  1. Problem is it's still a Lapo offense which means plenty of punts and field goals so yeah, Medlock is going to be the guy doing most of our scoring still.
  2. I say the OL made the biggest difference when Bond went in, but it was less about Bond himself and nore about removing the weakest link and making it stronger across the board. They have progressed though since then and we saw them do very well without Bond at the end of last year so I ain't worried. Some good american tackles on each end and then we should have the required Canadians inside now ater drafting and developing the position Walters entire time here.
  3. yeah you're right
  4. but Blade 3 gave us Ryan Reynolds sass mouthing Triple H, can it really be THAT awful?
  5. The biggest thing with the Riders is the cutting of guys they signed recently to big deals to me should make guys questions whether they even want to go there. A lot of players like security and don't like to be dicked around.
  6. I say that if we want to sign Muamba we have the trump card, where else is a better place to stick it to Jones than here? Can you imagine if all the Rider NI depth from last year is here playing well as the Bombers see post season success while the Riders do their usual craptacular season? The very thought of it warms my heart.
  7. I dunno who won, but I know who lost, the Riders.
  8. easy to forgive Muamba when it's a **** you to the Riders.
  9. But this isn't that black and white, guy was still getting young girls drunk looking for sex. Like I said, creepy. Nothing illegal, but makes him come across as a creep.
  10. no, a lot of times it starts at the party level. Really nothing the guy has done is criminal, but he still looks like a creep, and is a creep really the face you want to have going into a general election? The party was well within their rights to tell the guy to step down because it hurt their chances of winning an election. There is a difference between guilt and innocence, but for public servants like politicians the appearances do matter like it or not.
  11. Somewhere along the way hollywood types started to think that subverting expectations alone made movies great. Sorry but that's not the case. it still have to be executed well.
  12. Gotta listen to him, he is Julius Caesar after all
  13. No it really doesn't, the humor fell flat and there was nothing charming about it. That was one of the biggest gripes I had with the movie, it tried so hard to add humor and it just fell flat.
  14. but the court of public opinion is always what determines a politicians career....
  15. if it were me you'd have to offer a hell of a lot more. playoff bonuses still a thing in the CFL? can easily make a lower offer on a good team worth more than a higher offer on a tire fire team.
  16. but they're not amateurs, they're all playing professional hockey in europe and a bunch of them are NHL washouts.... we sent a bunch of CHL players then I'd have interest. The whole men's tournament to me is tainted simply because of the blatant money grubbing by the NHL, IOC and IIHF.
  17. The Watchmen was a pretty faithful adaptation, but I dunno that it's quality is as high as all that... Good adaptation of the source material but it's still a pretty dry movie. I guess if you're a fan of the graphic novel then yes it will be rated highly but if you're not it's going to be seen as just a boring as **** movie. Had I not read the graphic novel I don't think I would have appreciated that movie at all.
  18. No that's not what I'm saying, I clearly said it, **** all those organizations for being so money hungry that they couldn't get the best into the Olympics despite everyone wanting them there. It's basically a glorified Spengler Cup at this point.
  19. Hung over from all the celebrations after yesterday no doubt.
  20. You mean accountability like losing your spot on the team? Just because you want guys raked over the coals publicly and O'Shea doesn't do that does not mean there is no accountability.
  21. No... Cap 1 was ok but not the greatest. I think it's rating gets inflated these days because of the quality of the subsequent captain America movies.
  22. Someone bought a Heath jersey last year didn't they?
  23. 130k for a starter seems pretty reasonable... or are you still salty that Heath priced himself off the team?
  24. I don't begrudge players looking to get the most money they can, but at the same time, sometimes it's better to just not expect too much and take the good deal in the good situation. Otherwise you could end up like Dennis over in gapperland where your big contract gets ripped up when you don't earn it.
