This is not true at all, they have to either buy him out or trade him. He had a crap season so I doubt anyone trades for him.

In the early 2000's I remember him coming to my work absolutely trucked up... I think drugs killed his radio career. He used to a complete mess. http://uniter.ca/view/rivers-edge I think nowdays he might have a podcast or an internet show....

Who actually thought that they would be in on Bishop though? It's been made very clear that they want a vet back up Elliott type of guy... not an elite starter.

I feel like a thread should be created for funny celeb stories.... I have a wrestling one. Back in the 80's we were at the airport in Los Angeles waiting for our flight to come home. We hear a commotion and see two very familiar men drunk (possibly on drugs) screaming at some air port security. One man looked to be Iranian with a giant black mustache and a thick accent... the other man was tall with long curlier hair. I was very young at that point and was trying to understand why the Iron Sheik and Jake the Snake Roberts were sitting together since they would be enemies on TV. It turns out that they didn't allow them on the flight because they were really messed up, they had a house show to go to in Winnipeg and missed it since the airlines didn't let them on the plane. I did get two autographs out of the situation. My other fun local celebrity memory is when I was a teen in the 90's working at McDonalds and both Chris Walby and Miles Gorrell helped on Ronald McDonald Big Mac Day behind the counter.... I never felt so tiny as I did standing between two absolute behemoths. Both super awesome guys though.

Danny O'Brien has been playing for the Redblacks for the last 3 seasons... I don't believe he has red hair.

Don't forget the massive amount of OT they get on top of the big salary.... In fairness though certain other jobs (i.e. Teachers) can make very high salaries for what seems to be a job that shouldn't be that difficult to do...

Purely based on what Lawless and other NHL guests have said on the radio. Way more praises for Comrie then Helle...

Still better then Maurice... For this year it didn't help that Holtby really dropped the bar for half of the games in the series...

So you would rather us keep the current coach who made it to the finals?

From my friends at Winnipeg Police... one of the most time consuming and wasting responsibilities for them is checking in on people with curfews , people on parole, trying to find youths who ran away etc... lots of wasted time.

Not a huge issue, a large part of many administrative staff in policing agencies transcribe audio interviews, statements , etc... All of this is used in court. Evidence would always be handled by non clerical staff (naturally), so collection and processing of evidence would always be done by the experts. I always have a good laugh watching CSI type shows and how loose they are with the evidence and how fast everything processes... what takes an hour on tv usually is a month or two in real life.

Need to staff and set up the infrastructure all while being financed.... also trying to introduce change in any agency is always a pain.

I may have heard that in the near future the plan is for all policing agencies to have administrative staff fill out all of the paper work / reports while the officers would then spend much more time away from a desk.

I assume this was more so for the drunk homeless people that they have to pick up at all times of the day passed out downtown. It would be nice to have somewhere (preferably far out of town) where non police can dump off the scary drunks. The law is enforced..frequently as well. Many a time I have seen passed out drunks around the Portage Place area. The guys don't get charged but it definitely wastes the resources of the police and ambulances. I can't remember the financial amount but the city pays a whole lot every year on ambulance fees for drunks. In Regina and Vegas they have in the past bought one way tickets for their frequently drunk homeless people and ship them far away.

I hope they can him as well... then immediately after this the Jets then have a press conference to announce our new coach!

Nay I'm to lazy and don't have time to check. If you want an NFL example Colin Kaepernick had 16 TD and 4 int 4:1 ratio and a win loss record of 1-10.

What was there win loss records?

Refresh my memory.... what was the win loss records of Ray, Collaros , Harris and Durant last season? Numbers are nice to a certain point....

The Jets would be insane to not make the trade if by some magical reason New Jersey offered Corey straight up for Helle. The future goalie is Comrie, Helle is a 3 year stop gap if that unless he turns it around...

I don't think TCF should get a thread on it's own.

Is that a joke?

Lawless is funny thinking that the team would trade away Ehlers + Comrie + prospects for Corey Schneider. The banter of Hustler banging his head against the wall trying to explain to Lawless that with Pavelec off the books that the club has much more money to drop on a bigger name goalie without having to dump Ehlers and his possible future salary was great. Also him trying to explain the Lawless that it makes no sense for the Jets to trade away Ehlers rather then a 1st round draft pick because Ehlers is a proven guy and a 1st round draft pick wouldn't be a guarantee was hilarious. The whole segment came away with me thinking that Lawless really doesn't put a lot of thought in his comments. As for free agent goalies... their are a tonne of experienced guys still on the market. The Jets were never going to get Bishop. Mason is a likely target same with Elliott... guy who will play 30 - 50 games for 2 seasons is what they want.

My expectations of our offense is much lower then 40 TD - 0 Ints kind of dream land. I fully expect that our offense will kick a bunch of points and Nichols I think is closer to the 25 TD - 17 Ints kind of numbers. The thing I like about Nichols is that he is the guy unlike Glenn who even after getting hit, would be able to put together a game winning drive late in the 4th quarter.
