he did list "Planet Krypton" as his place of birth.

Looking like a repeat of 1998 and 1999 again. Calgary wins the first match, Hamilton wins the second. Hamilton is looking pretty dominant right now.

I agree, less poles, more Ukrainians!

Yeah, he shouldn't be playing because some here want to argue for the sake of arguing. Kind of like complaining because the Bombers wait until the actual cut-down deadline to announce their cuts.

I saw one guy doing that. And he was extremely funny doing it. Try dumping the eeyore routine once in awhile and try laughing at situations instead of crapping on others who do. You might live longer.

all right, but quite frankly you don't have to be a whiny child about my response either. Your comments mimicked a lot of idiots I see on other forums I post on, who constantly immediately jump on the "ban everything" bandwagon as soon as a few individuals deem something offensive, and the group-think and pressure and guilt being exerted are extreme. I see now you aren't one of those idiots, so I apologize. One of the dumbest "1984" like events took place when a bunch of female celebrities wanted to ban the word "bossy". Just so stupid. And I don't think Mike Bossy liked it too much either. It wasn't received well, thankfully. What scared me about this campaign though was that people somehow think they can just start banning words in our society, because they decide that they are bad. That's not how a free society works, and it's an extremely slippery slope. http://nymag.com/thecut/2014/03/problem-with-the-ban-bossy-campaign.html

I haven't seen the Montreal depth chart yet.

^^^^^^^^^ i own a competing warehouse and I want that guy's warehouse to fail. I think that he should sit out the next five weeks and the warehouse to close down "just in case" he has Lupus, even if the qualified doctors say that he doesn't.

Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming Can confirm #Bombers rookie safety Demetrius Wright was released yesterday. Wright started Week 1 in Sask for the then-injured Moe Leggett.

Well let's hope that Richie Hall has studied the game film and has found a way to de-Cato that Montreal offense. That was quite the offensive show he put on.

To me, "this issue" isn't just about the Confederate flag. It's about the whole concept that because a flag/symbol is basically overnight declared offensive, by someone, that all existence of it suddenly must be wiped out. I don't agree with that. That's just "1984" stuff to me. It's the Tom Sawyer/Huck Finn debate all over again. Do you ban those books because they contain the N word, or do you want people, especially children, to read them, so that they can see how far we've come as a society since those times in terms of treatment of minorities. Especially since the essence of those books is to show how ignorant and stupid the attitudes towards black people were in that era.

Sigh. No. That's not what I am suggesting. I said I don't give a crap about that. What I am suggesting is that people not over-react and just leap on board every single stupid suggestion that suddenly everything is "bad" and must be banned, purely to show how enlightened they are. Banning Dukes is an example of such over-reaction.

Well, aren't we enlightened, so enlightened that you willingly jump on the Groupthink bandwagon whenever it's decided, somewhere, by someone, that something is offensive. I would hope others aren't just as willing to unquestioningly abandon everything they have seen and heard and believed growing up because someone tells us it is suddenly "bad". Always question authority, especially the authority of people telling you how you should think. Your comment about how we as a society need to learn to change things instead of clinging to traditions seems to be right out of Animal Farm. I agree with TUP that I don't really care about the Confederate flag or what it means to Southerners. I am from Winnipeg, so until someone starts telling me the Bison on our flag is some kind of racist symbol it really doesn't matter to me. What I don't get is the hysterical over-reaction including banning shows like the Dukes of Hazzard from TV, because someone might see the Confederate flag on the General Lee for 4.5 seconds per show. Who cares. It's ridiculous. That's just throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Dukes was a favorite show of an entire generation. I still remember that show being the highlight of my TV week (and that just goes to show what dreck was on in that era). The Dukes taught good morals, and right from wrong. Boss Hogg was the greedy bad guy, and the Dukes always out-smarted him, and made sure justice was served, despite the corrupt and crooked cops they had to deal with. We were taught greed was bad, and good always triumphs over evil. It's not like Uncle Jesse and Roscoe sat around the kitchen table dropping N-bombs and telling racist jokes. Far from it. Here's how I sum up political correctness: Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and promoted by mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of fecal matter by the clean end.

The thing I hate about statements like the ones you're making, is you make it seem like they WANT to lose. Like they aren't trying as hard as they can to win, and doing everything they can to win. You don't think these guys are desperate to win?? What more can they do than everything possible...?? If that's what we get when they're trying their best, we're in trouble. You could see we were done in the 2nd quarter. And in pro sports, 'doing your best' isn't goof enough. This isn't kindergarten http://youtu.be/w3UQwyKrTtI

If someone is willing to pay that for Ladd, they can have him. Yikes.

Now Hercules is mad: Christian actor Kevin Sorbo took to Facebook to express his anger with classic television show recycler TV Land after they pulled the “Dukes of Hazzard” off the air following the Charleston church shootings that claimed nine lives. At issue was the Confederate flag painted on the roof of the iconic “General Lee” Dodge Charger driven by the Dukes in the good ol’ boys car chase show. Sorbo — whose claim to television fame was a brief stint as TV’s Hercules in Hercules: The Legendary Journeys — blamed the pulling of the show on the “PC crowd” calling them “nuts and insane.” “Hey PC crowd! You guys are nuts! Insane! Crazy! Banning The Dukes of Hazard? Really? The Confederate Flag on the car? When does this stop?” Sorbo wrote. “Then get rid of Hogan’s Hero’s, The Jeffersons, All in the Family, etc. The list goes on. Chocolate is racist then. So are marshmallow’s. I am offended by everything should be the Lefts slogan.” Sorbo continued, “By the way, we should ban the American Flag. It represents the pillage of Native Americans. Also Washington, DC??? What. George Washington owned slaves! So we need to change the name there, too.” The pulling of the show also drew the ire of former Dukes star Jon Schneider who admittedly stands to lose income in the form of royalties due to the cancellation. Schneider — who played “Bo Duke” — told The Hollywood Reporter he was angry the actions of Charleston shooter Dylann Roof reflected poorly on the show in which he once starred. “I am saddened that one angry and misguided individual can cause one of the most beloved television shows in the history of the medium to suddenly be seen in this light,” Schneider said. “Are people who grew up watching the show now suddenly racists? Will they have to go through a detox and a 12-step program to kick their Dukes habit? ‘Hi … My name is John. I’m a Dukesoholic.’”

Best hair in the league, now that Richards has lost his locks.

Now Dukes of Hazzard is banned apparently on the late night old show replay channels. WTF? Boys in their teen and even pre-teen years truly should not be deprived of Daisy Duke, that's just not fair.

That was the game where the clock ran out when Brink was trying to score a TD from the one, several times, right?

I still remember the still photo of Alex Brink being hit in the chin by a Montreal helmet and being sent flying, while Murray Clarke just watches impassively and makes no move to throw a flag.

They got the quote wrong - they forgot to add an "s" after "win".

man, what we could do with the defence if we had five National hogs.

ok well....there you go. It would have sucked if we had lost the game by 1 point, and that missed call had been the difference. As it stands, it didn't affect the eventual outcome so I'm not as angry.
