Now if I were President, I would have brought Lucky back on a one year deal. It wouldn't have been big bucks compared to Hollins and Hatcher and he is not the one with the torn achilles. I'm being controversial but perhaps signing Hatcher may have been a bit sentimental and hopeful when at the time...

They have taken a bit of a gamble by cutting Sayles as there was already going to be instability in the backfield with the Lee injury and the departure of JEC. However, as rookies, Kent and Perryman might have been too good to pass up (despite he stellar play Friday, Kent did not have a great game i...

The beauty of having a deep roster and ratio flexibility is they can cover for just about every circumstance without a big drop off,

Except at quarterback.

*laughs*...but then soon wipes the smirk off his face.

My guess is that we won't learn of any BC Lions transactions until the morning. No one is working on announcements now.

The suspense is killing me.

But my Rider fan friend told me Lenius was making $165K. That's a bit rich for our blood.

I wonder if Mgt picks up any QBs off the scap heap after seeing Dolegala and Brice in preseason. I'm not saying they are pressing alarm bells, but one struggled with INTs and the other struggled to put up points. You have to think that they are at least keeping an eye on who's getting released (e.g....

As for quarterbacks, I remain impressed by Chase Brice, especially after a couple of underwhelming performances by Jake Dolegala. I’m starting to think he should be the No. 2 QB. He’a giving Buck Pierce vibes when the lights come on. Jake has got a solid arm. When he's on, he looks really good. But...

Newcomers who made their mark: * Stanley Berryhill III , despite a drop on the first (long) pass thrown his way, redeemed himself. 4 catches for 50 yards and looked very dangerous on punt returns, reversing to the wide side of the field and taking it for a 29-yard return. * Ronald Kent Jr. had a muc...

The "good problem" for me this year is what to do with all our D-linemen? The depth is incredible, at least in the interior. Teuhema (whom I am expecting big things from this year), Banks, Covington, and Robertson (a massive FA signing) are likely to be the starting front four against the ...

Can't thank you enough for your stellar reporting, B.C.FAN. I must say that without it, and Hambone's contributions too, that I would be somewhat lost as to who's doing what. I looked forward to your in-depth summaries each day. They brought me much closer to my favourite team. Well done. :good: DH ...

It's good to get airtime on the market leading station, but the 30-minute postgame show is a major disappointment. Last year, by the time I got out of the underground parking lot next to B.C. Place and got radio reception, Moj and Giulio were signing off their postgame show. There's then no footbal...

The Leos have just announced a broadcast partnership with radio station 980 CKNW in which the city's #1 radio station will carry all home and away games this season. Moj and Giulio return as pxp and colour man respectively. There will be a one-hour pre and half-hour post game show for all games. In ...

Great interview! Thanks B.C.FAN. The interviewer (Hastings?) has a presence and demeanor that puts these guys at ease so he was able to draw some really candid and thoughtful responses to his questions. It's so refreshing to hear our athletes speak from the heart instead of the usual cliches. DH :co...

A nice "sack, scoop, and score" here by Demetrius Taylor when he was at Appalachian State.
