  1. It enhances my bedroom performance and then I fall asleep right away. Win-win. To me it's not about any drug's ability to be a performance enhancer; it's that it's illegal in the eyes of the NFL. I look at simply as breaking the policy. If your actions are in contravention of said policy, then you pay the price with whatever punishment fits the crime so to speak.
  2. Reminds of when Shampoo's shot deflected into the stands and killed that young girl.
  3. No dammit! He has to be Chris Pronger or this is an epic failure of a 3rd rounder (you know the round where top pair defensive stars are born).
  4. I guess Goose forgot about his teammate Reggie Jackson's act.
  5. I'm not really a fan of Shapiro either. I was more or less saying that Heffy thinks all managers are incompetent and should be fired. I don't know much about Shapiro but he hasn't exactly endeared himself to the Jays fan base so far. Though I do think his hand is being forced by Rogers too. That said, if it sounds like a crappy job, don't take it.
  6. People are just against change. This is a change that should have happened in oh um 1985. You know, when the freakin' thing was built.
  7. Unrealistic fans expect linear development. So when a player doesn't perform from the start and that slump prolongs, the sharks circle.
  8. It's really not that funny any more nor was it ever all that funny to begin with.
  9. They were doing 12 hour fasts to start. It was a good 7-8 years ago and honestly, the amount of workout talk around the office reach nauseating levels and I my memory of what they were doing isn't the best. But I can tell you that by the last 2-3 weeks leading up to the show, they were both consuming no real food and nothing but potions and cocktails containing who knows what.
  10. I think you underestimate yourself in terms of dietary strictness. You really aren't that far off. I have two female coworkers who did a figure comp a few years back and they had to do similar to fasting, carb cycling etc etc. The worst part about it for both of them is that it kinda messed them up internally. But anyways I didn't chime in to lecture you. Keep up the good work. I used to work out a lot in my younger years and helped me physically and mentally be a better person. Then I got together with the wife and like most people, the workouts tapered off as we like blame things like a shift in priorities (laziness with a fancy excuse).
  11. I haven't followed this thread but for some reason I clicked on it and I have a question for you. Are you doing this for competition prep?
  12. Thing is, RBs in the CFL are ageless. Look at Jerome Messam. He is 30 which is old for a RB and he was very effective for the Stamps. Harris can easily be replaced.
  13. I don't get it. Aren't teams that revitalized their fan base supposed to capitalize on it? Like the old saying, strike while the iron is hot. Yet this off-season has been so lack luster it's pathetic. Something just doesn't seem quite right.
  14. Has the CFL ever discussed not spreading their games out over the bottom end/start of the week? Thursdays thru Mondays is too much of a spread for a small league. Would much prefer a NFL like schedule with maybe the feature matchup on Friday night and then all the other games on Saturdays? Reason being that it would give fans something to get excited about knowing that Saturday is CFL day or something as such. Right now it's all over the place. I never know what day the Lions play on anymore and it was hard to keep track during the season too. My wife and I are former season ticket holders but stopped going because the schedule was too inconsistent; especially during the summer.
  15. I agree. The Panthers are an exciting team to watch and a big part of that is due to how awesome Newton has become. It's nice to see emotion. In this case, it's pure joy and fun to watch.
  16. It's immaterial. Shinkaruk won't be coming up any time soon anyways.
  17. The fearsome 3 winger line! Don't worry about face-offs or anything important like that.
  18. It's purely sentimental to keep Burrows around at this point. Higgins doesn't produce but doesn't hurt the team defensively yet everyone wants to punt him asap. I would like both of them moved along.
  19. Glad to see that you don't expect much.
  20. He traded a pick that turned into Jamie Benn. That is not the same as 'traded away Jamie Benn'. More like traded a chance to draft Jamie Benn before anyone knew he would be any good. But keep slinging crap.
  21. Well up until the past two years, the Canucks haven't had anyone in the WJC tournament even worth mentioning. So everyone who is getting their knickers in a knot over the performances of two of our rookies is quite premature.
  22. To me it's a team stat. Play on a bad team and you will likely be a minus player. Play on a good team and you should be above 0. If you play on a good team and you are a minus player (or vice versa), then that provides meaningful context.
