Many are looking forward to seeing Dolegala throw the ball but I personally don't see him getting a lot of game day reps with V.A. being the starter barring injury. Could be more succession planning at this point with Dolegala being only 27 and Adams 31. I believe Dakota Prukop will be the busier of...

No mention of Beau Baldwin being added to the Calgary coaching staff with yesterdays football ops announcement. Could be it wasn't high enough on the pecking order to be mentioned although I thought it was a step in the right direction for Jake Maier when they announced it a few months back. Things...

I was wondering which injury or event pushed the Lions over but can't recall an extended stay on the one game that would have caused the issue. Couldn't find it but thought Dom Rhymes was moved to the six game list which would have made even more space given his contract. Even V.A. was on a team fri...

Can you translate that into layman's English Don? For whatever reason I can't figure out what you're trying to say. I was making reference to the portion of the player compensation package exempt from the SMS. While contract details remain highly guarded information Tim White was one who was said t...

Still appears to be lots of love for Lucky with a nice rant and highlight reel of last season from Dr Phil on the Lions sub forum at CFL.ca. Some kind words from Alexander Hollins as well interviewed at the CFL content shoot in Hamilton. Says he still has the speed. Hopefully he is working out and r...

Sounds like the Lions need do more "marketing" and it would be nice to see the totals in that column to have an objective opinion of the compensation.

With the early Monday game followed by the Saturday, Friday schedule they have the pre season wrapped by the end of May with roughly equal rest for all teams heading into the season opener which was likely the target they set. Tells me that the teams still want to play the games and given the lack o...

TSN announcing they will only be televising two exhibition games including an Elks vs Lions Friday night game. Sheds a little light on the lack of interest when only 2 of 9 games are aired and must have been something agreed upon during the last negotiation for broadcast rights. Hopefully CFL+ will ...

Interesting players perspective on the power rankings with the Lions ranked near the top of each prediction. Bit of a shot from Eugene Lewis whose Elks were consistently in the lower ranks. A couple of direct comments of higher expectations for William Stanback sounded promising. Staying healthy is ...

Mentioning early season play taking time for teams to gel made me wonder if it is a coincidence Winnipeg plays Ottawa twice in the first 5 games.

When the CFL went from a 16 game season with 4 pre-season games to 18 games and only 2 pre-season games, it felt like now we have 2 pre-season games that count in the standings. That said, I don't really have a problem with the current 18 game set up, but I just have to accept the fact that early s...

Great to see Shawn Lemon go out on his own terms albeit surprisingly after signing an extension with the Als back in December. It makes Montreal an even more logical landing spot for Betts if it doesn’t work out in Detroit, especially with their other starting DE from last season — impressive young...

Interesting roster addition with Joe Beckett. 6'4" linebacker.

Reminds me of the old expression there are always two reasons for most things and one is usually a good reason. Measurables are easy to point to as a basis for a decision. Many said the Philpots were too slow. Herdmans got the same rap at their combine. Not every wide out in the league is a burner. ...
