All I know is that there were rumours of drug use at the time he was with BC and that this might have included use of something before games (that is not substantiated). Greene was a truly gifted player who lacked the maturity and ability to stay away from drugs and booze as he admits. He was also ...

I must say that I find the obsession with attendance on this board somewhat puzzling. However, it is worth noting that in the past year, the two largest crowds for football games in Canada have been in Vancouver. This should go a long ways towards countering the often-stated opinion that Lower Main...

They appear to be on a similar pace to two years ago. One would think that there should be a solid final push on the weekend.

Was it not a positive sign for the western final attendance that the Lions drew such solid crowds for their final two meaningless home games? After seeing the attendance over the last couple of weeks, I will be surprised if they draw any less than 50k for the western final. What does everyone else ...

Crowd looked terrible. Yes, please don't waste your time reminding me of the bad old days :roll: . I think that the Lions should simply allow the fans to sit wherever they want in that stadium. I think that 32k spread out through the entire stadium would look better on TV than seeing acres of empty...

So what was the attendance on Friday night? Glen Suitor said that they were expecting 40k but it sure didn't look like that many on TV. It looked more like the 31k to 33k range.

we are not sure why he is snobby! could be that it sticks in his craw that he was relagated to the CFL while big bro was a hit in NFL. Not that I care to defend him at all, but I must admit, if I was in his shoes, as an american, if would probably be a sore point with me. Damon is quite proud to be...

TSN showed Anderson kicking into the net in the fourth quarter. Can the Lions win a Grey Cup with O'Mahony as the placekicker? I don't think so. He can maybe come up with one good game but can't string the two good ones together that he will need come post-season time. Wally must come up with somebo...
