No, you can. I agree with the others - he was Buck Pierce.

Iso, why don't you tell us who Buck Pierce was 10 years ago then.

The allegations in his statement of claim are absolutely laughable.

I've heard fans say they want their team to lose for whatever reason but once the game starts they are cheering when their team makes a good play, a big hit or scores and they have been happy with the win. I think you are in a small minority if you are actually cheering for the opposition during a game.

He's going to have to have one heck of a raise to live in Vancouver full time. He'll likely want to live closer to Surrey than Vancouver since that's where the Lions' practice facilities are although even there wouldn't be cheap.

According to the link posted by comedygeek, French Canadians use his actually surname of Montferrand - Mufferaw was originally a spelling used by people who couldn't spell the name properly. Or maybe they had a problem with a real folk hero being used as a mascot.

Maybe not calling him a coach is just some semantics to solve the NFL pension issue.

The Ducks have plenty to play for - it's called not having to play the Kings in the first round.

As dominating as the Jets were in the first 2 periods, the Ducks dominated them in the 3rd as the shot totals for each period showed.

Delete.

That's for sure. Ducks outshot the Jets 24-6 in the 3rd period.

I disagree. There have been a lot of games where Pavs has been the only reason the Jets won or at the very least were still in it.

Everyone has a bad game once in a while and the team wasn't exactly playing inspired hockey to start the game. I wouldn't blame him on the second goal - having a stick thrown in your face isn't exactly helpful when your trying to stop the puck.

That's interesting. Morreale was elected less than 2 years ago. I guess the talk of dissension in the ranks was true for him to be replaced at this time.

Maybe he's thinking of retiring.

Double post.

What about the NFL interest?

The Lions got $2.7 million from the BC government for the 2014 GC. The Riders got $6 million from the SK government for the 2013 GC. I don't have a problem with the MB government providing $4 million for the 2015 GC. It's a great investment.

Double post. Oops.

MLSE is a license to print money. If they could have gone it alone they would have. They don't have the money to buy a team AND finance a stadium.

The Bombers didn't hire the firm who designed the stadium - Creswin/Asper did. Part of the payoff Creswin/Asper received when they were removed from the project was to buy the plans from him. And a poor decision that was!You would have rather waited at least another year to get construction started? Other than the stadium in Hamilton, what other stadium has the architect for the Riders stadium designed?The press box at IGF is a minor fix compared to what had to be done at MTS Centre.

I'm not sure how this can work without adding a lot more cameras to the mix. There are times when the camera angle can't pick up the interference because the players' backs are to the camera and there are times when the interference happens before the cameras pick up the play. Seems to me there will be a lot of announcements that the replay was inconclusive.

Rogers couldn't afford the $1.7 billion price tag to buy MLSE without a partner so what makes you think they could come up with that kind of money to build a stadium.
