  1. Really having a hard time watching this garbage. Crap call for the helmet toss. Suspect roughing the passer call. Toronto player fell into him, not sure what he was supposed to do. Now a garbage PI call that was really no different than the call that Toronto had that was ruled a non call. Well at least the command center got it right.
  2. Joke of a call keeps Montreal in the game. Takes back a great Lions return for a TD. CFL wonders why they are losing fans, that is why.
  3. I doubt they do. Women's division is doing fine without her. She would just be a distraction at this point.
  4. So TNA is officially dead. Impact Wrestling to Officially Re-Brand as GFW http://www.lordsofpain.net/news/tna/Impact_Wrestling_to_Officially_Re-Brand_as_GFW.html
  5. Just had my account rep get back to me about the fireworks after the Lions score a touchdown. It was apparently a BC Place decision to protect the turf. Not buying it. It what is I guess.
  6. It looked like the Eskimo players kinda gave up on the play when the flags came out.
  7. Apparently Nakamura couldn't make the event. Travel issues getting over the border or something.
  8. Long is our back up. Waters wasn't ready to go and they placed him on the 1 game injured list. Should be ready to go next game. Long definitely lost us this one. Though the Lions didn't really play well most of the game. Interesting note, it looks like the fireworks after a touchdown are no more.
  9. You totally missed the point. You commented that BC NOW stands for bring cash, which is wrong. It's been that way for 30+ years. Everything in BC has always been more expensive and that isn't going to change. If people want affordable housing they need to move away from the most desirable cities. People used to move to where they could afford. Now some have this entitled thought that they deserve to afford a house in the most expensive cities.
  10. People hate change. I don't have an issue with how the system works, though I don't rely on transit on a daily basis. Compass is far better than the system we used to have.
  11. Now? I've been hearing it for the past 30+ years.
  12. Good on the Lions but they should really do this all season long. KIDS ARE JUST $5 ALL SUMMER! Due to the tremendous feedback around the home opener kids ticket offer last season, and in a continued effort to deliver an exciting football experience that is affordable for families, the BC Lions are thrilled to be able to offer a $5 KIDS TICKET* for children 12 & under for all 5 summer home games in select seating categories. * Children attending the game as part of the $5 ticket offer must be accompanied by an adult. Tickets cannot be used by persons over the age of 12 and will be verified upon entry.
  13. Not sure if I'd call them reasonable. The Agrodome is a really crappy venue. Not that it really plays into ticket prices, though it should. Though that does seem to be the going rate these days for WWE. That would be my guess. That and the added costs of going to the Island.
  14. The first time I saw media reporting on it was about a year before it hit the $1000 mark. So it was definitely profitable at that time. You are somewhat right about mining when the media took a good hard look at it, but there were still ways to get Bitcoin through the mining process with a decent ROI. Even now the re-sale market for miners is crazy. People are still willing to spend a lot of money on miners that are long outdated. I ended up selling all mine except for one of the original USB ones I used. Likely should have just got into buying and selling but I liked the concept of mining and the challenge of doing it. I'm not all that computer literate. The majority came from trading. Though I was always paranoid about trading on the exchanges until I came across Carvirtex, now Kraken. You're likely right about it crashing if those people start cashing all their coins in for money. I can't see the exchanges being able to cover it all. Only time will tell. I also own a bunch of Litecoin which I bought with money when it was trading around $6 bucks. Wish I would have got on the Ethereum train. Trading at $220 now. Was trading at $8 bucks at the beginning of the year.
  15. Not as many as I wish I had if I'd paid attention. Considering my ROI though. I'm doing rather well.
  16. I remember as well. I blew it off when I first heard about it. Didn't care to take the time and learn about it. Figured it was a scam. Didn't help that the media reporting it at the time had a very negative view of it. Didn't really get into it when this thread was made.
  17. I've been a huge fan of The Bollywood Boys for years now. Watching them wrestle in ECCW and in ASW. It's pretty cool seeing them make it to WWE though I do miss seeing them wrestle locally. Though perhaps we may get to see them wrestle in NXT. NXT Wrestling Presented by WWE Live July 13, 2017 PNE Agrodome NXT Wrestling presale starts now!

  18. Apparently he was active 8 hours ago. It's funny I had so many call me an idiot when I bought into the mining and started mining Bitcoin. Even more when I started trading Bitcoin and Litecoin on Cavirtex, now Kraken. I'm not much into reveling but I do like to point out how good it's doing from time to time.
  19. Here is the article regarding El P heading to the UK: http://dailyhive.com/vancouver/el-phantasmo-eccw-uk-wrestling-dream
  20. Perhaps. The guy deserves a shot. He is an awesome in ring worker. Any match he is in is usually the match of the night.
  21. El Phantasmo 18 hrs · Full announcement not quite ready.. buuut it's end of week sooo May 26 @ASWCANADA + May 27 @ECCW will be my last Canadian dates for 2017... Have to wonder where El P where be heading. Can't see WWE, perhaps Mexico?
  22. Yep. Jericho is off to tour with his band Fozzy. Here is the website for Canuck Pro Wrestling: http://www.canuckpro.com/ Some pretty insane cards in Calgary and Langley. Tickets are pricey though. With the talent on the cards, still worth it IMO.
