I don't recall Flair ever working Liger. Liger came to WCW in late 1991 and worked a program with Pillman. The Great Muta is the only Japanese wrestler I can recall from the late 80's that Flair really feuded with. Stampede was one of the few companies (at least that I had access to seeing) that I remember bringing those types of guys in in the early 80's. ECW did a good job with them in the early 90's and that really helped them get a regular spot in the US.

Past presidents/CEO's may have been involved but who knows? I don't recall them doing this kind of "inside" coverage a few years ago. Even just going back to last year, most of their coverage was a simply cut and past job from previous drafts, with them updating names and a couple quotes: 2013: http://www.bluebombers.com/2013/05/06/blue-bombers-pleased-with-2013-cfl-draft/ 2015: http://www.bluebombers.com/2015/05/12/blue-bombers-pleased-with-2015-cfl-draft/

You've seen it before because that style has been around for a long time. That must mean Rey is a rip-off of Jushin Liger or Ultimo Dragon then because those guys (amongst many others) were doing that well before Rey was.

She said it had more to do with control than anything else. She now has enough stroke that she was able to have it shot on a closed set rather than out in the open like when they did the same type of scene previously. She was quite happy & proud of the scene in an interview I read this morning. She made sure to point out that it was her and not a body double.

After last night's episode we can safely put the "Emelia Clarke won't do nudity" thing to bed.

Your wish has been granted. Wheaties win 8-4 to take the series in 5 games. Next up is the Mem Cup! Nolan Patrick was named playoff MVP.

Someone has been editing it again this morning. The part about him miraculously nursing a bird back to health has been removed.

I thought it was Darren Cameron when I first read it because it was so positive for us. I poked around the blog and saw the guy is from somewhere in BC (no name was given though) so it sounds like a legit outsiders perspective rather than someone who drinks Blue Kool-Aid.

This. Being an official in any sport is almost always a thankless job but you know that when you sign up. If you do your job properly you are invisible but when you make a mistake you're in the spotlight. If that's not for you, then find another job.

The "manufacturer issue" that they are blaming for the jersey delays definitely doesn't help inspire confidence that they got it right.

the Bombers site will have coverage as well as all their social media accounts (twitter, facebook, periscope, etc).

I like this kid already

Yep, people have said this is one of the deeper drafts over the last decade so a high pick last year might not have been so high this year. I'm good with what we walked away with, all things considered.

Sounds like it worked out for both teams. More so for us though because we didn't have to give anything up for guys we ended up getting anyway. I figure we offered up one of our 2 picks plus #19 (I get that feeling because Walters mentioned giving up that pick) so we would have lost out on Loffler if my guess is correct.

This has been rumored for months now and so far it's just been that... a rumor. If this happens, it won't be until after the ufc has their show in NYC. Holding an event in Madison Square Garden has long been a dream of theirs and they have spent millions trying to get MMA legalized there.

And with the last pick of the draft, Edmonton screws up that plan!

This morning Hamonic said the request was due to the health of an extremely close family member. That situation has since stabilized so he's able to rescind the trade request.

His tweet makes me wonder if he got released to pursue an NFL shot rather than because of his performance?

As of yesterday, the local paper in Ft Mac was saying there have been no reports of arson.

You never know with American players coming up here for the 1st time though. I'm sure there have been guys who done that in the past... I'm actually surprised it doesn't happen more often (especially in Regina!).

Here's a quote from when Jernigan left mini-camp: I suppose those personal reasons could have been that he hated it here but that's not how it read it me.

Royal blue with a nice golden horn. Pretty nice combination of you ask me.

In related news, I have a flying unicorn for sale if anyone is interested.

It's actually called the Konami code because you can use it on a ton of other games (not just ones by Konami either). There are still games coming out that use the code, although the "bonus" for using it varies wildly.
