RIP former NDP leader Ed Broadbent (March 21, 1936 – January 11, 2024).

There should be an option in the poll for "Other" or "Anyone Except These People!". You might know that when I create polls, I never had any outlier selections such as OTHER. The reason being that personallly, I find outlier selections simply too distracting and everybody will c...

Edmonton 37 at BC 26 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27I0Mr74l4w The season opener of what can very well be the worst BC Lions season ever. They team found out the hard way that Danny Barrett was no replacement for Doug Flutie. And the terrible 1991 defence continued to be terrible in 1992. BC 34 a...

Edmonton 36 at BC 37 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfX_Msv-FPY While the Lions had a good 7-2 road record, it was very frustrating and disappointing that they had a losing 4-5 record at home.
