roidzin or bellaturd.
  2. cant knock the talent he has. Hes been very good with half the 2nd/3rd string qbs to come through the league in the last couple years. hes young hes big he has all the tools. Itll be very interesting to follow. Id love to have his talent here, his nut case attitude on the other hand not soo much. I could see him going to sask, edm or but mainly TO under new management in the off season.
  3. Or notre dame used to be in the ncaa. The boys were atleast a dynasty though. Dynasty teams allways get out of town bandwagoners. like the miami heat. I think its all hogwash. Even more in the US, where you have die hard HS football fans and college fans etc.
  4. It will be interesting to see if duron carter turns into less of a cancer on a better team next year. I dont think the nfl is gonna come sniffing with all his problems this year.
  5. state side ive run into fans of all the western teams, not much from the east. Down there i normally see a mass blanketing of local teams hs and college. I feel like ive seen more oregon ducks ohio state and florida gator gear then cfl gear in total including up here. XD But any single persons perspective is going to be a fairly small sample size. Id say in that case though that the riders being the most popular team out side of canada would lead towards what mike said. people moving out of sask. To be canadas team imop you have to be the team the nation backs. The one with a dedicated fan base across the country. Like the jays. Every stop ive made ive met tons and tons of jays fans. Same with the raptors. Those are of course easy though as they are our only teams in mlb/nba. The next closest thing for a league that has multiple canadian teams would be any canadian team on a deep play off run in the NHL. The nature of the cfl in canada is far too culturally en grained in each region to have a national team.

    UFC

    Supposedly official by the end of the week, nunes vs rousey at ufc 207. Having seen soo much emo stuff out of RR since her loss, and seemingly taking refuge in hollywood as the worst actress/actor alive while still training under tardverdyan Im kinda ready for the RR phase to be over. The belt has been passed around with no end since then, but maybe parity would be good. Im more interested in watching cybro butcher till one of the names takes the pay day or watching JJ crush the division below.
  7. Dont agree at all. Having lived across canada ive seen other teams merch in every city, but not more riders then the rest. Save for the RBs for obvious reasons. In fact in BC i saw more argos stuff especially up north then riders. Lots of jays fans out there who dont identify with the south side lions. Lots of seattle gear especially down south.
  8. Idk, the bosox had the ability to rock our starters and get past the strength of the bullpen in a hurry, leaving us strung out in the pen. I dont think the indians have that potential. Bodes well to keep our starters in games late and use the choice arms out of the pen each game. Offensively our line up can mash any staff in baseball.
  9. 6 game is a joke being revokable now. Hard to say how they get him on the roster. If wild isnt good to go I wouldnt mind seeing waggonner get the start. We could rotate him and corney to get burnette on the field some. probably doesnt happen though. Mcduffie if he isnt healthy or flanders other wise. going to be even harder if darvin adams ever gets healthy. TONS of talent at imp wr now.

    UFC

    lol. Football players have the right level and type of athletic ability to make the jump. And the vast majority are in the weak AF heavy weigh range. Wont be following him specifically but wish him luck. Hope its for the love of fighting and not the money though.
  11. yep, good play offs soo far this year. Wouldnt have minded knocking the sox out but shap gets his way instead. This should be a real good series.
  12. I think its a situation of 2 young talented guys who needed a change of scenery getting it. It seems to me to be a pretty good trade for both teams but modesty better for ottawa right now. Man this season has been crazy active for player movement.
  13. thats awesome.
  14. kohlert smith and dressler all missed in very similar fashion for easy tds. Pretty much. If he can keep it up is some what questionable though. Hes had what 4 picks called back on penalties in the last 4 games? Tons of db drops before that. But he does show steady but not flashy improvement. It will be interesting to see but probably not some thing we will know till next year.
  15. yeah people dont realize how old PEDs and various drug use in pro sports is. As long as there has been an edge to be gained people have been doping.
  16. Yeah that was a great, great episode. Its sports wide too, especially in football.
  17. and on odur too xD what a fantastic game and great series as a jays fan!
  18. on track to tie it or break it. Kinda hope he does for the coolness. Hes been amazing, one of our best ever cfl FA pick ups.
  19. yep and that would be the sensible way to do things, but tobacco and alcohol are far too large and important as industry to ever get the boot now. All we will see is the line getting pushed further towards legalizing various drugs. Which is fine by me, let people do that stuff if they want. I wonder if sports leagues will loosen up there own rules then. If the day comes where we see full legalization of weed for instance, will athletes still be un able to do it?
  20. cant pass up that many chances to score majors and expect to win.
  21. he certainly is, especially when hes at his best. How sustainable it is to live off those short passes while missing deep shots remains un seen. Thatd be something to see next year. The problem is, thats still 21 points. And that early pick would have been disastrous. If your going to accept that of nichols, you certainly have to accept that harris whose far better at what he does is a guy whose going to fight for every inch.
  22. yeah nichols had some great protection too. Rolling him out helped some but the OL right now is the best weve had in years. I really hope chung isnt bouncing in the off season >.<
  23. harris hit the ground after the play was whistled dead and had a close drop as he hit the ground, but well after the whistle and you cant give him a nod. But you give nichols 2nd star when he had 3 awful over throws on easy TDs where our wrs were all alone? Plus the first drive pick that was run back to like our 10 yard line called back.
  24. the leos took em too though we combines for like 230 yards of penalties. Which is just gross.
  25. idk about that we took 155 yards in penalties which is beyond crazy. I dont think ive seen that kind of number with out ejections and bruha going down.
