He's got some name value (for better or worse) and he fights at heavyweight where talent is always scarce. They hope that, given his natural athletic ability, he can develop into something special. I'm not convinced yet, based on what I've seen so far and the favourable match-ups they've given him.

Agreed. And they still haven't shown all their roster yet (at least on Dynamite). They still have a number of very talented workers who have only appeared in dark matches so far.

Thief would be a good start.

Pretty sure MOAB is referring to the fact that Richie has had his own health issues over the last few years.

On Twitter, I've seen Bridge & Lulay thrown out there as possibilities. Durant would be the only other guy I could think of.

Lots of shots fired in that promo, I popped for "we're not NEXT, we're NOW".

Have you seen some of the things that have been said about Nichols or (to a lesser extent) Steveler on here?

It's the only thing he can still do somewhat effectively. He certainly didn't do much else in Edmonton. James Neal, on the other hand, is fitting in quite well with his new team. It's still early but the Oilers are definitely winning that trade right now.

Would have preferred this 15 years ago but still gonna watch!

Hall still isn't back from dealing with his family issue so you might get your wish. It's addition by subtraction in my mind.

It's amazing how far Franklin's stock has fallen... from a star QB in waiting to being worth less in trade value than a guy who can't last more than a few snaps.

That thought popped into my head when I saw they made an offer for him... the flipside is losing to Sask with Collaros behind center (for as long as that would last). They have enough stuff to yap about already so no thanks to taking Rider trash off the scrap heap..

He took a stick from Taylor Hall. The fans were going nuts because they thought it came from a Jet and should have been a penalty. The stick got him bad enough that they were pulling fibreglass out of his gums.

When Chamblin was hired Dunk had this to say, so they might also be paying for Trestman as well which would make it even more difficult for them to lure MOS away.

They can just go ahead and cancel my season tickets if they would even contemplate this. I don't want to see him back in any capacity next season, never mind giving him a promotion!

Truthfully, he's probably a better fit (right now anyway) with the WWE, in my opinion. The angle with Brock writes itself and neither guy is expected to put on a technical masterpiece.

Went to my 1st Ice game last night. Not a great first impression, getting pumped 7-0 by the Oil Kings, but overall we enjoyed it. We'll definitely be checking out a couple more games this season.

Depends on how old your cable box is or what type it is. My older cable box showed MLS soccer but my newer one did show AEW. Either way, it's a good number considering how last minute it was added.

Pvr numbers are tracked so even if you're not watching live, it is still accounted for. https://www.stltoday.com/entertainment/television/tv-q-a-do-recorded-shows-count-in-network-ratings/article_6fbbc8c5-a785-57a6-8e8e-6ec9f440b9ae.html

Thoughts on the AEW debut? I really enjoyed it but I wish we would have seen more of Kenny. It would have been a great time to really introduce him to North American audience that may have only heard of him or seen limited footage but I guess you can only fit so much stuff in. It didn't feel like a 2 hour show for me and it went by quickly. Was not expecting Swagger, especially with a mma fight in a few weeks. Huge get for them.

Van Hammer. There was terrible work from both guys in that spot.

Thanks for the tip on Kanopy, I'll have to check that Nas documentary out. I watched the the new Evolution season as it came out... so good!

TBH, at this point I don't care which QB they bring in. All 3 have their downsides but the last thing I want to do is go into the playoffs with only Strevy & McGuire on the roster, It's not like we'd be bringing any of these guys in to be QB1 but as an extreme worst-case scenario, I'd rather have someone with CFL experience than be forced to sign some random guy off the streets.

Don't forget Disco Inferno! On second thought, maybe it's better to forget him...
