Re: Alessia Cara to perform Freedom Mobile Grey Cup Halftime Show

Thanks ZLions. It's great to hear the perspective from someone who is Ambrosie's "target market". You are the future of the game, if it's to have one (after us old fogies retire to our rocking chairs).

Re: Games of Week 17, October 5-8, 2018

i'm thinking as long as this o-line under Dorazzio can't run block or pass protect then it doesn't matter who is QB . Everyone seems to blame JJ10 but no run game , dropped passes, too many penalties is not all his fault and I can't see this team finishing strong in the stretch It looks like more O...

Re: Alessia Cara to perform Freedom Mobile Grey Cup Halftime Show

Looking back over previous halftime shows: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Grey_Cup_halftime_shows 2012 was probably the most ambitious attempt at being all things to all people. Bieber was part of a package which included him doing 2 songs, One-hit-wonder (but very current) Carly Rae Jepsen 2...

Re: Alessia Cara to perform Freedom Mobile Grey Cup Halftime Show

I am 56 so don't normally find young musicians like her until after the fact. I find a lot of new music by looking them up on Tunefind after hearing them on TV shows I watch. Modern artists I do follow include Lana Del Rey and Lorde, but they make the kind of music I have always enjoyed. (When you l...

Re: TiCats 40 - Lions 10, Post-Game Stats and Comments

But still, the logo stuff was not wise in the past nor on Friday in Hamilton, even if there was no disrespectful intent. We should have considered that it could be interpreted differently. I'm relieved it will no longer happen on opposition team's logos on their home field in the future. We can do ...

Re: TiCats 40 - Lions 10, Post-Game Stats and Comments

I see one of the Lions dancers was David Mackie followed by a rather half-hearted attempt by an unidentified rookie. http://3downnation.com/2018/09/28/cfl-starts-fake-twitter-beef-teams/ It's astonishing that this was done so casually. You can tell that the TiCats players were intent on getting maxi...

Re: TiCats 40 - Lions 10, Post-Game Stats and Comments

Watching that was like a typical BC playoff game the last few years (except for the 2016 Western Semi win over WPG). A thorough ass-kicking. One thing though, both EDM and WPG have been going through similar inconsistent play as well this season. Who were the two Lions depicted doing their logo danc...

If TOR loses next weekend @ BC, that will just about ensure a Western team crossover.

Re: Lions aquire Tyrell Sutton from Als

Farhan mentioned on 1040 today that Sutton will be joining the team for the first time this Saturday in HAM. He has a lot of personal things to tie up first at his MTL home and is still nursing his quad injury anyway.

Re: Manny Out for the Season

If Manny is seriously contemplating a comeback this season after surgery, I'm sure it would be against all medical advice. (As LU alludes to in his tweet).

Re: Lions 35 - TiCats 32, Post- Game Stats and Comments

I most enjoyed seeing the HAM players and coaches prematurely celebrating with 1:46 left in regulation.

This is the CFL, not the NFL. Going into OT, they looked already beaten.

Hopefully their funk carries over to this Saturday.

Re: Games of Week 15, September 21-22, 2018

1. Why 3 games on Saturdays these past two weeks? I dunno about the 'why' but I don't like it either. Being a bit of a Luddite in some ways who doesn't PVR (I have a b & w t.v with rabbit ears! -- kidding), I find there's no way so many (nine) consecutive hours can hold my attention. That's a s...

Re: Lions 32 - Alouettes 14, Post-Game Stats and Comments

As Farhan is saying right now on 1040, the D will face a real test over the next 2 weeks vs Masoli and HAM overall (it wont be Pipkin self destructing this time). Could bring them all back to earth with a thud.

Re: Our Leos Head East to Play Montreal and GDT

Manziel is openly complaining about being the backup to Pipkin (after missing most of this weeks practice to stomach flu). :popcorn:
