  1. Im just curious but why is it when you dump players to waivers you have to be within 10 points of the new player you pick up BUT when you trade to people in your division you don't have to. Shouldn't it be the other way around?

    Anyway' date=' I don't think you should be able to trade for the sake of losing either BUT it should have been stated in the rules from the beginning. I say we should do this the democratic way and put it to a vote.

    Looks like this could be a tight race for first.

    Naslund & Koivu, pick up the slack guys!!!! And when the hell is Bryan McCabe gonna be off the freakin injured list, it seems like every week Quinn says he may be back in a few games. [/quote']

    I agree with you Caspien. It was just an oversite during the time we were making the rules. Neither myself or anyone else caught it. Because of that I decided to allow trades as long as the players are both active and did not apply the 10 point rule. So no trades for retired or season ending injured players.

    There are many rules I would have liked to tweak but in fair play have not suggested it. It;s not perfect but I think still enjoyable.

    We are trying to have a fun pool but at the same time keep it competitive. We can learn from the glitches this year and iron them out for next year.

    Somethings I would like:

    -Have the 10 Point system for both waivers and trades.

    -Have the rules state - No trading Retired or Season injured players to avoid this situation again.

    -More waiver pickups. Many teams went through them so fast.

    or

    -Every team draft an additionsl 3 to 5 players and use that as their own personal injured reserve.

    Just a few ideas and i'm sure many people will have more. We can hammer it out over the off season. As for now lets just keep the course as it is.

    I think thats a fair trade off, your allowed to firesale but not retired or injured. Fair enough.

    Now down to business who in my division wants Saku Koivu he's got some pretty sucky stats only 36 points.

  3. I predict this is Peyton Mannings year to win the Super Bowl. Now that he has the undefeated season pressure taken off of him and people are talking about their weaknesses, he'll be fired up to prove everybody wrong.

    AFC Semi Finals - Indy by 21

    AFC Finals - Indy by 3 against Denver

    Superbowl - Indy by 30+ against Washington

    Peyton Manning will break every QB record know to man (except QB rushing) He will be the Wayne Gretzky/Michael Jordan of football. Marvin Harrison will be the Mark Messier/Scottie Pippen.

  4. I'm rooting for Booche at this point... who is this Caspien with 3 posts anywho? I'm guessing someone got a dummy account so they could have two teams. :P

    Nope, I normally frequent this site to find out about shows and on the rare occasion I will make a post. If you want proof of this I actually have an account under the same name on Jamhub.ca.

    Oh...

    and by the way....

    YOUR ALL GOING DOWN!!!

    And your no exception BOOCHE!!!!

  5. Before ya'll vote Green, remember to do your homework on them. It's my understand that they are a very Right thinking group, that has adopted a "Green" stance to try and pull in a lot of the Environmental sympathetics that may otherwise be voting more Left...

    Just some food for thought.

    This is why they should be included in the debate. We need more people critiqueing their platform. If they are right leaning then Mr. Layton will make sure that it's loud and clear. From going through their website I haven't gotten the opinion that they are right leaning but you could be correct I haven't taken an extensive look yet.

  6. Hey All,

    http://www.petition.greenparty.ca/en/

    Sign this petition to include the green party in the 4

    nationally televised debates.

    By no means am I a strong supporter of the green party

    but that doesn't mean I wouldn't consider them. My

    problem is that nobody will openly critique there

    platform because all other parties want to downplay

    their size and seriousness by ignoring their

    existence. Yes they do not have a seat in parliament

    yet but they did have 5 % of the vote. To me that

    justifies, at the very least, a chance to be heard.

    PLEASE EMAIL THIS IF YOU SUPPORT THIS CAUSE.

    AND PLEASE DISCUSS THIS TO KEEP THIS POST AT THE TOP OF THE FORUM TOPICS

  8. That's crazy because I had the exact same situation when I arrived at work yesterday. I was locking up my bike and this small black bird with a blue patch of feathers on his back was struggling to get on its feet. He leaned his body against a bike tire in exhaustion. As I watched wondering what I could do to help I thought the same thing as you, how beautiful yet disturbingly sad.

    Because I had a lot of work to do I let the building security know and they took care of it, hopefully they did all they could to help it.

  9. I was using the epson R200 at work and just recently purchased the newer R320. The quality of prints is really good. The reason we bought the R320 was because the rollers on the R200 kept on getting stuck and you had to give the disc tray a little budge but it still works today, its just a pain in the ass sometimes. As far as I know you do have to use their program to print (I could be wrong) because it controls the rollers to pull the tray in. So you have to convert to Jpeg or Gif. For price & quality colour prints this is the only option on the market, that I know of. We use it all the time. One other thing to remember, ink is very expensive and it takes 6 different colours so you only have to replace the colours you use. Each cartridge is around $20. Although, it should come with full cartridges.

  10. I just called the marketing department at the Docks in Toronto and suggested that they show the simulcast of phish's last show in their drive-in theatre. The issue that they have is that it's a weekend and they would have to draw enough cars to cancel other movies that weekend. They know who Phish is and how popular they are but its kind of late notice to change the schedule BUT if they get enough interest they could do it. Everyone should call them and let them know how much you want to see this and how much support they could get if they showed it in an outdoor theatre. The phone number is 416 469 5655.
