  1. absolutely constructive. what i should have said instead of employee would be contractually obligated. as for appearance fees you are most likely correct that it is in his contract. i'm pretty sure any extra appearance fees would be minimal(for a high stakes gambler anyway ) since he is well compensated already.
  2. actually on page 3 he sees the light and accepts he was wrong
  3. Was I right that it's a conspiracy film claiming the American gov't was responsible not Muslim extremists?
  4. In any Casino i've ever been in you have to table a hand so the eye in the sky can see it to claim any part of a pot. This includes Omaha and you have to table all 4 cards even though you only use 2 of them. Hope this answers your question.
  5. Is this a conspiracy theory that states the government was behind 9-11? If it is that's just stupid and preposterous. If it's not give us more info before i spend my time on it.
  6. I agree our health care system is used way too liberally. Remember a few years ago when there was a meningitis "outbreak"? People were flocking to see a doctor to get checked out even though they had no symptoms of anything let alone meningitis. The media in both countries make something like this seem like it's inevitable you will contract it when in fact it is so rare you shouldn't lose any sleep over it. People act like the system is free but we all pay for every doctor's appointment everyone makes. My motto is if I'm seeing the doctor it better be worthwhile.
  7. like education the general public is brainwashed into believing that the answer to the problem is to throw more money at it. While this make the people in these sectors happy it does nothing to help the problem. Here in Canada we spend more per capita right now than ever & yet waiting times keep rising. There has to be a better way to deliver these services without bankrupting the country & I think this movie will start a more meaningful discussion and cause the public to ask some tough questions rather than just take a politician or health care or educator's word for solutions.

  8. QFTI don't really need any announcer to tell me what's going on just don't spout stupid things or get in the way of the action
  9. I would agree he was most likely promised Lou's job when he retires since there would have been more attractive places to coach than NJ. He must have some ambition for a GM otherwise why wouldn't he have taken the Calgary job.
  10. I don't mind them. The tandem I hate is anybody with Greg Millen. His color makes absolutely no sense then he sees the replay and still insists what he said before is what actually happened even though it wasn't.
  11. Rule#9 is exactly correct. once you muck your hand without declaring something to the contrary there is no longer a showdown therefore the only live hand wins & he can show if he wants. This being said I will always show my hand just in case i missed something being declared that the dealer picked up because if he says something was declared it's final.
  12. LOL you actually forfeited half the pot to that hair brained ruling? That just mind numbing stupid ruling.carry on
  13. do you have a mental disorder? dillusions of grandeur? This kind of idiocy is probably why you were almost voted off this island( i didn't vote btw). You remind of a three year old that has to be the center of attention - good or bad doesn't matter.How some random internet jackass can say these things is mind boggling to say the least.
  14. Lol, sounds like some serious shyt. Is this a fantasy league for Junior hockey? That's crazy
  15. The EPT is basically sponsored by Pokerstars. Daniel is a paid spokesperson for Pokerstars. They are most likely paying his entry fees into Pokerstars sponsored tournies therefore he will play on the EPT. He will most likely also do FT commentary a la Greg Raymer if he gets eliminated from the tournament. I can't see him also getting an appearance fee since he is basically an employee.
  16. Steve SmithBill Ranford is correct I thought the Chicago watch meant he actually played for the Hawks
  17. DN why don't you start a thread to discuss your new venture or do you not want to spill the beans yet?
  18. DN gave his sidethe OP realized he was wrong & apologizedEND of discussion
  19. How can you vote for Bush again? Is he changing the laws on term limits?
  20. would make a very interesting show
  21. Thanks for the link DN. Very interesting.BTW what's with the survey i just did? you should start a thread to discuss that
