Star Trek VI is generally considered one of the “good ones”.

Of course, the secret is, they’re all the good ones.

Yes, even that one.

I would probably go with “whatever was the most recent release,” so West is canonical, but his identity as the would-be assassin is not?

Which I prefer, to be honest - having the Klingon be a Klingon helps to reinforce this as a cross-faction conspiracy.

Some traditions need to be upheld.

Some picks were exchanged yesterday, but it’s been pretty quiet.

Well, that was a little too close for comfort. It looks like the Elks might be able to figure something out if their O line improves.

They’ve already passed it unamended.

What do you mean, you’ve seen this? It’s brand new…

Yeah, every analysis of the RCMP I’ve ever seen seems to agree that the elimination of their local policing responsibilities has got to be the first priority.

Willson, a LaSalle, Ont. native who played eight seasons as a tight end in the NFL, performed sideline analysis during Friday night’s game between the Saskatchewan Roughriders and Toronto Argonauts. The 35-year-old later took to social media to post a long, critical note that has since garnered almost 300,000 views.

In the message, Willson called the game “hot garbage,” citing the high number of penalties and quarterback sneaks, Saskatchewan being awarded a point after missing a 33-yard field goal, Toronto’s high number of late-game check-down passes, an overall lack of deep throws, and the Argonauts being short a man on Mario Alford’s last-minute 99-yard return touchdown. He also accused the league itself and members of the media of telling “bold face lies” in order to “protect the game.”

Hell of an analyst y’all found, TSN.

Huh, it’s apparently a Canadian thing. I didn’t even realize.

Quite honestly, it’s not a very common term here, either. One of those things that I see in print, but never hear people say out loud.

This one is pretty average. Not great, not bad?

It serves to establish the time travel rules for new viewers - the past can be changed! Just because you know what 2005 looks like, you shouldn’t assume it will look like that next time you visit.

The Doctor’s edginess continues, turning on a dime to snap at Charles Dickens (and eventually turning back to apologize), and making it clear that he’s perfectly willing to let the Gelth inhabit dead humans - it’s like recycling!

I don’t think the Gelth themselves hold together very well. They’re stated to be gaseous, but they act more like stereotypical “non-corporeal” life forms for the most part. But the climax hinges on them being “drawn out” by the gas from the gaslights, so I guess they’re attuned to that specific mixture, rather than a standard nitrogen/oxygen mix? Not really the sort of thing we should dwell on.

Of course, this episode also establishes the Cardiff rifts, and introduces us to Eve Myles, which will be important soon-ish.

The Bombers took control early, and never really relinquished it. The Lions defense tightened up in the second half and kept them in it, but their offense had a pretty rough go of it.

And hey, we got to see a Big Man Touchdown!

Nice - looks like they also make a root beer and some varieties of iced tea!

Where’d you find it?

Pretty good so far (if you’re a Bombers fan)!

As someone who doesn’t really pay attention to the off season…it’s stunning.

Okay, I haven’t seen much of the week’s games yet, but I did see that game-ending kick return by SASK.

Holy smokes.

Toews is a relatively legendary player with a proven record…who’s pushing 40 and hasn’t played in about three years.

It’s a bit of a gamble, but there’s a lot of potential, and a one-year contract isn’t too risky.

I’d like to know more about the ruling than what’s presented in the article. And I guess I’d need to know more about Canadian defamation law.

Not reading the book is unfortunate (sort of)…but it seems like a person could form a sincerely-held beliefs about a book without reading the thing cover to cover.
