Cornish. I want to pick Harris, I really, really do. But I'm sticking with Cornish. And are we doing the other game where you pick the winner of each game? I really suck at that one.... ****. Where was I when Cornish retired???? Let me think about this some more.

Sure I would. But I can't for another week or so and what I saw in the first half against Ottawa doesn't give me much hope. Our starters vs their starters and Willy got hurried and hit a lot. At this rate, Willy will be hurt and we will be back to 2014/15. I just didn't see the question as being out of line. Maybe it needed to be worded a bit better (the team gave up 59 sacks), but not worthy of the rant for sure.

I still want a ******* answer to how the O-line is going to be better this year. Too bad he really didn't answer that. It was a big problem last year and from what we saw in the first half of the Ottawa pre-season game, not enough has changed. Love his crankyness all you want, but it still is something that should be answered.

WTF was wrong with the sack question? Yes they aren't all on the O-line, but why the rant about it. Seemed like a decent question to me. Team gave up 59 sacks last year, what has changed on the o-line to improve on that? Seems he's trying to spread the blame around instead of answering the actual question.

That makes me sad. Great guy all around.

Only because the Koch brothers told them to hate Trump

Is it time to wake up yet?????

I think the choice of running mate will matter more for Hillary then Trump. She needs to pick someone likeable.

Vision having the stone was done in Age of Ultron. -
How many non-canon birth of borg stories are there? I know the one you are referring to, and there is a 4 book story that covers TOS, TNG, DSP and Voy as the Borg birth from a crew of castaways.

Brain fart on my part. -
Captain America: Civil War - Spoiler Thread

Enjoyed the move for the most part. Wouldn't call it my fav, but way, way better than BVS. Couple things didn't work for me though. Did not like what they did to Aunt May. Just seemed creepy to me in a way. The bad guys plan didn't work for me. Way too complicated and relied too much on Iron Man being there at the end. No way he could have seen that Iron Man would figure it all out in the proper time frame to be in the missile silo to see the video. It all relied on a hotel hostess dropping breakfast off at the right time and setting off a specific list of events. While he could control the timing of breakfast and when the real shrink was found, the rest was contrived. Reminded me of Palpatines plans all coming together. Now I don't know Shemo from the comics, so I didn't miss anything else with him. Spider Man seemed too young. But otherwise was pretty good. Didn't buy Stark bringing him into the fight though. Agree with Logan that the shakey cam was annoying. They need to stop doing this. Also something seemed "off" in the fight scenes. Almost like the action was too fast and the frame rate seemed off. BW seemed especially choppy. Might have just been the theatre, but it bugged me. -
That's part of the reason I'm seeing Merca tonight. Plus it's the cheaper (but definitely not cheap) night at the Extreme theater.

Agree with this. Deadpool worked as an R movie because it was Deadpool. Just like Jackman and Downey Jr., Reynolds was THE guy for the role. But if they just make more of the movies R rated "because", they won't work. Not sure I think Wolverine will work as well as an R rated movie.

Probably try for next Tuesday. Bit cheaper at the Extreme theater.

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelowna On 7 May 1992, a forest fire consumed 60 hectares of forest on Mount Boucherie in West Kelowna across Lake Okanagan from Kelowna proper: no homes were damaged, however. In August 2003, a nearby wildfire destroyed over 200 homes and forced the temporary evacuation of approx. 30,000 residents.[7] During the 2003 fire, many trestles of the historic Kettle Valley Railway were destroyed. All the trestles have been rebuilt to look like the originals but using smaller dimension beams. In late August 2005, a 30 hectare fire caused multiple evacuations in the Rose Valley subdivision across the lake in West Kelowna. In July 2009 wildfires destroyed hundreds of hectares of forest and a number of buildings in West Kelowna; 17,000 residents were evacuated.[8] In July 2009, a 100 hectare fire near Rose Valley resulted in the evacuation of 7,000 people. No structures were lost. In July 2009, a 9,200 hectare fire behind Fintry resulted in the evacuation of 2,500 people. No structures were lost. On 12 July 2010, a 30 hectare fire in West Kelowna destroyed one home and caused multiple evacuations. September 2011, a 40 hectare fire in West Kelowna's Bear Creek Park caused the evacuation of over 500 people. In July 2012, a 30 hectare fire caused the evacuation of the small community of Wilson's Landing just North of West Kelowna. In September 2012, a late season, 200 hectare fire destroyed 7 buildings and resulted in the evacuation of 1,500 people in the community of Peachland. In July 2014, a 340 hectare fire behind the West Kelowna subdivision of Smith Creek caused the evacuation of 3,000 people. In August 2014, a 40 hectare fire above Peachland resulted in the evacuation of one home. In July 2015, a 55 hectare fire in the Joe Rich area caused the evacuation of over 100 properties. In July 2015, a 560 hectare fire near Shelter Cove caused the evacuation of 70 properties. In August 2015, a 130 hectare fire burned near Little White mountain just south of Kelowna. This isn't all of them. I distinctly remember one prior to 2003 in the Fintry area not on the list.

But no mention of how it can be viewed in Canada? Can we even get All Access?

Wiecek Article: Pressure Mounts On And Off Field For MOS
tacklewasher replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Gotta agree with you here. Lackluster play has not led to enough time out of games for the last 2 years. Don't need MOS to toss players under the bus like Burke, and don't want the extreme of the Rider coach who benched players for every fumble, but there is a happy medium and MOS isn't there. He needs to get there. He also needs to realize this and change. I'm concerned he doesn't get it. -
Spoke too soon.

looking good so far tonight. Canucks have actually scored, Toronto is winng and we just gave up one.

So, people on both sides of the electorate are idiots for listening to these dumbasses. I can get behind that. The odd thing Obama did promise his first time through he didn't follow through on (Gitmo is still open). But we have the same to look forward to up here. We voted in the man-child and now get to see how many of the promises we think he made he will actually keep.
-
The sad part will be if Trump wins his nomination, this will guarantee a win for Hillary and she will be a terrible President. Worse than Obama. Just not sure Cruz would be any better. The US has it worse right now then we did choosing between the tyrant and the man-child.

If they are not comfortable with it, then they should be in an area of practice where the issue does not come up. Reminds me of pharmacists who don't want to sell birth control. If they are unwilling to provide legal care, including end of life decisions, then they should not be allowed to have their morals trump the patients.

I'd watch that. Loved the old cartoons and that movie was great.
