  1. The CFL B List? Then why do you watch? No one is forcing you. Find another sport you can grumble about salaries while calling the CFL bush. Who needs you? Hey the North American Lacrosse League needs fans & they pay their players peanuts so it's right up your alley. Go follow it. Why does acknowledging that the CFL doesn't have the best football players in the world mean he shouldn't watch it? It's not what Atomic said it's how he said it. Big difference. The CFL is the one league in the ******* world that the players are in the community interacting with fans in all kinds of different ways. Most basically play for the love of the game & he's bitching about salaries? And advocating that owners should get tough with the players to the lpoint of shutting down the season in 2014?? Hell, 3 teams DON'T EVEN HAVE ANY OWNERS as they're community owned.... Nope, I don't take back what I said. I know the NFL has better players but at the same time if you are a true fan you appreciate what you have which is still pretty damned good. I don't see how you can possibly get annoyed with the way I talk to you sometimes and then still think you're justified in talking to Atomic the way you did in this string of quotes. He's not exactly saying anything that's untrue. Nor is he saying anything that should be offending you to the point that you're telling him he shouldn't watch the CFL. To a certain extent, a lot of these guys are replaceable. Some of them aren't, but most are. The owners have a good chance to make the league financially stable and while I definitely think that the players deserve their fair share of the new revenue, it shouldn't be an overwhelming amount. Hey Mike, since you brought this up.... Way to go putting down one of the best & most loyal posters here in KBF on the Vince Li thread. That was real nice. He never deserved that. It was a cheap shot & totally uncalled for. You've done it to me, KBF & others here. And you're doing it more & more. Why?
  2. Robynjt, I'm not offended per se. I am offended that some people treat the life of others with such little value & that we place more importance on the rights of the accused than the rights of the victim & his/her family. I am worried about public safety. That myself, my immediate family, friends & even all of you here who don't agree with my stance, that when you go out in public that it is safe to do so.
  3. I think Goltz sunk himself with his sulking. And according to Walters his contract was too big. His sulking wasn't even really sulking. Burke turned on him like Burke was prone to do and Goltz felt betrayed, I think that's completely fair because the way Burke treated a lot of players was complete and utter bullshit. Goltz got no support from anyone and received almost all of the blame. I'm not saying he would or wouldn't have worked out at qb, but he didn't get a fair shake from Burke and now his career is over (most likely) Yeah, I agree Burke didn't treat Goltz as well as he should have. And as a HC, we all know Burke sucked the Big One. But for Goltz who had just a few starts & played awful in most of them to say to the media he felt betrayed by Burke &/or Bellefeuille, I can understand why they benched him. He was sent a message by the former HC & our present OC to shut up & know his place. I figured Goltz's time was ending back then. I'm surprised they didn't release him last September. I thought it was pretty clear that he was finished here so they should have cut him then like they did today & start giving Levi Brown more reps.
  4. Dead is dead but he ate his victim. And he would have done the same to others. He could do the same again. There is no guarantee he will never stop taking his pills, kill & eat people again. Because there is such a fine line here based on the effects of meds between insanity & sanity of the guy he should never be released into the public again. For safety.
  5. Thank God Goltz is gone. Nuff said.
  6. In Canadian cities, the NHL is a license to print money so having 50,000 in the stands really doesn't mean that much to the bottom line. No doubt the Canucks made a ton of dough, though...
  7. He was so bad in Hamilton. Just how did he get that job in Ottawa, Zontar?
  8. The point is the game was just moved to a larger indoor venue. The outdoor elements are what make the game special & that was taken away. If they can't deal with "accumulated precipitation" then it seems a waste of time. Maybe they should have opened the roof sooner before the snow came. The people running BC Place knew the forecast.
  9. Tough on the players? You have got to be kidding?
  10. Roof closed because of precipitation? I thought the whole point of these games being played is to play in the elements. Look at the snow in Chicago last night & Michigan on NYD? The cold in New York, Edmonton & Calgary. And in Vancouver where bitterly cold is defined as minus 1, they closed the roof at BC Place.

  13. We lose a season we lose the CFL. Simple as that. It's finished. What have the players done to get your nuts all tied up into a knot? These guys are grossly underpaid & a lot of them have long term health problems from injuries they suffered as players after they have retired. The MINIMUM salary for a Canadian player is $46,000. At least last time I heard.That's nothing. These guys deserve to get paid.
  14. I get the nipples part. The title??
  15. I know. I read that. But Martin wasn't unhappy he was gone. He may have kicked Morris out if he hadn't left. I wonder if will Martin keep Nedohin next season?
  16. Willy, Hall & .....?
  17. Morris looked pretty much like a diva in the Brier last year. Martin had enough of him.
  18. Morris is a very good player but not as a skip. he is impatient, Has a temper & isn't the easiest guy to get along with when his team isn't playing well. if they're something like 2-3 out of the gates, he'll implode. Kevin Coe is a very good curler. Already won the Brier. He'll be tough as will Stoughton. I thought Brad Jacobs got hot at the right time last year when he won the Brier & really wasn't that strong a team. Wow, was I wrong. If he was in this year's Brier, he'd win it no doubt. Too bad the Men don't have Team Canada like the Women..
  19. What exactly does the title of this thread mean exactly. Does it have some kind of deep religious meaning?
  20. I see I'm not the only one. I just don't like him. I hope his team gets its ass kicked every game.
  21. Oooh..the very thought makes my nipples hard. Ultimate hard nipple thought albeit hockey... Jonathan Toews playing for the Jets.
  22. Any reason to think Harris would want to come back?
  23. I don't trust Li.
  24. WHEN on meds.... damned right it was gruesome. You denying that, Jacquie? You seem to think this is cut & dried. Stay on his meds & he's okay. As long as he does that we'll be fine. Pretty naïve. I wonder how people in Selkirk feel about this guy walking unescorted in their town?
  25. I'm no Desjardins fan. I hope he is an epic fail. Just like he was in Hamilton.
