  1. It's not racist. It's copyright. What about Simon & Garfunkel? Two white dudes. Garfunkel didn't write one song. Paul Simon wrote all of them. And he was paid for it. Simon sold his book of songs to Sony Music for half a billion dollars while Garfunkel got nothing. And Simon wouldn't pay him a penny. The Eagles. Four white dudes. Guitarist Don Felder wanted all monies split evenly. Don Henley & Glenn Frey said **** that. After lots of srguing & legal wrangling, Felder was tossed out of the band on his ass. He never received writing royalties.
  2. Yes, they did. But she didn't collaborate on any of them. Bacharach co wrote all his songs with Hal David. They were a team. All their songs were copyrighted with just their names. Warwick had no writing credits. They picked her to sing their songs. She would have had to audition along with other singers. Warwick was a huge talent as a singer but not as a writer. Sort of why Paul Simon sold his book of songs including any S & G for half a billion dollars to Sony Music in 2021 & Art Garfunkel got nothing. The real money is in the writing of the songs but not the singing. Although Warwick was well paid through her career.
  3. Yeah, Stove, Christ, these guys are out of here by third week of November. Like suck it up for a playoff game. Not impressed. The problem is, Evans is one hit away from starting & we don't need the Diva Show & headgames that go with it. I'd take Fajardo over Evans in a heartbeat.
  4. Burt Bacharach MADE Dionne Warwick. Every one of her hits in the 60's & 70's were his songs. She'd have been another struggling singer without him. Do You know The Way To San Jose? Walk On By I Say A Little Prayer You'll Never Get To Heaven Let Me Go To Him I'll Never Fall In Love Again Alfie Don't Go Breaking My Heart This Girl's In Love With You Trains, Boats & Planes Message To Michael Reach Out For Me Promises, Promises Just ridiculous.....
  5. They thought they were gonna clean up in the West with that weenie Rourke. Now, they're signing Dominique Davis as Adams backup. We had one but then he didn't like the cold. Wah, wah, wah. Dane Evans is totally ****** .
  6. Last year TSN raved about the Lions receiving corps. Yeah, they were really good with Kid Canada (snicker, snicker Glenn Suitor) slinging that rock but our receivers are better than theirs. Zach is going to have a field day...
  7. Hey Migs, go shove it. You know what gives you away? There is an actual Stamps fan named Stan Peters but he never trolls here. He used to always post on Riderfans. And a Stamps fan doesn't care about the Riders so why would a Stamps fan ask about Weineke?? Your team signs a soon to be crippled qb with your putrid OL & a 500 yard receiver so now you're trolling here? Where's the parade route? We all know the Riders have won so many Grey Cups in February.
  8. My sister & brother in law moved to Regina in the mid 70's for 3 years. He was a young civil engineer at the time in the Winnipeg HO & his boss sent him to their office there to run the place. It was actually quite a busy office so it was a great opportunity for him still in his late 20's at the time. He then transferred to Edmonton & finally Vancouver. I was still a teenager so I'd go with my parents to visit them two or 3 times a year. You have no idea what that place was like before they built a water treatment plant. The sinks had 4 faucets, Warm, cold & hard & soft water. I can't remember if the hard water was for drinking & the soft for washing, especially clothes. The damned drinking water smelled. It had salt in it & was nasty, nasty, nasty. I'd always get an upset stomach when I visited as I'd usually drink the wrong water as it was chemically treated. Bleh. Life is much better for people there today. That water treatment plant makes living there almost easy.
  9. He was tweeting zingers yesterday. First he deleted his tweet about not liking the City of Regina but the people are nice, He also tweeted about selling his rental property he owned there but gave advice to landlords to never rent a house to cat owners as he had to clean up cat pee & poop & then the place is too windy & cold.
  10. This league is run by a bunch of ass clowns. How can you be surprised?
  11. He tweeted that he didn't like living in Regina but the people were friendly. Rider fans took exception to the first part of that sentence. LaPo deleted that tweet after there an upswell of negative Rider comments. He then posted another that he didn't like Regina because it's too cold & windy which didn't help.
  12. They need to rename the All Star Weekend, the All Star No Try weekend.
  13. Harris doesn't need receivers or running backs in Saskatchewan. He'll have Dan Clark.
  14. The article says, "With this Harris signing", how can O'Day sign him 8 days before anyone else??
  15. Herb Zurkowsky says the league is broke. Since the pandemic & the lost season in 2020 & the shortened season teams don't have the $$$ to prop up a team. WQhere have you been the last 4 years?
  16. Did anyone see LaPo's tweet today? Rider fans aren't impressed.
  17. Always wrestled in his brother's shadow. No matter what he did, Lanny had nowhere near the popularity of Randy.
  18. Ross started a few games for the RedBlacks. Didn't he suffer an injury while here?
  19. Johnson has never been FIFO. He goes only for the money. Like Muamba.
  20. I deleted the 2nd paragraph as it was just my opinion only. I don't know if Wally was the bad guy or not regarding Lulay. Yeah, the reaction to Jackson was, Step up. It's the playoffs.
  21. My son Tyler who trains qbs in Seattle know Jennings from his time at SFU. He contacted Tyler last year to ask him how he set up his business & got his clients as he wanted to do the same thing where he lives in Ohio. Tyler told me the story is legit. The Lions rushed Jennings back too soon. His shoulder never recovered. Buono did nothing to protect him from further injury & it cost Jennings his career.
