  1. I just have NO time for the mainstream, 189. But I accept whatever I find enlightening &/or interesting, might put me in a minority. Sometimes the rarity in something, is a large portion of it's overall value. Won't speak for younger people, but suspect many of them are busy doing things they see that others might find worthy. In a mass-com world, perhaps people are more easily swayed from their preferences, interests & opinions(?).
  2. Yes, the ELC-controlled, potential star holds too much allure, it would appear. Now hearing rumblings of maybe Byram in a Hall pkg..prob just noise. Avs are sodamn flush with top youth, imagine they'll have to sell off some of it.
  3. There was some interesting discussion in this thread. Obviously now, it's great we swung the draft wknd deal to land JT Miller!
  4. Absolutely..& they risk future credibility by vociferously amping up their opinions/volume, to attract listeners in the moment. Like teen crack heads looking for a better high, & wrecking any faith the fanbase may construct.
  5. Hmm..what about my April Proposal where I suggested, let's get JT Miller?(Tanev was main part of pkg) Not even one person in Asia seemed to care about my nice prediction! :^)
  6. Apparently has his best shifts when BOTH coaches simultaneously kick his arse. Never panned out..KHL for this bloke
  7. So they miss the call, to rig the deck But they send him to the dark room to legally protect their diabolical NHL entity-@$$. #riggeddeckleague at it's finest
  8. Episode 396 dealing with the Epstein/P Andrew scandal, & accusations from Giuffre. Focus from Brit media, particularly on the New Mexico location. & of course, the Clintons stop in! Shocking crap, but important to document.
  9. It's nice to know we have some sizeable, capable depth, when required. Hope Big Mac keeps progressing, & is our 4th liner next season.
  10. St Loo must be feeling their injuries..bit of a downturn.
  11. Quit the game..became a hard drivin' rock singer in a band called KeppenWolf!
  12. Who cares, cos' the markets KEEP CLIMBING, eh?! Long as them upper crust keep enhancing profits, folks can just snooze in their(indebted) autos! Just keep the printin' presses rollin'..we can have fun-money for all! ***********Whatever U Do...DON'T question the system itself!**************** 250 TRILLION in global debt is NO BIG DEAL!
  13. Today(& yesterday's) Duran programs(ep: 394 & 395) have been covering Cdn foreign policy, & quite interesting insights, for this here Cdn ex-pat. On Trudeau removing Freeland(enter Champagne), a 21 min episode, I particularly enjoyed analysis(from 2 Alexes) from about the 10:00 ~ 15:00 mark. Great stuff. Hope some CDC'ers give it a whirl.
  14. Nahh, I think Tree will be much more than that. Look fwd to his return(touch wood)
  15. Appreciate your perspective, & you raise some valid points. This title thing may well be worth a tweak.
  16. It's interesting, eh? I reread your post(prev page), & their analysis of The Duran. They'll often bandy about terms like(right, left leaning; conservative, liberal, etc...) all these general categories, dumping sites/shows into various bins to match their desired definition. Who's pov do they serve? Almost every news segment(for yrs) from the west, I have spent time considering, I've found to be agenda-biased, absolute BS. I respect you took the time to quote this source, & appreciate your effort. Trouble is, I hold almost zero trust/regard for almost all sources, western. Like Gerald Celente calls the NYT.."The Toilet Paper of Record!"(indeed, they're embarrassingly agenda-driven today. A once-great publication) I wonder what this "Media Bias/Fact Check source says about that spiraling entity. & as others have mentioned(upstream this thread)..people will believe what they wanna'. I firmly believe in/advocate collecting info from a variety of sources, then deciding for oneself what one actually feels is accurate. Your experiences, instincts, upbringing, values & education should naturally play a role in shaping the information you discern to be important, and/or accurate. As per my own definition(stated herein), I'd regard that as sensible, natural, & worthwhile, lifestyle/experience, which ideally would be universally available. In reality, I'm sure the vast majority of us hoi polloi are influenced by 1,000 shades of propaganda, in various forms. & so it goes...
  17. Step 1: Sign Jacob.. 5 x 5 2: late-Dec, Tanev, 2020 2nd, 2021 2nd(cond) to TO, for their 1st rounder, Cody Ceci & 2021 3rd cond: IF it's a top-10 2020 1st, they get the two 2nd's. ************************* Canes doing well in January, but gt trubs********************** 3: Demko & Sutter to Canes for that TO(Marleau 1st rounder), & a depth 'tender Then we go on an unlikely run to the Cup. TO's pick wins the lotto..massive, profitable fantasy! In short^above 2 deals ensure we get the Laffs 2020 AND 2021 1st rounders. That'd be sweet
  18. If we keep recycling a lump..I'd imagine it usually just withers to dust. But the gambler in me says keep trying, & one day the final product might be an astonishingly unearthed gem. As 50 contract rosters get deeper(yrs of top drafting), such lotto tix probably become just an amusing side-hobby...
  19. Well(just woke up here, Asia AM) to me their analysis is real. I've found their discussions/angle/criticisms on matters like western media/Big Govt as pretty darn consistent with other's(that I respect) opinions on similar matters. Did you dig up that info on the Duran from Wiki? Can THOSE opinions within that text be trusted? As stated, I've heard others online denounce Wikipedia(as well), as a place where info can be manipulated. So again, I see it as an interesting news/analysis online(almost daily) show that I enjoy. I can only recommend something. Folks can categorize these things as they wish. To each, their own. Our time is precious, for each & every individual.
  20. Actually no, that's quite alright. All opinions should be welcome here. I've watched it a number of months, & frequently found info provided by the two Alexes, as consistent with other sources I respect. It may be that the provided opinion/ 'definition', has an axe to grind with the content..perhaps it has hit too close to the truth, for liking of the PTB. I've heard sources like Wikipedia have often been discredited. I frankly haven't found western media sources as very valuable for quite a long time. Being in Asia, I'd like online sources that I feel are dependable. & lastly, soapbox? Speak for yourself, my friend. Merely recommending something one considers worthwhile, isn't my definition of a soapbox. Perhaps we have preferences for different dictionaries? At any rate, your opinion is as worthy of my own..have a good day.
  21. This dumped, smouldering pile of mulch is indeed in a snowballing quandary, of humonGOUS-big proportions. & as folks have mentioned, media is certainly complicit, helping serve up this sh**-sandwich to the misled Hogtown hoi polloi. 'Dem ****ers trolled us over the two Lo/u contracts, amidst other childish antics. This revenge dish served, will match the coldness of the coming eastern arctic-winter! Sell Maple Fleas, (good luck) with pricey merchandise resembling bargain bin quality.
