  1. They made more last year and still didn't get in cuz they can't play D and their goaltending sucks.. None of that changed.
  2. Yeah it annoys me how stephanie has to be the one to start this "divas revolution" like she was the one in NXT working with these girls they brought on to the main roster... what annoys me even more is the bellas now taking credit for it, like wtf really... There is just no logic in WWE at all.. none, i've know this for a long time, you aren't supposed to remember 2 weeks ago but... man we all do and it just makes no sense. The creative or lack there of, and Vince and his old boys club who are probably scared that if you let the women actually go out there and wrestle that they will actually be better than most the male roster is crazy. Sasha Banks vs Bayley... you put that on RAW and the crowd loves it.
  3. They have almost 10 million in goaltenders and both aren't very good actually. Niemi has regressed big time and Lehtonen while good, is very injury prone. I'm not worried about the stars goaltending at all. Honestly, I don't even think it's as much about goaltending as it is about playing good strong defensive hockey. Dallas has tons of fire power, aging fire power at that but.. they lack the ability to actually play D. Niemi doesn't change things, actually he might be worse than he was last year with San Jose.
  4. Raw was cool, The big man who looks legit scary as hell with the wyatts.... that was hella cool. The Dudleys Return, that was pretty good, Sting, The only issue with RAW i have is the womens match, the crowd took over chanting whatever they were chanting, it's pretty obvious the crowd wants women wrestling but they don't want the bellas out there. If the Bellas were actually not on TV for a while, the fans would start to enjoy it more but its so obvious the second the bellas start talking or wrestling even that the crowd loses complete interest and shits all over things. Can't say i blame them.
  5. Well. If being cheap means buying something for 5 bucks that's 10 bucks somewhere else... guess I'm cheap too but some might call that being smart
  6. No idea but Cam Marshall
  7. Totally disagree. When Buff is traded, the return will be a damn good return. He will get back a first and an A prospect at the very least. Maybe more if the Jets are willing to eat 1 million or so of his salary... I think they only trade him if the return is worth it anyway... They aren't gonna trade him just because, they will trade him because a deal actually makes sense to make. Guaranteed First and A prospect for sure. Guaranteed. No doubt about it otherwise they won't trade him. Losing him to free agency would suck but making a bad trade would be even worse. I'd rather hold on to him until someone offers something of interest to me, and eventually that will happen. Buff will get a very good return. 5.2 million isn't that much, plus if you wait a bit to trade him, maybe closer to the deadline... how much is left to pay him anyways. Ill keep going back to Sekera, A FIRST and an A prospect regardless of what one person thinks, MCKeown is an A prospect. Buff gets that at the very least.
  8. Bombers have a base amount of fans, it's like 24000 people really... Those 24000 people will go to games forever... If the team starts winning, that 24000 which is more than Montreal,Toronto,BC for that matter, Ottawa, Hamilton all regularly draw becomes 30,000 plus. Like Really... If the stadium was as tiny as Montreal, Ottawa or Hamilton, people wouldn't be talking about this, they'd be talking about yet another sellout. There is no novelty to stadiums, It's a stadium really... It's where the team plays... Not sure why people always think new stadium or arena = more people. It doesn't... It never has or never will... You have your base amount of fans that will go to games regardless, thats about 24000 here, maybe more even. Cuz the last few games have draw what? 26 27000? That's more than what half the damn league draws, hell more than half the damn league.
  9. The people of Winnipeg have changed, This isn't the 1980's anymore. Things have changed. This whole idea of -40 weather in the winter and being cheap is so just... It's so old it's not even funny anymore. I don't mind when people make fun of Winnipeg or whatever but.. try to at least be a tiny bit creative about it and not rehash things that were said 50 years ago. Winterpeg? Not creative. Cheap? Not creative. Try harder.
  10. Redblacks sign Ronnie Pfeffer to a 3 year deal.
  11. Nope. 3rd in the East has 4 wins. Bombers have 3. Tied for 3rd in the West. I keep seeing this post lol... So if it ended today... We'd see Edmonton i think and Hamilton with the byes.. Toronto would play Ottawa in Toronto and We'd Get Calgary in Calgary.
  12. Seth last night showed that if given a chance, he can steal the show too. Dude was on fire. But i think these days with the fans being smarter and maybe it's just NEW YORK but to me it seems like fans across the USA are smarter, they tend to cheer the guys who actually put on good matches... Yeah Owens is definitely a natural heel.. He's got huge potential to be a top Heel if they actually let him... that's the big question really, will they let him. They are dying for top heels, will they let owens become that guy. Roman as a heel is interesting, i think Ambrose would be the better heel but... I think if Ambrose turned on Reigns the crowd would cheer him.
  13. So you're now saying that there are no cumulative effects to getting pounded game after game? Yeah, you're right, you're done. Yup. Done for sure. Done feeding the Troll really.
  14. Doug Brown seems to think there's some merit to the idea of resting your battered star QB. So do I. It's obvious if you really think about it. But what does he know? http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/football/bombers/battered-willy-had-no-business-playing-bc-280613802.html Honestly, not as much as he likes to make us believe really. Sorry but Doug Brown isn't the be all and end all, quite honestly, Doug Brown is so full of Doug Brown that i'm honestly surprised he's able to breathe at times since he's obviously got his head so far up his own ass at times. I see. Don't debate the argument, attack the man personally. Got ya. Good, mature approach. Have you actually listened to Doug Brown? It's obvious he's full of Doug Brown.
  15. Yeah. Agree. They also lack top Heels, who is the top heel, is it rollins? cuz he's so good in the ring that he's starting to become a face of sorts, more tweener than heel, after that? Who is it? Sheamus? He's a joke in my opinion. Nobody really. I'd turn Cena Heel, he can still do his make a wish stuff, can still sell new merch... whatever really... Hogan turned, Rock Turned, Austin Turned, Cena hasn't, so stale as a face that turning him Heel would be a huge move and probably make things more interesting again. Lesnar ain't a heel either, he's too dominant so he gets over as a face... They lack top heel, Turn Roman heel? Maybe that's the plan. Hard to say. Sting apparently was supposed to be involved in the Regins,Ambros vs Wyatts match but cuz Rowan was hurt, they just went 2 on 2... Sting at RAW for sure.. wonder what his role might be... Taker Sting is a match i'd love to see, probably won't happen tho. Not sure how sting is used really.
  16. Bullcrap really... We lose and you are saying why didn't willy play.. It's pointless. I'm done now tho. People can have their different opinions but... sitting him one week does not mean he doesn't get injured the next... That's a fact really. It's pro sports, it's a contact sport, you can get hurt anytime really, anywhere. It makes no difference, the week b4 really, it's irrelevant...

  18. I don't think that happens... 1. Minny doesn't really need another RHD man and 2. They would have to overpay significantly i think... Coyle is a start but you should probably add a couple more big time pieces including a 1st. Suter already plays like 35 minute a night. They don't really have the space for Buff there.
  19. Just out of curiosity... How do you actually assess the coaches? What thoughts is that based on? A guy taking a dumb penalty? An odd play call? How do you actually assess the coaches sitting in the stands or in front of the TV...I mean, i'm not a football coach, i have no idea really... Just curious how people can be so sure the coaches are so awful when really, unless you are once again in the room or on the sidelines, you really don't know do you?
  20. They have lost touch with reality... They don't give the fans what they want anymore. That's why ratings are going down. People have seemingly had just about enough of the same old same old. Rollins vs Cena was a great match but man Cena needs to learn how to sell, i'll give that match a 4 out of 5 but if Cena actually sold some of those moves better, it might have been a 5/5.
  21. I still think Columbus or Detroit will be Buffs destination... Columbus being the most likely.. Something around Rychel the 1st and something else to even the cash out... Not sure what tho.. Ideally a LHD man but... not sure. Columbus is going for it and is actually lacking a legit TOP pair D man, i could see them wanting Buff for sure.
  22. Not to be that guy but... Willy and willie are pronounced the same but Wylie is not... that's like Wylie Coyote really. Why am i not shocked tho that Gbill was going on about Willies again tho....
  23. Just saw that too. Haven't seen it reported anywhere reputable but will check into it. It would not surprise me. Even if Cena didnt specifically make the request, it would not surprise me if a writer pushed for something because they think Cena wants it. ie. booking what you think the top guy wants. It did seem weird that the Bellas were suddenly being portrayed as these awesome workers who were the ones saving the division. And most of us said from the start Charlotte should have squashed Nikki on Day One. Yeah... Bellas eliminated Team BAD last night early without really seeing much of Sasha in the match was a little interesting to say the least. Dominating paige for a long time too. Becky getting the win and not Charlotte. Was odd. I was watching and thinking to myself, wow they are trying to kill the divas revolution already aren't they. The Bellas are such awful workers, they over act, don't sell, their moves look just so awkward... they both lots. It's not good and i think the bellas are part of the reason that the divas division is where it is right now, they aren't good and you got way better talent in paige sasha charlotte becky, even naomi trying to make them look good.
  24. And here it is. Your very weak argument to blame MOS for not sitting out Willy for the BC game. Even though Willy said he was ready. Even though every medical opinion cleared Willy to play. To give Marve some playing time...in a most important game against BC...which we won...with Willy in the lineup. Your argument was weak weeks ago, and it's still weak now. So you're saying you know for sure that had Willy rested his knee for that BC game that it wouldn't have helped him and it still would have been injured? Crystal ball? So you're saying that there is no way we win that game against BC with Marve at QB? Same crystal ball? So you're saying that it wouldn't have helped Marve immensely against Toronto to have had that extra playing time against BC while Willy rested? That Toronto game was also very winnable for us. Isn't that 2 points just as important? How many points will we lose now with Willy gone? Even after the worst happened and we lost Willy for the season and our backup had to go into the Toronto game and lost a close one with 1 stinking practice under his belt to prepare? Wow. Talk about stubborn. Isn't it just possible that giving Willy some rest after he initially hurt his knee might have been a good idea? As Doug Brown pointed out last season, the poor guy has been getting absolutely pounded behind this o-line with little to no relief? He's been forced to play nicked and banged up for most of his time here and it has affected his performance. Is this really the best way to handle our franchise player and star QB? Yup...talk about stubborn is you. After he hurt his knee, he was running all over the field like a gazelle He was fine. In the next game, with time in between...I guess you didn't really watch the play where his knee got hyperextended, which could have happened in any game at any time to anyone. Trying to connect the two over and over and blame the coaches is ludicrous! Yeah, you're right. It's a much better idea to keep running Willy out there for his beatings until he's too hurt to continue and only give the backup QB some playing time when you have no other choice. Good plan. It's working out really well for us so far. Since this is all just pointless crap, lets add another pointless question to it... What if they sat Willy vs BC, we lost... what would you say then? Thats the first pointless question. Second one, he plays vs Hamilton, still gets hurt and is out 6-8 weeks still.. then what would you say?
  25. It's a 5 team no move clause... Not sure who they are but... Toronto,Edmonton,Montreal are probably 3 of them. Maybe New Jersey and Buffalo to complete list. You know what.. Buffalo for sure since KANE is there now but... I dunno, bet it's some big market place. Buff strikes me as a guy who would be more than happy to avoid markets with tons of media. Im thinking NYR or LA or even Philly, so many rumors linked to Philly that you'd almost think, well, why hasn't he been traded there by now already.
