Where does that rank in terms of the WWE talent? How does he boost that? In merch sales? I'm not sure how the WWE differs compared to the independent circuit. Will he have to do X number of house shows? Live TV? Etc. Is he required to do other promos/events? What about sponsorships or is that tightly controlled by the WWE?

You don't have to tell me about New Mexico, I've watched Anthony Bourdain's Parts Unknown.

I think Belichick gets $7.5M and Payton, who was the highest, is at $8M, unless that's outdated information?

Just show them your indoor plumbing. They'll get confused and scared and leave on their own.

You should build a wall or something to keep out Rider fans.

Just to interject, this is a private member bill that has had first reading. Some local "media" were reporting this like it had passed the committee work, 2nd and 3rd reading, received Royal Assent and was proclaimed. We're very far from this being passed.

If you watch anything on Ego Jones, you'll know he scraped his way up from a nothing high school assistant's assistant football coach. He LOVES going home and strutting like a peacock. If he gets a chance to coach a Division I football team or become a DC of an NFL team, he's jumping. Yes, he loves being a big fish in a small pond but he'll equally love all the adoration he would get as a College HC or NFL Coordinator.

You don't think he would take a DC job? I do.

Lance Storm. Taz, the Human Suplex Machine. Justin Credible - I'm not just the coolest, I'm not just the best, I'm Justin Credible. Dudley Boyz. Sandman. Tommy Dreamer. Sabu. Just to name a few more. Take away the tables and the barbed wire and they could all perform incredibly well. They were really neutered when they moved to WWE, which was a shame.

We need librarians in our lives. Am I right, @iHeart?

Merry Christmas, Rich! And to everyone who puts their time and energy into keeping MBB up and moderated! Thank-you! Merry Christmas to everyone who contributes or lurks!

No, I only ever saw him. I don't think he hooked up with her until much later when he was in Florida. He was always on his way to or from the Garage when he came in.

Fun fact. I used to work at a gas station at Main and Terminal in Downtown Vancouver (circa 1996-97). Bure would stop by every so often and buy smokes. Camels were his brand. Maybe that's not so fun but it is a fact! Jim Hughson did the radio play-by-play for the Canucks back then. I still like Hughson to this day.

That would be interesting. You could still run a weekly show. Eventually, you would build up a back catalogue. I wonder if you can stream something live through the Netflix network? For a live show (ala PPV)?

And he just said he was taking time-off from football to focus on mental health issues. Not that he's going to be allowed to play any time soon, anyhow.

They can save that for January. Fact is, right now, the GOP controls all three levels of government. This is owned entirely by the GOP and their leadership.

Did I just hear that the Riders have added Josh Gordon to their neg list? EDIT: I did! Roughriders place WR Gordon on neg. list

I don't think we get it up here. It's not available on Bell/MTS as a choice. There is some Canadian (Winnipeg) connection though: Fall 2012, Canadian Media Giant, Leonard Asper, joined the Pursuit management team bringing capital and vast knowledge in distribution/marketing, that has created brand awareness for the network inside the television industry and Wall Street.

The what Channel? EDIT: It's a hunting channel. https://pursuitchannel.com/ I've never heard of it but I don't hunt.

Apparently, he's ditched the Mar A Lago plans. He's going to be super cranky when he can't golf.

She wasn't poor then.

Wouldn't that be something? A 90210 reunion because Tori is desperate for money. And not too ironically, the person who would benefit most would be her stepmom, who gave Tori nothing after her father passed away.

Everyone gets three as of last season. 21 Weeks. (And, welcome!)

Yeah, but will they still want a franchise after seeing those two teams play?

This is an interesting story... Der Spiegel reporter Claas Relotius sacked over 'invented' stories German news magazine Der Spiegel has sacked an award-winning staff writer after accusing him of inventing details and quotes in numerous stories. Claas Relotius "falsified articles on a grand scale and even invented characters", Der Spiegel said. About: Der Spiegel is a German weekly news magazine published in Hamburg. With a weekly circulation of 840,000 copies, it is the largest such publication in Europe. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Der_Spiegel Just as interesting, is this rebuttal to one of Relotius' articles about a small town in Minnesota: Der Spiegel journalist messed with the wrong small town Read this take down of the "journalists" article. Incredible. It's a worthwhile read.
