Re: 2016 All Things Lions Marketing & Promotions

Terrible crowed around 16,000 ?? A little over 18k were on hand which was the smallest crowd in years and puzzling given that the Lions have been playing very exciting, winning football. I know that the Als aren't a great draw but shouldn't the Lions, with the type of football they are playing, be ...

Re: Bellefille to join Lions:

Bellefeuille was fired in Winnipeg; he did not leave willingly. His offences have a penchant for giving up a lot of sacks so hopefully that trend won't continue in B.C. Exactly. Drew Willy has been a pinata for the past 2 seasons. How much of that is the result of having poor personnel on the Oline...

Re: Bellefille to join Lions:

I suspect Bellefeuille will be the new Offensive Coordinator. Doubt he's leaving the OC position in Winnipeg to become the Receivers Coach.

Krazy George was really hard at work on that cold October night in 1978.

Re: CFL Regular Season

BC won Grey Cups in 1994 & 2000 by finishing 3rd and having to run the gauntlet through Calgary and Edmonton. Not only that but we've NEVER won the Grey Cup when having to travel farther than Alberta for divisional playoff games. History is not in the favour for the BC Lions playing at McMahon ...

Re: 2015 All Things Lions Marketing & Promotions

Only 19,826 fans on hand for the crucial game against Winnipeg. And this on the heels of an impressive performance by the Lions a week before in front of a season-high crowd.

Re: Bombers @ Lions, Blog, Post Game Stats and Comments

Wondering if Andre Proulx and his crew - either overtly or on a subconscious level - tried to make amends for the blown call against the Bombers a couple of weeks ago against Calgary?? DH :cool: Winnipeg received a huge gift call last week - an interference call against Odell Willis which the leagu...

Re: 2015 All Things Lions Marketing & Promotions

Lions drew fewer than 20k today for the first time since, I believe, 2002. I worry where this franchise will be in another year or two with Braley continuing as owner. Braley hires his people and let them do their work. If anybody is to blame for the Lions' current woes it's Skulsky and Buono. Bral...

Re: BRING IT BACK TO 2012

Keep in mind though that rolling the QB out also cuts the field in half for defenders. I often hear fans complain about their QB not rolling out of the pocket enough but you can't do that on every play.

Re: 2015 All Things Lions Marketing & Promotions

Ravi, now that the Argos have much greater input into scheduling, what do you consider the best days of the week and starting times for home games? IMO the answer to the above question should be of interest to the Lions and their fans because in many respects the markets are similar. Both are large...

Re: 2015 All Things Lions Marketing & Promotions

Also Ravi, what's your read on the mood in the Toronto area about the Argos moving to BMO for 2016? I'm aware that some TFC fans don't like it because of field condition concerns, but do you get a sense that those who at least like the Argos, if not all the negatives of Skydome, are looking forward...

Re: 2015 All Things Lions Marketing & Promotions

Are the Whitecaps being affected by HDTV in the same way that the Lions are (at least according to them)? If so, what is their solution?
