Re: Lions vs. Riders

My boss/friend just dropped off his tickets for the game on the 3rd for me to use (with an autographed Dressler jersey to wear .... not .... LOL). Now for the dilemma, I will be up at the lake with my 15 year old and his friend - not a problem, the neighbours can keep an eye on them until we get bac...

Re: Two More Cuts Lions 06/22

Just as long as Wally can keep the attitude in check. Would love to see calm, cool, and collected JoJuan....not the loose cannon I've been hearing about.

Re: NFL Draft odds 'n ends as of pick 117.

Anybody heard of Graham Harrell out of Texas Tech? A co-worker of mine (Texan) just told me that he didn't go in the draft and he was well suited to the CFL. His stats look pretty good on the Texas Tech website. He was bugging me that he was going to put a bug in the ear of the "crotch of Canad...

Re: Ritch Dowrey - 3rdDown in dire condition

You go Ritch! Brian, what a true inspiration and a great friend you are. Pass on my best wishes to Ritch when you see him next. I remember him being a regular on many boards and wish him all the best. He and his family are in my prayers. Tell him everyone expects him at the opening home game!!!!

Re: Rich Dowrey - 3rdDown in dire condition

I just read about this. I don't know Ritch personally, but have posted on many of the same boards as him for many years now and feel like I know him. My thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family. Sometimes I have to wonder about the direction this world is going in. You go Ritch, prove every...

Re: CFL needs your Input for New Rules....

I know this one won't be popular, but throwing the ball away (and not being intentional grounding if it crosses LOS) drives me crazy. I wish there would be better enforcement on the hits on the QB and they have to hold onto it or throw it out there. I think this really reflects a teams stats too wit...

Re: Dickenson Retiring

Oops, I actually thought that he didn't want to go that route yet. I would still love to see him in that capacity. I thought Buck really shone under Dave's training and guidance. JMO

Dickenson Retiring

Congratulations Dave on a fantastic career. I'm glad to see Dave retire before he suffers any more serious injuries. I would personally love to see him as a QB coach for the Lions. :roar: I know that's not likely to happen with his wife and business in Calgary. :bawl: Enjoy your retirement Dave and ...

Re: Tillman charged with sexual assault

Just listened to the press conference. Tillman is effectively on administrative leave for the time being. Although he was charged on the 27th, he did not notify Hopson (or the club) that he had been officially charged until TODAY! That seems wierd to me. Apparently the club was aware of the investig...

Re: Tillman charged with sexual assault

My best wishes go out to the victim and the Riders organization and fans (and Tillman ----if innocent). It appears that it is being handled with the utmost professionalism by the Regina Police Service. Jim Hopson will be speaking on NewsTalk Radio at 3:00 Saskatchewan time from the Green and White L...

Re: Riders Land Clermont - Canwest News Services

Add me in Jason as thanking you for seven fantastic years. I'm sad to see you go (especially to the Riders --- lol). Living in Saskatchewan, it's hard being a Lions fan. I will cheer for the Riders second now because you are now one of them. (It was really hard seeing you in Green on the news last n...

Re: riders poised to sign jason clermont

That's funny. I just heard an interview with Jason on the radio here in Saskatoon that Calgary's offer was appealing as well and very professional. Call me bitter, I hope he goes anywhere but Sask. especially after the beer bowl. If I recall, Jason had some blunt comments regarding the fans behaviou...
