    Do you think Jones still carries that much weight in PPV buys?
  2. UFC

    Curious timing. Very curious...

    Interesting, of the 20 starters, 8 are from the US. I include Comrie in the 8.
  4. Those are elite QBs, mostly playing in a similar pro-style system in college. The elite of the elite. You want a raw rookie, with no Canadian football experience to step in? You get Streveler, who looks good but is not ready to start.
  5. Execute. Make plays.

    No doubt. I'm in exactly the same boat. I just don't want to spend that much money on a phone. I believe that they pushed a bit too far. We'll see if they meet their forecasts.

    Where does the Xr slot in? Too high? I didn't really look at it or consider it. I'll be watching with curiosity when Apple needs to announce their sales. That should be telling if they miss targets.

    I've been an Android fan and supporter for 8 years. I'm pretty invested in the ecosystem, both Android and Google. Google Minis at home, Chromecasts, YouTube Premium, etc. That being said, in my last position at work, I had an iPhone. I had it just short of two years and I miss it dearly. Not because of the tech but because of a few simple things like iMessages. My friends and family have iPhones and I relied heavily on the simplicity of iMessages, including the group chat. I'm up for renewal now and I was prepared to get an iPhone over an Note 9. Now, with these prices, I can't justify it. It will cost me hundreds more. I like the larger screen, so I would need a Xs Max. I need more than 64gb, so I would need to get the 256gb model. It will cost me $640 more to get the iPhone Xs Max over the Note 9. That's a lot of money. I can make the Google ecosystem work without an Android phone but I can't get over the price difference.

    I thought he was waiver exempt still? I know he's on a one-way deal, but doesn't he need to get to 60 NHL games or 2 years or something before he needs clear waivers?

    I'm a big Captain America fan and I'm hoping that they kill off Steve. They are a lot of great story arcs they've done with Cap after Steve was gone. They could, quite easily, integrate a new Cap into the next generation of Marvel story lines. That being said, there are plenty of characters that have not been used yet that they could go to for the next round and I could see a backlash against recycling the "Captain America" brand so soon. Most people don't know or care about all the Caps or Thors or Spideys or etc. They'll want fresh and new.

    Niku won't make the team. He needs more seasoning and they have too many defenders on one-way contracts already.
  13. Once learned to be used properly, it's a glorious thing. Unfortunately, I initially missed a step or two.
  14. He was back in full gear, confirmed by Sara Orlesky but did not play again.

    Captain Marvel looks great. It's going to be quite the spring with Captain Marvel followed closely by Avengers.
  16. The non-goal. And, don't fret the score. The teamed played well, the youngsters looked good and we got great goal-tending from our back-up. Win-win-win.

    I think, early on, they'll eat big minutes but as Maurice becomes more comfortable with the third pairing, they'll eat up more minutes.
  18. This does not make any sense.

    Not sure either.

    See, just get the ball into Collaros' hands.
  21. JCon replied to SpeedFlex27's post in a topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
    I don't know, if I'm Ottawa, I'm putting my trust in Collaros.

    Wow, pretty dodgy call to get the Riders a TD. The Refs are working overtime to get them a win.

    Year after year?

    I don't think you call it clutch when you finally show up to a game, late in the 4th quarter. Making a play in the first quarter is as valuable as the fourth. Unless you're also calling Nichols late TD against the Stamps clutch?

    He did hit him in the head (from the last angle they showed). He tried to avoid him but he still made contact wayyyy past the sideline.
