Re: Lions ownership discussion thread
Mr Braley's not selling and this is his goal. 1.Grey Cup rights for Vancouver in 2021. 2.Expansion fee for the Halifax team (1 million per team) in 2021. The speculation is that Saskatchewan will be given the rights for 2020 in November.Hamilton will probably be told to wait till 2022.So this should...

Mini-Camp Roster Info
Any chance the Lions will produce a mini-camp roster now that said camp has past.
Just curious on potential new Lions that were looked at.
Can we lift the cone of silence?

Re: Questions for Ambrosie?
I’m in favour of trying an earlier start, I too find that the off season seems to go on forever. FYI dtrain, they're not extending the seasons (save the extra bye week). They're just planning on changing the start/end dates. So the off-season then will be the same duration - just in different month...

Re: Football Operations: GM Ed Hervey, HC Wally Buono and the Coaching Staff
The posters stating the team is skimping on scouting have a very valid point and the issue requires some self examination on The Lions part.I understand the front office has a budget that requires adherence but the team is putting itself at a major disadvantage with it's current practices. - Why are...

Re: Football Operations: Ed Hervey - GM, Wally Buono - VP and HC
Quick thoughts 1. Torey Hunter - probably named as director of US scouting(currently with the Eskimos-hired by Harvey) This would be an astute move for the Lions, hurts the Eskimos, well connected in western US college circles(FBS,FCS,D2,D3) and would help shake things on the personnel side. 2.Rick...

Re: Lions ownership discussion thread
This long term lease talk is most concerning and putting the next owner in a precarious situation. Does the league have any recourse to stop Mr.Braley? Can they just extend for a year and see what the situation looks like in November 2018? Mr.Braley and the Wetenhall's should be applauded for their ...

Giving The Signal
The 2018 regular season is winding down and two home games remain(vs Edm, vs Tor)on the schedule. Does Mr.Braley make an appearance at one of these games to further fuel speculation of an imminent sale? perhaps making an appearance on TSN 1040(in the days leading up to the game) providing a cryptic ...

Is Wally Staying around in 2018?
I was wondering if anyone can confirm the information in this article in The Montreal Gazette in regards to WB's contract status.Is this a personal services option(marketing/meet-n-greet) or does WB stay as GM for the 2018 season? Does WB stay to right the ship in a hands-on/lawnchair mode from the ...
