  1. Just a reminder that this is set to hit the Commodore Ballroom next month:
  2. Yeah it did. I figured I missed something, apparently creative just said f it.
  3. Well this explains what happened with the shield: - It appeared on this week's RAW that Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns had split up as they didn't appear together and now have their own theme songs. Word coming out of RAW is that there is not going to be a formal split between Reigns and Ambrose but they are supposed to be going their separate ways. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Creative is such a joke for them to just fizzle out they way they are. What wrong with them staying as The Shield and getting a singles push as well?
  4. Wasn't a fan of Beck at all from what I saw. Missed a good portion of the game though. Partridge showed promise. Now that I'm hone I'm gonna have to watch the entire game on the PVR, liked the look of a lot of the young guys from what i saw last night.
  5. Don't watch a lot of UFC these days. I've never seen a post fight presser that didn't have Dana White, is this something new? Or was White pissed off about attendance? I heard that Rogers was about 80% full. Which is better than it was looking, but I assume many of those were deeply discounted or given away. After the Rory fight fans started filing out and by the end of the last fight, Rogers was apparently pretty empty.
  6. Apparently not: CFL players ratify new collective bargaining agreement with league TORONTO – The CFL Players’ Association has voted to accept a new collective bargaining agreement with the league. The union said in a statement Thursday night that its players voted to accept the five-year contract reached Saturday with the CFL. “It’s a YES!” offensive lineman Peter Dyakowski, a player rep with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, tweeted. “We’ve got a new CBA! It’s time to get back to football! #Everybodywins.” The CFL’s board of governors is scheduled to vote on the deal Friday and the expectation is they’ll accept it. The CFLPA didn’t provide a breakdown of the votes but a majority of players – 50 per cent plus one – on six of the nine CFL teams was required for the deal to be accepted. The players voted in favour despite many expressing their unhappiness publicly and on social media about the deal. It offers a $5-million salary cap in the first year of the agreement after the CFLPA had originally sought a $6.24-million cap. Last year, the CFL’s salary cap was $4.4 million. The CFL also got the players to agree to its gross revenue formula that would trigger the renegotiation of the cap or entire collective agreement. The players, who initially wanted the CBA to include revenue sharing, wanted the cap or entire agreement renegotiated if league revenues increased by more than $18 million – excluding the Grey Cup- in the third year of the deal. But the union ultimately agreed to the CFL’s figure of $27 million. The union did get the option year on CFL contracts eliminated, excluding rookies. Also, the players’ practice day, for the most part, remains at 4.5 hours but can be increased to a maximum of six hours while teams will hold just one padded practice a week during the season. Toronto Argonauts players met Wednesday night to discuss the agreement and centre Jeff Keeping, a member of the union executive, said good questions were asked. “I’m happy the guys have all the facts,” Keeping said. “I feel at the end of the day the guys are more informed than they were prior to that. The mood is mixed. Guys are entitled to their own opinion and every man is going to make his own choice.” © The Canadian Press, 2014 --------------------------------------------------------------------- There's gonna be a lot of pissed off players with this going through.
  7. I can see why very few people watch TNA, this crap's painful!
  8. There's a RAW coming up in Portland? Can't find anything on it.
  9. Always thought they should have done a One Man Gang type gimmick with Brodus.
  10. Did Sandow pinch Stephanie's ass or something? What the hell are they doing with him?
  11. That's definitely a big part of it. Tickets going for as low as $44 buck https://www.fanxchange.com/ufc-174-tickets/vancouver-rogers-arena--formerly-general-motors-place--2014-06-14-3-pm/ufc/403422/?afc=103
  12. Give him a chance to get access to it and confirm friend requests, I'm sure he'll have thousands.
  13. Doubt it. He'll either live out his days in PC or the other inmates will love him because he took out 3 of the "enemy" What a waste, they should have killed him. Would have been much cheaper.
  14. Take him alive and spend $100's of thousands of dollars on trials, "mental health", prison care, etc. Bullets are a lot cheaper, this nut job needs to take one to the head. Hopefully a few to the body first so he can suffer.
  15. From what I've seen on his Facebook page, he's gonna take out as many as he can and go down in a hail of bullets.
  16. I couldn't imagine what they are going through right now. I know what I'd be doing though. I'd be sticking good and close to the gun safe.
  17. Last info I heard was that he was in a forested area. Likely setting up perimeter and waiting til daylight.
  18. WOW, that was creepy. I haven't heard about the flight until I was reading your post, then all of a sudden there was a report on BC1 about it.
  19. Gun control is not the issue here, this guy was obviously a whack job. This is a mental health issue. It isn't all that easy to acquire a PAL. They do a background check, call references and call you before they make a decision. We don't even know how he acquired the firearms. Let's get some facts before we start jumping to extremes.
  20. Maybe I'm missing something but i see maybe 2 pictures that could be considered cop hating. Also, whats with so many people having public profiles?
  21. UPDATE: Moncton RCMP are one again reminding people to stop posting police locations on social media, as they believe shooter is following that. RCMP Emergency Response Team from PEI has arrived in Moncton to assist in the search. Apparently he is watching social media
