  1. Writing Ricky Ray off in his first game in ages is just wrong.
  2. It would be a lot shorter thread to ask what they won't complain about.
  3. Then why ask if he had a fight with Dickenson? And how is it strange that an unemployed coach takes a new job?
  4. He wasn't with Calgary last season. This thread was started in January 2015. Missick was with the Riders last season.
  5. You look at the "facts" and interpret them one way, Iso looks at them and interprets them differently. The fact is being acquitted doesn't mean he didn't do it. The only people who know the truth now are the children who visited Neverland Ranch. For the rest of us, it's just opinion.
  6. Yet another WTH? moment from the Trump campaign... http://www.esquire.com/news-politics/news/a46049/trump-campaign-new-hampshire-house/
  7. From Global News: http://globalnews.ca/news/2777216/michael-jackson-had-stockpile-of-pornography-erotic-art-report/ Here is the link to the documents obtained by RadarOnline (WARNING: GRAPHIC): http://radaronline.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/mj-docs.pdf
  8. I don't think you'll be surprised by this article from the LA Times, Iso. http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-michael-jackson-porn-neverland-20160621-snap-story.html It looks like RadarOnline has removed some of the pictures.
  9. Oh puleeze. Way to make assumptions. He was going to a late rehearsal - not coming home from a party or something. And of course the manufacturer can't be at fault when they have recalling that year and model for it doing exactly what happened to Anton Yelchin.
  10. You guys might want to be more specific. There are a number of players named Harris on the rosters of various teams. You can't pick them all.
  11. The rest of the article is at this link: http://www.reuters.com/article/us-people-yelchin-idUSKCN0Z61TB?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=Social
  12. Andrew Harris
  13. Here's an excerpt from a Toronto Star article. I'll add a link when I'm not on my phone.
  14. Except players on the 6 game IR can't practice for the first 4 weeks.
  15. PC MP from BC - Bob Zimmer.
  16. I don't know how you interpreted what I said to mean that. Every religion has its share of fundamentalist nut cases. The problem is judging an entire religion based on those nut cases. Since you only quoted a small part of my post I guess that means you don't have any non-Trump source for your claim about the shooter yelling Allahu Akbar.
  17. There have been no substantiated reports that the shooter yelled that while shooting. Other than Donald Trump (and the author whose tweet he copied), do you have any citation for that? There are reports coming out that the shooter's motives may not have been religious. ABC New has reported he was a patron of gay clubs for years. There are numerous reports that he was mentally unstable. http://abcnews.go.com/US/witnesses-orlando-shooter-regular-gay-clubs/story?id=39839464 The US media doesn't initially identify white shooters as being Christian nor do they use the word terrorism when talking about mass shootings by white males. And I wasn't saying the shootings done by white men were for religious reason. I can't provide stats for religion since the US media doesn't include that information but considering a recent ABC News poll found that 83% of Americans identify themselves as being Christian it would be statistically improbable for most of the shooters to be non-Christian. I will keep looking to see if I can find something however.
  18. Trump's at it again. The Washington Post is the most recent organization to have their press credentials revoked by Trump. Here are others who have also had theirs revoked: Whole story from the Washington Post here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/trump-revokes-post-press-credentials-calling-the-paper-dishonest-and-phony/2016/06/13/f9a61a72-31aa-11e6-95c0-2a6873031302_story.html?tid=sm_fb
  19. And once again says something as fact when there is no proof (just like his claim of Muslims dancing on the rooftops in NJ after 9/11). Purposely tries to connect the story of a man arrested in LA with the Orlando shootings even though the man arrested in Santa Barbara was a white, non-Muslim man from Indiana.
  20. And once again Trump finds a way to make it about him:
  21. And yet this shooter did. According to the ATF, he made two legal gun purchases within a week before the attack. That doesn't sound like there was much planning involved. As well, terrorist organizations have been known to take credit for attacks when they actually had nothing to do with them. The shooter mentioned ISIS in his 911 call but there has been no evidence so far showing that he was ever a member of a terrorist organization. In Santa Barbara, police arrested a man from Indiana after receiving a report about a prowler. When they found his car he had what they described as an arsenal of weapons including three assault rifles, high capacity magazines, ammunition, and a 5 gallon bucket with chemicals to make a bomb. He had come to LA to go to the West Hollywood pride parade. Luckily he was caught before he could use those weapons. When a Muslim American goes on a shooting spree it is immediately reported to be a terrorist attack connected to radical Islam. When a white Christian male goes on a shooting spree (which happens with a much, much greater frequency in the US) the word "terrorism" almost never is mentioned. What the Orlando shooter did was absolutely despicable and, frankly, I'm glad he's dead. I just hope innocent Muslims won't have to pay for what this guy did.
  22. I was at a game in Calgary that had Joe Pop kicking. The wind was so strong that on one FG attempt the ball went backwards.
  23. LOL that a confetti cannon caused the power outage. Only in Saskatchewan.
  24. One of the greatest to ever play any sport. RIP
  25. Actually Herb Zurkowsky's has a LOT more credibility on the subject of what happened with Thorpe than you will ever have. I think you're confusing Thorpe with Steinauer who was interviewed for the HC position. The Ticats initially didn't want to grant permission for the Esks to talk to him but then later granted it. There are no reports of Thorpe being a candidate for the HC job.
