    Lost in the golden shower of information regarding Trump's alleged acts of treason is news that he wants an anti-vaxxer, who believes they cause autism, to head a vaccine safety committee.
  2. Sunseri had fewer years in the league and fewer pass attempts at that point than Davis has now.

    This was how I saw it. I understood what she was going for her, I just thought she shouldn't have said it. Gave off the "elitist" vibe she was trying to downplay when she was giving the background of some of the actors in the audience. My $.02...eloquent speech with one unfortunate throwaway line.
  4. If he wants to play football, he'll need to be accepting of a reduced rate. He might have some value left as a guard, but I think his days as a tackle are over.

    I'm not sure why she added that part about football and mma. It added nothing to her speech.
  6. Helle deserves his share of blame on that goal. Trouba screwed up, but it was a pretty soft one to let in.

    Sweden had a weak group to play against in round robin. The US was the best team and deserved to win.

    The Florida AG that Trump bribed to shut down the investigation of Trump University is going to get a nice job in the White House now. Funny how that works...
  9. Hasn't he already agreed to take less money next season? http://www.cfl.ca/2016/05/29/report-henry-burris-to-return-in-2017/

    Prices for this event have gotten out of control and hopefully the embarrassment of all those empty seats will force Hockey Canada to adjust their pricing. Best case scenario is for ticket prices to drop and for the tourney's to go back to smaller cities.

    Imagine how good the US team would be with Eichel & Matthews as their top two centres, and Hanifin & Werenski as their top D pairing. The list of eligible players the US & Canada have in the NHL is crazy. In comparison, the Russians have one eligible player in the NHL & the Swedes have none.
  12. ...and very weak American talent. Just a top to bottom awful team. Neck & neck with 2009 as the lowest point in Bomber football for me.

    That's not what I've read happened. They turned the Jays down originally b/c they thought they could get more. The Jays moved on and spent that money elsewhere. By the time EE & and his agent realized they couldn't get more, the Jays money was gone and he had to go elsewhere. At least that's what Steve Phillips & Bruce Arthur are saying. Most of what I've read was that he wanted to be back. Seems like his agent misread the market and the Jays mgmt moved on too quickly.

    What changes are you talking about? Also, could you define what the swamp is.
  15. Brandon Stewart was in the league for a few years before Mack. And why is Jamayel Smith highlighted? There are a few of the highlighted guys where you've been pretty generous with the "very good" career label.

    Yeah, Werenski has been outstanding so far this season. I'd vote for Laine b/c I'm a homer, but they're both having great years.

    The Americans have such a messed up system. The people with those votes have way too much power.
  18. You've reversed the meanings of "buyers" and "sellers" markets.

    Might boost his confidence if he has some success against kids his own age.

    I love this tourney. Too bad the Oilers are being selfish and not letting McDavid play...

    It's the Trump surrogate argument; hear something bad about Trump, yell "SQUIRREL!!", and hope everybody shifts their focus to that instead of the original topic. And holy crap, is her very slight speech impediment considered a disability?
  22. That is interesting. I didn't know they were brothers. Rich and great athletes. Their teen years must have sucked...

    Lol, ok... Generally not, no. Do you really believe that the PEOTUS doesn't have a higher standard to keep than a comedian? Or that arguing, "yeah, well they do it too" is a good argument?
  24. sweep the leg replied to Rich's post in a topic in General Discussion
    Comparing Trump's lack of experience to Obama is nonsense. Obama was a US senator with a law degree. Also nonsense is the comparison of a candidate for POTUS to a comedy show. As stated in the post above, who needs to hold the higher standard should be obvious. The fact that it's not for a lot of people is troubling.
