I would say Elimimian re-signing would qualify as a big name.

Tomb Raider might be the best movie (s) that have been based on video games.

If you're planning on going to see Assassin's Creed, save your time and money! I'd give it 2 out of 5 at best. The movie does have some good action scenes but the story was all over the place & had a really weak ending. They also had way too many scenes in the lab rather than in the past. So much missed potential.

This signing was 2 years ago... Brandon necro'd this thread to post the article about Mo staying here in the off-season.

It's questionable who should get credit for Reed. He was signed to our PR less than 2 months after Mack was fired so did Walters recruit him or was he already on our radar at that point?

Correct. As a non-CHL draft pick, Edmonton can send him to the AHL rather than to a junior team.

Nope, still with the big club. He's got 8 points in 23 games so far but has been a healthy scratch the last couple games.

Rich can have a do-over when there's a story about Khalil Bass.

Their DC made $228k USD in 2015 (just over 300k Canadian) so it's possible that it could be in the ball park for a rookie HC up here but I'm not sure what they make these days since those numbers aren't usually made public. If he does well down there, it could open up some doors in the future to bigger schools that pay much better.

Yeah I'm not sure how they chalked it up as a loss just for that show, it might just be the way that article was written. I just read another article that said the total budget was 200 million over both seasons so that doesn't necessarily mean the loss was that much.

Netflix has cancelled Marco Polo after 2 seasons and a $200 million loss. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/marco-polo-canceled-at-netflix-two-seasons-955561

If only there was a way...

I have to wait until Monday to see it.

Incorrect, he was ranked 15th (September 2013), then 5th (January 2014) and then finally 9th (April 2014).

There's a lot of belief that even if this one is doomed to fail, it has provided a good stepping stone for the next association to succeed. Having big names who are still active fighters, was a big coup and should encourage other to follow suit with whatever group comes next. Pettis needs to fire his nutritionist. They were filming Embedded a few days ago & Pettis was chowing down at a steak house. His guy basically said this weight cut went so good & was so easy that Pettis could eat more if he was still hungry... clearly that wasn't the case!

It seems to me the Bombers were set on going OL not picking BPA. The rankings for OL were Duvernay-Tardiff, Foucault, Lavertu, Goosen. The top 2 are NFL players who have never played a single down in the CFL and the 3rd guy went 1st overall - leaving Goosen as the highest ranked OL available. Not quite the reach when you look at it from a team need standpoint. If you're going to mention that he was ranked 9th & 15th, then you should also mention that he was ranked 5th overall in the January rankings.

They had to celebrate their new deals somehow...

It's definitely not just a tool to get a deal for GSP but it's sure not going anywhere at this rate. Cerrone is already backing away, they didn't even tell him he would be a board member, he says he was basically just there to show support. Cerrone won't name names, but says there are people involved he won't work with (that would be Rebney - who Kennedy was publicly criticizing this week). It's got some valid points and big names involved, but way too many issues to be successful. The biggest issue for Pettis missing weight is that his fight was supposed to be for the interim title. They can still make it a 5 rounder but Pettis can't win the belt so it's kind of useless for him. Holloway can still win the belt though so will still take the fight (if the notoriously strict OAC allows it - which they should).

Press conference is at 1pm per Darren Cameron.

Senior is definitely in the range where he should either be a late round pick or gets scooped up as a free agent. NFLdraftscout.com has him ranked 22nd (as a comparison to last year, Josiah St.John was ranked 48th in a smaller draft class for OT's). Auclair will get some looks and we already know Simonise has NFL interest (whether he returns to Cincinnati or not) so that would only leave Ankou ahead of him in the current rankings & I'm not sure how much NFL interest there is in him.

December draft rankings are out. Justin Senior retains the top spot from the September rankings but changes all over the place after that. http://www.cfl.ca/2016/12/08/auclair-skyrockets-december-cfl-scouting-bureau-rankings/

That only leaves the their current assistant GM Joey Abrams, unless they interviewed someone else that nobody knows about.
