Thanks, I was trying to think of something to say to Mike, but it was pretty tough.

As long as they're doing a combination of both, and not going overboard on the gaming, then I agree that it would be beneficial.

Thanks Dee. I hate our reffing over the whole CFL. I think we all feel the same way that we wish the ref's would just let the players play instead of all these damn calls. Is it just me or does it seem to be getting worse?

Playing games with your kids is fine. But no one is losing weight on this unless they are playing it ridiculously long. Sorry. There's more then just walking around a bit to help you lose weight. You have to eat properly as well. Also, the benefits of walking only work if you're are walking continuously, not stopping every 5 minutes to catch a Pokemon. I'm not saying playing this game is all bad, I'm just saying that there isn't enough evidence to support everything people are touting. I'm guessing most of the posts are BS of the health benefits. I was a kid once too that use to play games, and I used to tell my mom BS answers too as to why I was playing for so long "oh it's so good for hand eye coordination" and all that. But don't try telling me that after one week of playing you've gotten these miraculous healing benefits. I get mental benefits from playing games too...until it gets boring and I drop it and I go right back to where I was before. As someone who deals with depression myself, I know that, yes, getting out is a good thing, but once this games gets boring, they'll bounce right back to where they were before. To truly help your depression you need to get to the root of why you're depressed, and work through it, not play a game that makes you forget your depressed for a while. And just wait till they stop playing the game...unfortunately some will drop deeper then they were before. It's the same with losing weight. Unless you keep up with the walking and exercise once you're done with the game, you'll need to keep up with it or you'll just go right back to gaining weight again. Until something has been proven to last a long time and you've done long term studies on it, don't give me these "health benefits". If you want to play a game, then man up and say it..."I'm addicted to this ******* thing and I don't care what you think". Don't walk around saying "Ooooh I play it because of Health benefits" (which was my original argument). Come on...pull my other leg.

I bug a lot of people at work about it. Plus I've read a few reddit pages where people were asking why they play it so much and most people's answer is that "it gets them out of the house".

Yeah, I don't think you're understanding. The common answer to "why the hell are you playing that stupid game" is "it gets me out of the house". They then go on to explain that getting out of the house means they're doing a lot of walking and interacting with people which is what I'm saying BS to. I've read some crazy things of people wanting to come into your house, going into your yard, some idiot walked off a cliff apparently, idiots playing it while driving or biking, etc. The stupidity goes on and on.

^ Exactly. Getting you "out of the house" doesn't mean you're interacting with others nor does it mean you're getting any exercise. I can play Pokemon from a car.

Well it was partially a joke. I meant more like what 17 said. There are tons of big olinemen cast offs from the NFL, NCAA, etc... Why is it so hard for us to get a couple of decent ones?

How can they not find decent Import Olinemen? The US is filled with tall fat guys.

If Kent Austin is ever available, we need to take him. Although I'm a little worried about his heart, but otherwise I'll take him.

That's his gear from the Planet Hulk storyline where he gets sent into space by the Illuminati and ends up on a planet where they turn him into a gladiator. He eventually wins everything and overthrows the overlords of that planet and gets married and has, I believe, 2 kids. They're going to merge that storyline into Thor Ragnarok.

Watched Star Trek Beyond today. I actually enjoyed the film. I hope they continue the series in this manner because it was a LOT better then the previous 2 IMO. And I wasn't a fan of either.

Both WW and JL trailers give me hope for DC's future. And of course Suicide Squad. Really, the only trailer out of the bunch I didn't like was kind of the Lego Batman movie. Robin just seemed to get really annoying as the trailer went on.

That's the biggest BS line that everyone who plays Pokemon says.

Fire O'Shea and you not only lose your HC, you lose your STC. So you have to fill 2 roles.

NATE!!!!! I'm gonna kill you man. Here I am, reading the whole thread until I come up on the fact that you DUG IT UP FROM 2014!!! ^^^ THIS! I only saw your post after I realized this was a friggen 2 year old thread.

It's sad that you just don't get it.

One more...

And the penultimate combining of Marvel Netflix shows...

As much as I don't want Lapo, even as interim...to be fair to him, he was fired after we had 7 of our main starters injured. I mean, he went 10-8 the year before. It's unusual for someone to just fluke a good season. And it sounds to me, if he's not allowed to choose the QB, his hands may be tied elsewhere as well.

Tank them both. Walters and O'Shea are both at fault. Bringing in 1 big play receiver is great and all, but how many new QB's did they bring in this year or last year? 1. How many International Olinemen did they sign that were big and good? How many big defensive players did they bring in? Yeah O'Shea probably cut a couple of potentially good players, and his coaching is obviously under par, but they are both to blame. Walters does do some good, but he's nowhere where we need him to be as far as being the main GM. He's good at the Cdn talent but his recruiting skills end there.

For me, O'Shea and Walters go hand in hand. Get rid of one, get rid of the other. If you're going to do it mid season, do it soon so we can try and salvage what's left. I know a lot of people won't like this idea because of what happened in Montreal (although I think he was used as a scape goat), but bring in Higgins for the rest of the year and see if he can turn things around. At least he's had winning seasons in the past. Plus, he's the only person I can think of that might be available to bring in mid-season.
