Game Day Chat Room
I'd like something like this. I don't go into the chat room during the game (too busy yelling at the TV) but I'd be interested in reading people's thoughts afterwards if it's not already in the GDT.

Durant's contract - 1.25 million over 3 years (400k in year 1). Nichols got 1.27 million over 3 years also with 400k in year 1,

So Lawless is credible when you use him as a source but he isn't when someone else does? Also in that article, the salaries listed were from Looniecap - not from Lawless so those other numbers could be off. A lot of people feel that Looniecap is very hit or miss (ie: some salaries are accurate but a lot are way off).

Looks like we're tied for 5th... Durant's contract seems to be very similar to the one Nichols got (1.5 million over 3 years - 400k in year one).

Medlock and Bryant restructured deals finalized
http://3downnation.com/2016/02/25/cfl-players-restructure-contracts/ " American players pay income tax in Canada just like the rest of us do but a provision in the Canada-U.S. income tax treaty allows international players who maintain a permanent residence south of the border to be taxed just 15 per cent on any signing bonus – much less than their usual Canadian tax rate.

The second link would be correct. He missed a convert against Ottawa in week 4 & then against Edmonton in week 9.

Getting her point doesn't make it more valid though. She's ignorant to the time/energy/skill it takes to be great at those sports... just like it takes work for someone to become a great actor. In her speech, she said disrespect invites disrespect but then goes and throws shade at football & mma. She should practice what she preaches.

Bombers Off-Season Transactions
My thoughts exactly. The press release says they couldn't come to an immediate agreement... meaning the Bombers need see how much $$ is left once they sign Nichols. Once that's done, it's possible that there's still room for Glenn. In the mean time, they've done him a courtesy and he gets to kick tires around the league to see what other options he has a month ahead of other potential free agents.

My wife was seconds away from seeing this happen. Her co-worker did see it as she was a little bit ahead of her in the skywalk, so she warned my wife not to go any further. Scary stuff.

UFC
He just won the LW belt in November so when exactly was he supposed to defend it? You seem to be confusing it with the FW belt which he has already been stripped of (they took the belt 2 weeks after he beat Alvarez). They re-instated Aldo as "undisputed" champion & had Holloway fight Pettis for the interim belt a month ago. it nearly blew up in their face though because Pettis missed weight and was ineligible to win the title even if he won they fight. Holloway won though so crisis averted. You are right that it's a cash grab though... all titles are though, they really don't mean much since the UFC can name whoever they want champion (this is the 2nd time Aldo has been awarded the belt without winning it in a fight).
