  1. From what I read now days artists pay to play during the half time show rather then the opposite. So I assume Katy Perry is trying to push more downloads and CDs. The effects were awesome but you can only do so much with an artist with little talent. Perry is a cookie cutter studio artist musician... She doesn't have the ability to sing raw and live like Bruno Mars.
  2. Such an unnecessary incident ... Why was the bad guy in a gay pub if he was such a homophobe and what kind of coward sucker punches a man twice his age? The guy should get an extra 6 years...
  3. what did he say?
  4. That was a mike Kelly level of fail...o Try to be to cute and smart and it lost them the game. As if Lynch wouldn't of ran it in on two attempts
  5. Who passes on the goal line? What a blunder of a call!
  6. What a crappy half time show...she couldn't even sing one song live?
  7. The site badly needed an upgrade because it was crashing on game days and the mods were very ban happy. The site was neglected so everyone came over here.
  8. I'm fairness to the Riders it isn't like they have a crap load of talent in other areas of the team. I would be more upset if they had a loaded defense to go with the expensive receivers. Forget not at one point we had Stegall Roberts Jones and other awesome receivers...
  9. Can the Jets stay out of the damn box? Dear lord so many penalties....
  10. I wasn't aware out west they have physiotherapists with magical skills that the ones in Winnipeg don't have....
  11. Am I the only one who listens to mp3s in the car?
  12. I would tend to think that most younger folks simply stream music these days...
  13. If Heenan was so adamant on staying then why haven't they come through with a deal yet?
  14. Imagine if he signs with the Riders !
  15. I am surprised that nobody is complaining about the trade. Its actually refreshing to see! So Sask takes on more salary and we free up salary right as Heenan is going to free agency... This looks promising!
  16. Ottawa will sign Nik lewis for big cash
  17. I only caught the last 10 minutes... disappointing that they can never get any points in Pittsburgh. They showed Pavs struggled with giving up massive rebounds.... me thinks Hutch will be getting many more starts down the road.
  18. Does Bogeys still show them? Kind of dumpy but not much of a demand for wrestling these days.
  19. Just like Walters bringing in Banks only to cut him... Every team does these kinds of things.
  20. Oh my bad I misread it, I thought Taman was saying the reason he was traded was because he wasn't happy in Regina.
  21. How was Foley not happy, why would he re sign with them if he wasn't happy.
  22. My coworker has played Goalie for 25 years and a lot of what he says is what I have been saying on here. I know he isn't an NHL expert but still basic fundamentals are not being Done by Pavs in which he would know about.
  23. I doubt they would send up a young gun, Chevy will only make a deal if it makes sense. He talked about this on the radio the other day, pretty much said he wouldn't dump key guys leaving a hole just to fill a different hole. He made it pretty darn clear that a trade would only be if we got rid of depth / prospects in exchange for someone who can fill the void. Considering we got Harrison for a bag of peanuts I would assume the Jets make a similar trade for the 3rd / 4th line...
  24. The thing is Pav gives up big rebounds and is flying around the net which at times gives the illusion of him making big saves. Hutch isn't flashy but because of his style he limits the amount of scoring opportunities. If Pav has better puck control and didn't flop around so much he would then have much less crazy diving saves / bad out of place goals on him. Last night the Jets clearly would of won with either guy but it was a very solid outing by Hutch.
  25. No way we sink money into another receiver. We needed to make a big splash last off season to prove to players/agents we would spend money. We tried going after Butler but lost out, Moore was an awesome consolation prize who tragically ended up being injured most of the season. We're going to go hard after Heenan for sure, and probably check the potential of Holmes and Bryant as well. I hope the Bombers will go hard after Ernest Jackson. From an SMS perspective he may give us the most bang for the buck. Willy can't complete passes to even the best route runners if he has no time to throw the ball. Fix the OL and CanCon first, and Moore, Denmark, Watson, and whoever else they field will be more than dangerous enough that we don't need to add a receiver. The best laid plans... Just because we want Heenan and Holmes does not mean we will get Heenan and Holmes. Even if Walters does everything right. Free agency is the rare time players have the power. There will be 9 teams interested in these guys, and maybe outside of Montreal and Calgary, they will all be offering buckets of cash. And seemingly lost on the internet, players are actually humans, not just commodities. Maybe Holmes has been anxiously waiting his rookie contract out so he can finally move home to Ottawa and be closer to his sick grandmother or something like that. Maybe Heenan is sick of the prairies after living here his whole life and doesn't want to move just one province over, maybe he wants to live in Vancouver and spend his winters skiing, cause why not do it while he's young, these opportunities come around once or twice in a lifetime? Free agency isn't just an auction with players going to the highest bidder. So anyways, say we set aside approx half a million just to go after those guys and land neither, then what? Have a money bonfire? Sign Hurl for $400,000 just because he's a NI who kinda sorta could start, or if nothing else has totally bitchin hair? Of course plan A and B should be chasing after NI Olinemen, but if plan A and B don't work out through no fault of our own, is having a plan C that includes bringing in another premier receiver for our young QB to target such a terrible idea? I don't think it is. And the notion that we can't bring in a top grade receiver AND a guy like Heenan is nonsense. Josh Bourke isn't making chicken feed in Montreal, or Perrette and the rest of that Oline, and Popp said they offered SJ Green enough money to make him the highest non-QB player in the league. There is room in the salary cap to afford lots of talented players on the same team. Why do people keep forgetting that we have signed a big time receiver on a big contract and that signing two big time contracts at receiver seems far fetched when the o line sucks?
