I so totally hate the uniforms worn tonight. Almost turned the game off in disgust.

Time to dig out that old b&w CRT TV.

Both teams are playinng a lot of basic zone defence. I’ve only seen one blitz, and that was on a Calgary running play. The B.C. first and second-team O-lines are playing well, other than the one time Andrew Peirson was beaten for a sack that was negated by penalty, and the low snaps by Hunter Stewa...

Hunter Steward’s low snaps are causing trouble for Apodaca. They throw off his timing and reads.

Yep, they should just stick with him at tackle or guard.

Seems to be a lot of slipping and sliding by the Lions out there.

The Special Teams appear to have improved. Penalties are few which is nice.

Was the TSN broadcast piped into the concourse last year? My memory fails me.

Why would these 2 teams wear orange and red? Like really?

(Yes, I am ornery this evening)

My wife wholeheartedly agrees with you.

White and Rutley ... Smurf Power.

Reilly making the RPO look productive.

I hope we see him stretch the field tonight though....like a lot.

I want to like the orange jersey and pants combo....But I can’t! I just can’t!

I am guessing that Reilly will play a half. With Lloyd still out, it leaves us painfully thin at QB in a game the organization wants to win. Apodaca and Kraemer (who's had one week to learn a very complicated offence are the back-ups). Thanks to Ambrosie's vision of starting the season early, we wi...

Just an update on my jersey saga. The Lions have taken the jersey back and refunded me my cost (including shipping.) . It doesn't look like the lions are planning on changing anything in the short term. Also note the Calgary Road jerseys have the exact same issue and they are stil selling them. A f...

I think it will be tough for them to find a better TC facility than TRU. The main reason is everything they need is all right there on the campus. Kamloops' weather is also a huge plus. When they used to train down on the coast they seemed to lose the odd session to rain. Prince George can come clo...

Lions have apparently re-signed Anthony Thompson. So what the hell is going on? To play his old safety position? Termansen not going to be the field side corner afterall? https://3downnation.com/2019/06/04/canadian-db-anthony-thompson-re-signs-with-b-c-lions/ I don’t think Chris Ackie has been pick...

We briefly chatted with Godber during the mix and mingle and he was not a happy camper. His injury certainly seems to be playing on his mind. It could be he was feeling disappointed and frustrated at not being able to fully participate in TC and the injury is progressing as well as expected. He wasn...

We decided to make a last minute trip to Fanfest and certainly glad we did. It was the hottest place in Canada yesterday at 33 degrees but the wind was moving through, making things comfortable. It brought back great memories of growing up in the Okanagan. Fanfest is plainly great fun for kids. We w...

Hillside Stadium and the Tournament Capital Centre make a great combination within a short walk of TRU residence. I hope camp stays there indefinitely. I'm looking at real estate in Kamloops. For 18 days or so, I can attend training camp. For 10 home games, I can drive to Vancouver. I might even ma...

Like some, I had my reservations about Hervey when he was hired. They stemmed mostly from the controversy of his Edmonton regime; the blocking of media and fostering what appeared to be a bias against fans. His churlish demeanour only seemed to be amplified by those actions of reducing access; his a...
