We wouldn't beat Saskatchewan today. Maybe not even Ottawa. The worst quarter the Lions have played since 2021.

Kick off at 4ET/1PT, same time as game 2 of the Jays/Mariners series. This has the potential to set the record for lowest in person attendance and lowest TV ratings. Thanks to a CFL double header rescheduling the game is not an option.

That fake punt attempt is some vintage 2021 Rick Campbell brain fart call

Re: Giving up the first round pick. Sure you love to have a first round pick, but chances are the Lions will pick 7th or 8th in the first round. So with how the draft works, they would pick second or third in the second round. The net difference is not huge in terms of what players would be availabl...

Which head coaches do you think will be unemployed when the 2022 season ends? Personally, I think Craig Dickenson is done in Regina if the Riders don’t win a home playoff game. But even winning the WDSF at home may not be enough. Dickenson’s future likely depends on the Riders playing in the Grey Cu...

I don’t think Vernon Adams is an insurance policy in case Rourke goes to the NFL next season, mainly because I think any opportunity to head south in 2023 ended with his injury. Adams could be insurance in case Rourke is not ready to play in 2023. More importantly, Adams gives the Lions the best cha...

@Hambone, is this where I say I told you so? LOL. Although I thought the trade would not happen for a few more weeks. I like this move. It says to me (and sends a message to the team) that the Lions believe they still have a Grey Cup contending team in 2022 and are not going to flush that opportunit...

Starting on our 20 (or worse) after every punt return all year doesn't help either... And they start on their 40. It’s been this way all season. That’s a 20 yard advantage every series. If a team took 20 yards in penalties on every drive they would never win a game. Yet we spot our opponents exactl...

Let’s not panic. 2 points would have been nice, but was not game we needed to win. We still have a 3 game advantage over Saskatchewan (4 points plus the tie break) and we are still two games up on Calgary with a chance to own the tie break if we can split the back-to-back games coming up in a few we...

I too briefly thought of Michael Reilly but only for a brief moment as that was too painful to watch and it seemed that the OC called far too many deep balls that weren't connecting. This team seems better prepared in all facets. I also wondered if Rick Campbell was now asking himself if he should ...

If you look at the 9 CFL teams, only two (BC and Winnipeg) have had outstanding quarterbacking so far. Even the venerable Bo Levi Mitchell is average at best this season. Trevor Harris may be playing better than many expected, but he’s not exactly lighting la belle province on fire. Fajardo has been...

I honestly don't see that or any other trade being possible. Montreal will be in a playoff battle right to the end with as legit a shot as anybody in the East to advance to the GC. I can't see them moving VA who is very much beloved by his team mates. Don’t underestimate the ability of Machocia to ...

More than anything I feel gutted for Nathan Rourke. Sure, I was starting to think BC was going to host the WDF and possibly win the Grey Cup. Both of those seem impossible now unless both Winnipeg and Calgary collapse in the second half of the season. But for Rourke, who was at least going to get a ...

Was listening to Saskatchewan radio of today’s game while doing some yard work. Holy homer, Batman… their pxp guy must be on the Rider payroll. I know there is pressure on CFL radio announcers to be cheerleaders, but Michael Ball makes Rod Pederson sound like an impartial observer. At least I can wa...

Duron Carter reunited with Chris Jones? That’s gotta be a sign of the apocalypse!
