  1. Finch over rated? Not a chance. Dude is a good returner.
  2. You missed the whole thing with Ghostbusters about how if you don't like this movie you are a misogynist? Wonder Woman was a bad movie all around, you like it then you're wrong plain and simple.
  3. So in the interest of discussion, let's talk about the sideshow of mixed doubles curling.... Lawes and Morris absolutely destroyed the competition. What a bloody joke of a sport. Were they hoping that the european teams could compete in that since Canada treats it rightly as an after thought? Lawes and Morris were both so superior as shot makers to anyone else it wasn't even funny. Oh well, more easy medals for Canada I suppose.
  4. Wild has been so injured there is no way he's pulling in the money he was previously. And yes he is a difference maker when healthy. No problems getting him at a lower price for depth and I don't believe for a second that he's going to hinder the teams ability to sign anyone.
  5. Yeah I can't understand where this idea that the Heath-Randle side of the field was a no go zone either... yeah the first few games of the year they didn't see a lot of action but by the end of the year teams were making big plays against all sides of the secondary. Simply put I don't believe Heath is worth as much as he thinks he's worth and we can replace him. Randle was always the far more important guy to bring back.
  6. What's odd about it? if it weren't for the **** quality of previous DC fans and people's desire for a good DC film and the desire for a female lead blockbuster people wouldn't delude themselves into thinking that Wonder Woman was actually good. It was **** and the only praise it got was better than the **** DC has crapped out before. Saw it with chick ghostbusters too, some people tried to make that movie get a better reputation than it deserved because equality! I judge movies on their own merits and even if it's something that's not my cup of tea I can recognize when it's well done, this movie was not well done regardless of all the pressure for it to be better than it was and yeah, Gal Gadot is easy on the eyes but her performance was not as good as the hype she gets.
  7. surely there is more to this thread that attention seekers posting only medals canada has won... don't make this thread as useless as the tv thread
  8. Is the implication here that those guys were crappy players? Cause Johnson was solid and Washington was really ******* good....
  9. I didn't know it was his birthday
  10. Red Skull wasn't the greatest villian, but at least he was present in the movie
  11. What was wrong with the existing free agency thread? Or the around the league thread? Seems like this is just making a post for the sake of making a post.
  12. Yeah I just don't get it, surely if Hurl was a consideration for MLB for the Bombers this year he'd have been signed a long time ago. The fact that he's not signed tells me they're going in a different direction. I think they have a pretty good idea what the ratio is going to look like and linebacker isn't going to be a Canadian position.
  13. is that what you appreciate about her?
  14. IOC is desperate for more winter medals.
  15. That's the problem there.
  16. more so than a villain that doesn't show up until the final fight scene. They tried to make this twist but it fell so flat.
  17. The movie was ****, the only reason it received praise is because people desperately wanted a female led blockbuster to do well and people desperately want DC to start doing well, but I am sorry that movie was pure ****. It was slow and drawn out, it was anti climatic, it wasn't acted terribly well, the villain wasn't interesting in the least, the main character wasn't terribly compelling, the attempted humour was more cringe inducing than funny. I honestly thought Man of Steel and BvsS were more enjoyable movies, and they were terrible. Oh sure it's better than Suicide Squad, but so was my last bowel movement.
  18. Gal Gadot was pretty awful in it as well and the action scenes all looked like something out of a bad video game. The movie could have been half the run time and not missed anything. Yeah it was an objectively bad movie that everyone wanted to like because reasons! I can honestly say I enjoyed Batman vs. superman a lot more than wonder woman and that's not exactly a high bar.
  19. I think between Dressler and Bowman we've filled our quota of older veteran guys.
  20. Yeah the Rider fans over rate their receiving corps a lot I think. Some good players to be sure but I don't know they're as deep as all that and heavily dependant on the health of Roosevelt and the head of Carter. Not gambles that I think are sure winners.
  21. Don't they realize that driving up the price can only be claimed if he actually signs for more than they offered? He told em no not even for more money. That's a **** off. Cause honestly 140k for Bowman is less than I expected he would get from someone. Not my favourite player but the numbers are there and someone is always willing to pay for those numbers.
  22. Umm Leto sucked and the character was awful and no one wanted to watch it? Probably why they cut basically everything he did from that movie. As an aside on the WTF DC? note, I finally got around to watching Wonder Woman and that movie was ******* terrible. Just all kinds of bad.
  23. Price isn't unreasonable for a guy with his resume, telling the Riders that he won't go there even for more money is even better, but god it's still Bowman... Still a guy prone to drops and inconsistency.
  24. never mind that Dom Davis was with Calgary before we signed him anyway.
  25. Probably an agent. Those guys like to promise the moon.
