Sounds like it worked out for both teams. More so for us though because we didn't have to give anything up for guys we ended up getting anyway. I figure we offered up one of our 2 picks plus #19 (I get that feeling because Walters mentioned giving up that pick) so we would have lost out on Loffler if my guess is correct.

This has been rumored for months now and so far it's just been that... a rumor. If this happens, it won't be until after the ufc has their show in NYC. Holding an event in Madison Square Garden has long been a dream of theirs and they have spent millions trying to get MMA legalized there.

And with the last pick of the draft, Edmonton screws up that plan!

This morning Hamonic said the request was due to the health of an extremely close family member. That situation has since stabilized so he's able to rescind the trade request.

His tweet makes me wonder if he got released to pursue an NFL shot rather than because of his performance?

You never know with American players coming up here for the 1st time though. I'm sure there have been guys who done that in the past... I'm actually surprised it doesn't happen more often (especially in Regina!).

Here's a quote from when Jernigan left mini-camp: I suppose those personal reasons could have been that he hated it here but that's not how it read it me.

Royal blue with a nice golden horn. Pretty nice combination of you ask me. -

In related news, I have a flying unicorn for sale if anyone is interested. -
It's actually called the Konami code because you can use it on a ton of other games (not just ones by Konami either). There are still games coming out that use the code, although the "bonus" for using it varies wildly.

Boudreau is originally from Toronto & his family live in St Catherines. You might be confusing him with Mike Duffy.

hefney signs 1-day contract, retires a bomber
bigg jay replied to Taynted_Fayth's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
IIRC, he was more critical of the team before he was released than he was after. Darren Cameron's article mentions that he got in trouble with Mack/Burke for tweeting stuff about players they cut & how Huff wouldn't put up with that kind of stuff. Jovon has been much more vocal since leaving than Hefney ever was. -
Different companies. Canada Amusements (I think that's the name) did the one at KP & Wondershows did Rona.

bigg jay replied to Taynted_Fayth's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
He played 3 fulls seasons (and a partial fourth) and was a 3 time all-star for us, and helped get us to the Grey Cup. I think it's a small but classy thing for the Bombers to do, recognizing past players who have made an impact for us. His own thoughts on why he wanted to do it: -
They can always move it to Panet Rd. The one they have set-up there now is fantastic if you're looking for a trip to the hospital. http://winnipeg.ctvnews.ca/investigation-underway-after-incident-in-parking-lot-amusement-park-1.2884238

The curse of the Goldeyes! Mind went bankrupt a few years later and then CanWest followed suit. I was working at Mind around that time and people were furious that they were spending the money on that kind of thing when they had serious financial issues. People were being laid off on a regular basis but there was still money for naming a ball park?

They can change it to arena instead of centre. Similar to Rogers Centre in Toronto & Rogers Arena in Vancouver
-
True North isn't going to throw money at themselves though. Huge money in naming rights these days so if Bell (or someone else) offers them a ton of cash to stick their name on the building, they're going to take it.

This is why I didn't want the Leafs to win... their fans and media are going to be unbearable.

He's hurt and won't be ready for the start of the season. He tore his ACL in November and that's why Hamilton is letting him go. -

Danny could legitmize Jon (eventually) as well. If his parentage is both Stark/Targaryen, he would be the unifying link between the two families. Danny might legitimize him as a Stark in exchange for not chasing his claim to the Iron Throne (which I don't think he'd want anyway, much like Ned didn't). I can't ever see a Stark/Lannister alliance, not after everything that's happened to the Starks. I think best case scenario for the Lannisters is that they don't get completely wiped out. Tyrion has mended fences with both the Targaryens & Starks (Jamie has helped with the Starks as well) but there's still a lot of bad blood.

Ramsay was legitimized by Tommen.
