- Jets Game Day Experience
Jets sent this out to season ticket holders today. Sellouts aren't a guaranteed thing anymore. Game day experience is very lack lustre compared to what happens in a lot of other buildings. It used to be generated organically, but those has slowly been dying out over the last 4 - 5 years. Maybe 1 game in 10 - 15 has the atmosphere that was in the arena for the first few years. Constant ticket price increases, concession increases. Throw in a team that is struggling this year. Jets are going to have to start working to attract a fan base they've likely taken a bit for granted over the last little while. https://www.tnse.com/our-company/community-message/- 2019-20 Grey Cup Champs Off-season discussion.

Half the season has gone by without paying Buff. Wouldn't that mean they could take in up to a $7.6M. AAV contract even if Buff comes back. Even if you take in a multi year deal, you have Kulikov coming off the books next year.- Do You Use Chat?
I've noticed over time, the game day chat is used less and less. There is an expense to renew it every year and it is coming due in January, it isn't super expensive, but if people are no longer interested in using it, I would probably let it lapse. If there is enough interest, I have no problem renewing, but thought I would check to see the level of interest that is out there.- Around The NHL 2019/2020
Wouldn't it be a similar amount of work to create a game day thread as it is to make this post?- 2019-20 CFL Offseason

You’ve never been banned You were suspended. If you were banned you just wouldn’t be here anymore. No one has been suspended for an opinion except when what they say is an attempt to troll or they try to push that opinion across multiple threads and derailing those conversations. If you think people that are disagreeing with you are actually attacking you, then report the post. There is a report link on each post. Or you can “not back down”, do what you did last time and get suspended again. Get suspended enough times and then you will be banned.- A Thank You and Shout Out...

It isn’t all that trivial unless you have a tool to extract , decrypt, and re-encrypt passwords into the new application. Otherwise people can’t easily access their account or need to trigger password resets, then you have to hope their registered emails are still active. That is just for accounts, let alone posting history which is what people are most concerned with. Assuming they are moving to a new software package and haven’t had some other disaster event hit, unless there is a migration tool from old to new, it probably wouldn’t be worth the effort to migrate. Keeping in mind you not only need to extract the data from the old database, but then transform it into the new one. Sites like these aren't maintained by developers dedicated to keeping it going. The effort to write and test those extractions and transformation are not worth what you get back for it, not to mention you would be delaying re-opening by days - weeks to do so. Most posters would rather have a site reopen sooner and start from new.- Don Cherry fired from HNIC

There are plenty of "old people to Canada" who don't wear poppies. Why are they immune to the rant. Even worse for them because they grew up being taught the history and significance. If the rant was about "people" not wearing poppies, I don't think the same outrage would be there.- 2019 Finals Pick 'Ems
