Re: Lions guarantee win over ‘Riders Sunday

I'm a pretty humble person, and a huge Lions fan, and when I first heard this I thought it was a bad move. You always respect your opponent. Even if they buy billboards in your town. Just take it to them on the field. However, after reading the comments here, and how it is a marketing ploy to boot. ...

Re: Eastern and Western Semi Final Game Thread

Just my preliminary thoughts.... Hit Tate...don't take a penality doing it though. D can be ball hawks, as Tate seems to toss it up. Cornish needs to be stopped on the line. I expect a big game from Bighill. O needs to capitalize on chances...use our weapons! Stamps D let some big plays happen. I ex...

Re: Keys to the Game

Well, here's my thoughts on this Grey Cup Sunday for the Leos...just 90 minutes or so before kickoff.... Get the first points. TD would be great, but a FG to set the tone, get on the board, get into the game, and get going! Noticed during the streak Lions get the first points, then are off to the ra...

Re: CFL Playoff Games of November 13, 2011

I think Hamilton is due for a breakthrough. Seeing Montreal finish second, and knowing a trip to the GC via the East Division final will run through Winnipeg and not Montreal is a motivator. Even though they're in Montreal for the semi-final, (does that make sense?) and knowing Montreal is banged up...

Re: Riders 41 - Lions 38, Post Game Stats and Comments

I am very sad, and drowning my sorrows in beers, but proud of the way the Leos fought to the end. Two Miracle passes from Lulay...wow...cluch for sure, and he is our starting QB next year big time. I love JJ as the backup too...helping him out. Clermont....I wished we wouldn't have let him go, but g...

Re: Lions vs. Stamps Game Thread

Hope to use some of the 'silent' weapons so far for the second half such as PJackson. At least the Leos have the Stamps defense guessing bigtime. Just a matter of executing big plays. However, I think the last series by the Stamps woke up a dead horse. Going to be a barnburner of a second half. Haha...

Re: Lions fans at Commonwelth October 17th.

I'm from Hinton. I'll be in section I. Well, I don't have a jersey, but was going to wear a Lions T-shirt over the many layers of clothing. Hmm...too bad to hear Commonwelth is bad for opposing fans. Heck, i'm only 5-6 and hate fighting. I just want to enjoy the game. Just wanted to hold up our sign...

Lions fans at Commonwelth October 17th.

Hey there....huge Lions fan and longtime lurker of this site. I enjoy the reads but don't post very often. I live in Northern Alberta, (grew up in BC) and haven't been able to get to a Lions game in Edmonton let alone Vancouver in my five years out here, and haven't been to a Lions game period since...

Great recaps Blitz and BC Fan. Thanks for the great reads! I like it that Wally stuck with JJ even when it would have been easy to pull him and put Buck or DD in. Heck, i was thinking Buck should have gone in in the third. Shows both DD and Buck they're going to have to earn their way back into the ...

9 hours and 20 minutes. I'm closer to Commonwelth and Mcmahon than BC Place. I hope that changes in the next year!

Ugh! Any other Lions fans in Northern Alberta enjoying Red Green right now on CBC? Just for Laughs is now on after Red. Damn CBC! I want to watch the game! I'm listening on the net, but it's not the same. I wanted to go to the game, but couldn't make it. I'm pissed!

All i can come up with is...like the Blues Brothers...this team is on a mission from god. The focus is unbelieveable. 82 had all the grunt catches in close for first downs, and PJ who had everyone fooled did his thing in the endzone. Great recap Blitz as always. I think this is going to be a great w...

Thanks for the pics Robbie! Saskatchewan can bring that any day! I thought that was a bad move by the Stamps to not let the Gopher into McMahon. Talk about giving a team motovation. I'd use that if i was Danny Barrett...and i think why not create more fun (hopefully it wouldn't get out of hand) in t...
