Here are the full details

It has happened all too often this year where the Jets control the play but don't take advantage by actually scoring. Their opponents hang around and hang around until the are able to score and take the lead.

According to Damien Cox he did. Not sure how accurate that is though. This is the first it has ever been said and Lawless has said he never heard of those rumblings.

I still see occasional drops of my session and have to re-login. This one is still on my watch list.

i·ro·ny a state of affairs or an event that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects and is often amusing as a result.

If you are reading this then you've made it over to the new server. It looks like everything migrated correctly and is running. Still a few tweaks and optimizations I need to make, but it shouldn't affect anything. Let me know if you see or experience any issues.

Michigan vs. Michigan State on TSN right now. Half way through the 2nd. Michigan is up 7 - 2. Kyle Connor has 2 goals so far.

www.asmallorange.com who were really good for the first while, but its been declining steadily. Been doing a lot of research since Christmas. The website was down so couldn't do much but plan on where I was going next. They were bought out by a company called EIG in 2010. ASO's CEO stayed on for a while though. Since he has left, they've been declining. Seems EIG has a reputation of buying smaller hosting companies with good reputations and stripping them down over time. They also own BlueHost, HostGator, NetFirms, and 30 - 50 other companies. http://researchasahobby.com/full-list-eig-hosting-companies-brands/ . Big player in the hosting game. They aren't real public about who they own, but from what I've seen they get a fair amount of complaints. Lookup asmallorange VPS outage december 2015 on google and you will find many complaints on the 5 day outage over Christmas. People who actually make their living over their websites or make their livelihood managing / re-selling websites for other people had a lot more to complain about then me. Even if they offered re-imbursement for the downtime, which they haven't, it wouldn't make up for lost revenue and reputation. The worst part is I prepaid for a year because it gets you 20% off the cost. Paid up till mid-May, so walking away from 4 months of paid hosting time. No choice though. Can't keep dealing with these glitches.

Arctic Ice takes a look at the Jets prospects that are currently in the NCAA. http://www.arcticicehockey.com/2016/1/8/10727542/jets-ncaa-prospect-update A couple of highlights, but I encourage you to give the whole article a read.

Last evening the website was down again. Apparently we had another hiccup with the hosting provider at the same time as the site was rebuilding its cache which corrupted it. I've been prepping the site on a new host and will be migrating over to it tonight. Getting real tired of these outages. Once the site is down and migrated, it may take up to 24 hours (it will likely be a lot less) for the internet to update itself and point to the new server.

If you are looking strictly as points... Tyson Barrie (28 points) vs. Buff 23 points) Then you take Wheeler (40 points) over Duchene (34 points)

Maybe Philly is clearing space to trade for Buff.

All the off field promotions, game day experience, etc, all fall to him to oversee. Part of his job is also to hire the right people to improve the team. As CEO, he does the hiring and firing of the GM. So if the GM is doing a bad job, he made a poor hiring choice. Typically A CEO (and a GM) will get a couple of cracks at hiring the right person if things don't turn out right away unless they are doing an absolute awful job in other areas as well, Walters was his first hire. If next season is a disaster, O'Shea will go for sure. Then Wade has to decide if Walters gets a 2nd chance at hiring a head coach. If Walters is also fired, I believe Wade will get at least another shot at hiring a new GM. If the Bombers are a non play-off team next year with a sub .500 record and Wade decides to keep Walters, it will be interesting to see what the board will do.

What is interesting is of the top six you have here (Ray and Henry are on the wrong side of 30 and 40), their ages are Jennings (23), Mitchell (25), Collaros (27), Willy (29) , Harris (29), Reilly (30),

Depends which loan you are talking about. BBB Inc is basically made up of the Bombers, the City, the Province, and the University. The $4.5M per year that the Bombers have to pay will cover $85M (and the interest) of the original loan to build IGF. That was the deal and that is what the club is on the hook for. The extra interest because the club is only making partial payments for the first 3 years while they payoff the CIBC loan, the additional $40M loan to "fix" IGF (guaranteed by the province) and the remaining money borrowed to build IGF stays with BBB Inc. BBB Inc is to pay for the other half of the stadium and the extra costs accrued through a combination of government funding (provincial and city), the sale and development of the old stadium location and the property and sales tax from the businesses developed on the area over the next 40 years. They will also realize any monies recovered through the lawsuit on the stadium since they fronted the money to fix it. The other half that BBB Inc is on the hook for isn't going so well right now. With Target vacating their building and little to no other development in the area, additional interest accruing on that side of things because of the Bombers deferring payments due to the CIBC loan, and the addition $40M loan they had to take out. So will the Bombers be able to meet their debt requirements? My guess is they probably will. Will the other half be recovered as per the original plan? Questionable at this point but it was always going to be paid for by the government anyway.

This was in a FP article I believe, but it is a little misleading. This is the cost if you include all payments and interest over the 45 years of the mortgage payments. When people say how much they paid for a house, it is usually the principle they talk about, not how much interest they will have paid by the end of it But welcome to financing and interest. Also that $167M in interest charges is accrued over time, so when they are still paying it off in 20, 30, and 40 years time, their mortgage payment remains constant but the $4.5M they are paying a year now won't seem so bad with inflation of their revenues over time. It is not $400M in present value of money.
