  1. True. But I mean, I've also watched all the games, in many cases multiple times, and I'm pretty confident in saying that Wild is a top-tier linebacker in the CFL. Citing tackle numbers is just a lot easier than going through and pointing at every play he has or has not made. In the end it's just an opinion either way.
  2. That's the problem you see? I don't think anyone is saying Steph is the mother considering White Woman + White Man does not equal Jason Jordan.
  3. Ehhh... not so sure about that one. He's been the heart of the defence while healthy. Was on pace for 105 tackles last year which would have put him 4th in the league behind Elimimian, Bear Woods, and Bighill. Wild's problem is he can't stay healthy.
  4. We have the Knox bros. But that seems a little quick to give up on Washington. He was fine in game 1.
  5. Hmm interesting perspective because Gable has been getting singles matches. Also wouldn't be the first instance of Angle/American Alpha speculation.
  6. The thing is, this angle has to go somewhere and we all believe we're heading for Angle vs HHH, right? If the story is "Angle is gay", what do you even do with that? It's like... ok he's gay. Are we going to have a homophobic heel wrestler try to fight him?
  7. Update: I am the best. Jeremiah Johnson.
  8. I wouldn't classify him as a refugee, I would just help him get back on his feet in the same way the gov't helps a refugee. I believe Khadr's case is quite unique and as such he would deserve unique treatment. I wouldn't want to just bring him back to the country and send him out on his own with no friends or family and very little education.
  9. I tire of this argument. My beliefs are that: Omar Khadr was screwed by his family and they are the real villains in this ordeal. Omar Khadr did not deserve to be held in Guantanamo Bay. Omar Khadr should have been brought back to Canada. Omar Khadr should have been allowed to walk free if it was determined he was not a risk to the Canadian public. Omar Khadr should never have received a rich settlement nor an apology. He should have been given exactly that which is given to new refugees by the Canadian government and allowed to integrate into society as a new refugee would. Paying a large settlement, under cover of secrecy and outside the rule of law, to a former terrorist (whether as a child or not) is the height of absurdity and a black mark on this government. And that's all I will say, and no one will change my mind on any of these six points. I think many people feel the same way I do.
  10. IMO this is bigger than just dollars and cents cost to the taxpayer. There are important principles here and precedents being set. If the government fights and loses, so be it. But at least they're going through the appropriate channels and standing up for what's right. Again, in my opinion.
  11. Maybe, maybe not. That's an assumption but it's not necessarily correct. I'd rather the government kept fighting and did it the right way rather than capitulating and doing a shady deal in secrecy.
  12. That's correct. Whether they have to pass through waivers or not is based on their "waiver-exempt" status which is determined by age and number of NHL games played. After doing a little research, I can confirm that Tanev is no longer waiver-exempt and would have to pass through waivers to go to the Moose. I also found this funny quote in the article I was reading:
  13. Does this strike you as a typical civil case?
  14. I don't trust WWE to handle a gay Angle angle appropriately. I really hope that's not the case.
  15. In other words, they deliberately skirted the judicial system in order to take matters into their own hands.
  16. The timing lines up with Dixie being involved with WWE recently. But will enough people care? I only know who Dixie Carter is from this thread lol.
  17. Seemed to be going well until someone came in making the accusation that anyone offering information that ran contrary to their own views must be getting that info from an alt-right blog.
  18. I'm not sure if they can send Tanev down without waivers to start the season. That would be news to me. But re-entry waivers have been eliminated. Players don't have to go through waivers on the way up anymore.
  19. So now it matters again?
  20. So why did you so strongly deny that she ever said it? You seemed to care quite a bit when you thought she agreed with you. Now when you realize you're wrong, it doesn't matter?
  21. Common element between first 1/3 of last season and first three games of this season is Ricky Ray.
  22. It's tough to get all the way to the end.
  23. I'd be on board with this. Actually kinda surprised he isn't with someone already.
  24. No way that fat lump can play WILL LB.
  25. They did not rule that he must be paid 10 million dollars.
