Re: Lions Need To Clean House
If the Lions are going to clean house, they better get on it quick because the Rough Riders already have a big jump on lining up replacements. Maybe they should take advantage of the fact they are in Calgary and start interviewing people in the Stampeders organization because it seems all the promi...

Re: Gettting Ready For the Playoffs
Personally, I will be disappointed if they don't make a statement on Saturday. Here is an example of what I am talking about: 2012 the Lions had 1st place locked up, then went into Calgary on I believe the 2nd last week of the regular season, and got smacked. Technically it was a "mean nothing&...

Re: Who is responsible for the sad state of our team?
Remaining schedules: Lions: vs. SSK, vs. WPG, @ EDM, vs. HAM, @ TOR, vs. CGY. Alouettes: @ OTT, vs. TOR, vs. HAM, @ TOR, @ EDM, vs. SSK Next four weeks, assuming no ties, there is going to be eastern teams losing games which may effect chances of a crossover just a little. Eskimos could still be in ...

Re: Possible Home WSF game?
They probably have to win twice at Commonwealth to finish 2nd, and I just don't see that happening. On a side note, 2nd place has always been such a curse for them. Remember Wally's first year when they lost to Riders on last play Field Goal in Final week, then had to crossover to Toronto? IMO that ...

Re: 1991 vs. 2000 BC Lions - Which team do you like more?
And as a follow up, how improbable was the Western Final win in Calgary? Stamps owned the Lions in regular season that year, and were by far the class of the league, yet they came out so flat. Prime example of how anything can happen when it's one game.

Re: 1991 vs. 2000 BC Lions - Which team do you like more?
2000 all the way. Without question. Not only did it end with a championship, but how many others remember they NEVER trailed at any point in the playoffs or Grey Cup? How many other Grey Cup champs ( that didn't have the bye into Division Final) can say they never trailed at all in the post-season? ...

Re: Centry Link best football Stadium in the world
Best atmosphere? Sure. But not the best stadium.. Have been to both AT&T Stadium in Dallas, and Lucas Oil in Indy. Both are nicer than the CLink. Even NRG Stadium in Houston I found to be nicer... But none as loud as Seattle.

Re: Lions reach a 2-year radio deal with TSN1040
Update: TSN announced today the launch of TSN 1150 in Hamilton. It includes a multi year deal to become host broadcaster for the Ticats.. This is great for the network and that market.

Re: Lions reach a 2-year radio deal with TSN1040
SJ Roc is correct: Radio deals are separate from TV. Edmonton, Calgary, Winnipeg and Hamilton broadcast their games on Corus Stations. Saskatchewan is on CKRM, which I believe is owned by Harvard Broadcasting. Same with the NHL. On a side note, many were confused our station was still broadcasting C...

Re: Let's suppose YOU owned the Lions.....
[quote="Robbie"]A good way to start would be to learn any lessons from the mistakes that the previous owners made and think of a way to resolve those issues so that there won't be a repetition. Repeating a post earlier about how all four previous private owners were mentioned in an article...

Re: Grey cup or Super bowl better party
Has there ever been a home team in the Super Bowl ? They weren't exactly playing at home but the L.A. Rams lost to Pittsburgh at the Rose Bowl in 1980 and the San Francisco 49ers beat Miami at Stanford in 1985. This is correct. Those are closest examples. No team has ever played Super Bowl in its h...

Re: Grey cup or Super bowl better party
Believe Pratt has been to at least one Super Bowl. Niners/Dolphins in Palo Alto I wanna say.. So quite some time. I think the point he always makes, and having been to both multiple Grey Cups and Super Bowls I agree with him, is that Grey Cup it is easier for the average Joe to have a good time. Mo...

Re: Rick Ball Moving to Calgary...
Moj hosts the studio postgame shows, and does a good job of it. I'd hate to see him lose that gig for a few in-game few sideline updates. I don't listen to the PBP broadcasts when I'm in the stadium but I always look forward to the postgame interviews and analysis. .[/quote] MOJ will continue to do ...
