  1. How can you both not consider 20 people in a backyard as not being "part of the industry" when Daniel Bryan commented in the ring the night he retired on Raw that he remembers wrestling in a gas station parking lot in front of a few people & was proud that he did? The Indies & these types of exhibitions are just as much a part of wrestling as WrestleMania in Dallas. And Brandon & TUP think you guys can keep this thread from being locked, too?
  2. Steroid abuse has proven to cause cancer. You can't say the Chris Benoit tragedy wasn't wrestling related with all the medications & head shots he took over the years. No doubt he also juiced up as well. While Chris Benoit killed his family when he snapped it's all related to the wrestling industry.
  3. Offensive pass interference makes sense but the others?? Don't like the idea of giving another challenge to a coach if the first is successful. Too much technology & too many challenge flags. Besides, we already know that 90% of every big play next season especially on punt returns will be called back anyway.
  4. Martha is bitter & she has a right to be. I have no problem with the WWE putting Owen in the WWE HOF as he should be. She shouldn't be the reason Owen doesn't go in. If she doesn't like it then stay home. Let the rest of the Hart family enjoy the event. My comment was just that we as strangers shouldn't just say she should "just let it go". He died doing a stunt that both Sting & Shawn Michaels did safely more than once.
  5. I don't think anyone has the right to judge Martha Hart & the way she feels about the death of her husband.
  6. They why are you here always talking ****?
  7. Living in Calgary the past 26 years for like 15 years of all that I'd hear Flames fans wondering how much better Jarome Iginla would ha e been in his prime with a quality centre man feeding him the puck. I can only imagine how many more goals Iggy would have had with Dale Hawerchuk as his centre instead of some of the stiffs Iginla played with. You have to wonder how committed the Flames as an organization were to winning back a decade ago when they had the premier power forward in the NHL & they just flat out refused to spend the money to bring in a quality centre for him to play with. Darryl Sutter just would not bring in a centre & it continued after Sutter was fired to when Jarome Iginla finally asked to be traded. Barry Sanders walked out on the Detroit Lions & retired because he felt the Lions weren't committed to winning. Iginla should have demanded a trade in 2006 instead of waiting until 2013 to finally leave as it appeared the Flames had no interest in winning either. To be champions, every NHL team needs that crafty number one centre position to set up his wingers. Flames never had one. They may have one now in Sean Monahan. The Jets as well in Mark Scheifle as he continues to improve & get better.
  8. Dale Hawerchuk was exceptional. He made Paul MacLean into a 40 goals plus a year scorer. MacLean was drafted by the St. Louis Blues but spent a year in the minors before being called up for 1 game. He then became a Winnipeg Jet & Dale's linemate & was considered a power forward in today's game. Like Gretzky, Hawerchuk could see the entire ice & had the ability to anticipate plays & where his linemates were so he could feed them the puck. Hawerchuk made every Jet he played with a better player.
  9. Why no increased seating like they were going to do before? The cost of putting in the 7,000 temporary seats is chump change for the NHl. The Legends & regular season game would sell out no problem so why not increase capacity to 40,000.
  10. Heritage Classic on October 23rd at IGF. Legends game will include Wayne Gretzky, Messier, Kurri & Coffey. Lowe & the Jets will include Hawerchuk, Selanne, maybe Bobby Hull.
  11. Then there's the Shane Doan thing about being the all time leading score in AZ Coyotes history.. It took the guy over 20 years to do it... I think Hawerchuk did it in 8 Jets seasons before leaving for either Buffalo or Philly. Doan is a very good hockey player. He has to be to be able to play as long as he has in the NHL but in no way possible is he better than Hawerchuk, Dale is a Jet. Not a frigging Coyote. Same with Bobby Hull, Anders Heberg & others that played in the WHA. I hate that all the former Jets 1.0 records all belong to the Coyotes. The NHL should have worked out an agreement that everything prior to 1996 belongs to the new Jets & simply retire the Thrashers records... They are still relevant but only belong to Atlanta. Everything in AZ should belong to them after 1996. Doing it that way then those records are still ours. Just imagine the outcry if Jim Brown's rushing records belonged to the Baltimore Ravens? That just wouldn't be right. NFL did it the right way giving all the old time Browns records back to the team when it came back to Cleveland. Wished that would have happened here.
  12. Love to see Teemu suit up one more time for the Jets alumni.
  13. What are you talking about? In the old Smythe Division the Jets had some great players like Hawerchuk, Scott Armiel, Brian Mullin, Paul Maclean, Dougie Smail & others who could always give the Oilers of the time a great game. It was a great rivalry so why would you say that?
  14. So, our coaching staff, it's almost the 2nd week of March.
  15. Memo to new players. Find yourself a good agent & don't negotiate a contract on your own. The contractual thing to do is to live by the terms of the deal. The right & perhaps the moral thing to do is for Wally to renegotiate a new contract with Jennings in good faith.
  16. He would be a Libertarian.
  17. That was stolen apparently from Paul Ryan according to CNN. .
  18. Trump is undefendable. How anyone can think that this multi billionaire buffoon actually cares about them is unbelievable.
  19. Trump's the *******. Why would I call you an *******? Why would you even think that?
  20. What an *******. People are so stupid.
  21. I thought we had a pretty good lineup going into this season?
  22. I think they do. #outoffootball
  23. Think a black actor will win a major Oscar next year?
