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.
I didn't have any problem with Omega's appearance - his whole deal was that he could reshape his universe at will, so...sure, giant bone monster, why not?
How easily he was dispatched is another matter. It's sort of what I expected from the episode, but still not exactly satisfying.
"There was plenty of fuss made about Winston Churchill being in Doctor Who, when there's plenty of history to suggest he wasn't such a good guy. And that's always the way."
He added: "Our history of slavery, our way of walking through the world is constantly being re-analysed. So I like to think it's the same on Gallifrey... Omega has been re-contextualised, and the story gets bolder and changes over time.
"We don’t want to repeat the past, we want to push it forward."
This seems like a very odd train of thought, though.

Doctor Who boss defends Omega changes after fan backlash – justifies reinvention
(www.radiotimes.com)
The SNW Gorn literally pulled the classic sitcom "stay on your side of the line" routine - basically the same motivation as "Arena".
I know just the anomaly.
I prefer the goofy-badass-Gorn over the scary-quick-incubatin’-Gorn.
They're iconic for a reason.
The recon is to the timeline and initial encounter with the species
Fair enough - I'll backtrack slightly and say that if there's a retcon, that's where it is, rather than in the Gorn's behaviour.
But there is a bit of wiggle room in "Arena", I think. Kirk certainly seems unfamiliar with the Gorn, but they never really say it's the first contact, and Spock doesn't really say anything one way or the other (a very Spock-like thing to do in any situation).
They definitely have massaged that canon, but I don't think they've really contradicted it.
It's really none of our business...but are they?
Where'd you find it?
