There's commissions like Texas or Edmonton that are on a whole other level though. They have repeatedly ignored their own regulations & that could get someone seriously hurt. They are lawsuits waiting to happen.

Appeals are very rarely successful and Texas has a terrible commission so I don't hold out much hope. They might not have officially passed the new rules but they have a history of making stuff up on the fly so who knows what the fighters were told during the rules meeting. Poirier might have a good case though... to be successful he would need to prove that Herb made an error (which he did when he considered the 1st knees legal if old rules were used).

The disunified rules of MMA. If Rogan is correct (which might not be the case) and that commission uses the old rules, then all of those knees are illegal. Poirier could appeal if that's the case and Herb made a mistake. Terrible situation for fighters and ref's with the rules right now.

Got tons of MMA-related stories. Top ones would be when Mike Goldberg's girlfriend/wife grabbed my ass in an elevator right in front of him (she really just picked off something that was stuck to my pant leg but my version sounds better!) ? Matt Serra came to my hotel room & shot the **** for a few minutes the day before he had his rematch with GSP in Montreal. He was in the suite next door and my friend slipped a note under his door wishing him luck. He was grateful that we didn't try to disturb him or let people know where he was staying so he just wanted to say hello & thank us. Thought it was cool of him to do that when he really should have been resting & recovering from weigh ins.

He announced his retirement about a month ago.

I wonder if they see Michael Ritchott as someone with CFL potential (even if it's just as a back-up)? If that's the case, then they saved themselves a draft pick since he'd be a territorial exemption.

Both Herdmans got drafted (Justin to Toronto & Jordan to BC). Matt Singleton is a free agent afaik.

Waggoner has retired? Just one sentence at the bottom of the image in the tweet.

The lawsuit that Arland Bruce filed against the CFL has been thrown out.

It's a nice thing for his resume but when you look deeper, he only had one year a a starter with Alabama and was cut twice by NFL teams without even making it to training camp. The Redskins cut him after mini-camp last year & Detroit did the same a few weeks later. Adrian Hubbard won 2 national championships with Alabama and we saw how well he did up here.

McCabe also went against the WH claims that Comey had lost support of FBI employees. http://www.mediaite.com/online/acting-fbi-director-contradicts-claim-that-fbi-lost-confidence-in-james-comey/

Can we still use IMWT or did Joe Mack kill that one?

Mark forum as read is a great feature!

Stamps are losing OL to retirement at almost Rider-like pace. Lavoie & Craighead are both 1st round picks who retired at age 25 within 16 months of each other. You can also add in Tsoumpas who retired early a few years ago. Huff must have a few horseshoes wedged somewhere because it hasn't really seemed to affect them, we'll see how long that lasts.

I caught part of an episode last week at a friends place and that was enough to convince me to give it a shot. This episode (I assume) was fairly deep into the series so my friend had to give me a basic run down & i couldn't believe I hadn't watched it before. Looking forward to binging on it.

I just finished season 2 the other day. We really enjoy the show and felt the same way you feel now (where will it go next season?). Season 2 isn't very old so I don't expect season 3 for a while.

Looks like Foley has found himself a home. Wonder who picked him up?

I doubt Mike would have started this post if there was nothing to the story. Just got to hope it's nothing too serious and Ritchie pulls through it ok.

Pretty sure that didn't help O.J. in the civil suit.

Just another day in Regina. They also released a few players including Henoc's brother Kelvin.

My wife teaches out of a hot yoga studio so I can attest to the never ending pile of towels. During the 30 days challenges, people will often take back-to-back classes rather than go every day. The goal is to do 30 classes in 30 days so for some, that's easier than trying to make it to a class every single day.

Shouldn't be an issue because from what i read, Judge seems to be more of a SAM than MLB. He started in the middle at UCLA but was moved outside eventually . Jones figures there's about 3 spots they can play him at.

I would take Judge too. There are enough good DT's in this draft that we could still fill that need.

Truth... not even St. Patty's day is a good enough reason for me to wear green.
