Can't disagree with any of these choices but I'd also like to mention TJ Thorpe. He is the perfect receiver for the Lapolice offence. He actually gets those first downs on the short throws. I love watching that guy play.

I distinctly remember a "DE-FENCE!" chant spontaneously breaking out that year. The atmosphere at Canad Inns was incredible when the defence was on the field. They were so exciting.

******* O'Shea and his shorts keeping this from being a sellout

Yeah I have a hard time placing that game at the feet of Nichols. The bizarre Medlock fake punt and the defence have as much or more to do with it. That said, Nichols did throw a pick at a really bad time and he has to wear that.

Nichols QB draw final play of the game for the victory

Well if we aren't going to argue about **** like this then why are we even here???

I'm sure they didn't look better in their 8 losses last year than they have in their 7 wins this year.

I'm surprised that ROH draws thousands in Chicago. I watched their show on FOX a couple weeks ago and it looked like it was 200 people in a community centre.

Especially when he is using such an absurd argument like "Well at Draisaitl's age Scheif wasn't even in the league." Well I guess that means Sean Couturier is a better player than Scheifele too.

Well they finished 10-8 and in 4th last season as opposed to this year when they are 7-0 and alone in first. I guess we'll see where it all shakes down by the end, but they look like they are far better this year.

It is certainly not unique to football. Steroids are pretty common in general. I'm also of the opinion that they aren't necessarily that bad for your health but that's a different discussion. Around the time I graduated from high school, a lot of the guys who were really into weight-lifting started dabbling in steroids. It's natural to be curious about them, especially when lots of others around you are doing them. When we switched from the high school gym to a local public gym... wow. It was like everyone there was on steroids. I think the most important thing for you would be to educate yourself first, before talking to your son about it. It is a pretty nuanced issue and "It's against the rules/it's illegal" isn't a very convincing argument against doing anything, IMO.

Oilers fans are the Riders fans of the NHL... completely ignorant of anything in the league that doesn't involve their team

The argument isn't who was better at the same age. The argument is who is better right now. And the answer is Scheifele.

I'll be honest, I follow WWE wrestling pretty closely and I only know who Omega is because of TUP mentioning him. Maybe I would have heard of him otherwise when the big matches with Okada were going down. I'm not sure. I've just never been interested in the indies. So I guess the real question is how many wrestling fans there are in Winnipeg who are interested in more than WWE. Because if you are a fan of ROH or NJPW then you certainly know Kenny Omega.

You gotta be a pretty hardcore wrestling fan to know who Kenny Omega is. Or to watch ROH, for that matter.

Based on what? Scheifele had the better season and he wasn't playing with McDavid. End of story. Maybe someday Draisaitl will be better but he's not yet.

The best damn bag carrier in town by the looks of it

It was pretty obvious that Draisaitl wasn't nearly as good without McDavid. He's a 5-6 million dollar player who happens to play on a line with the best offensive hockey player in the world.

Adams can definitely fight for extra yards, who have you been watching????

Where are these stats ????

I feel like the events over the last 4 years have been very well-attended. The card looks awesome for the upcoming show. It will sell out for sure. That is, the lower deck. The upper deck is always closed off for the house shows here. Like a moose game. So I guess like 8000 people? They would easily sell out the whole arena for a PPV event.

That's just ridiculous.

If I was sick and unable to communicate, I'd want someone to keep the people who care updated. In Ric's case, there are millions who care.
