Robbie do you write for these guys? http://www.oursportscentral.com/services/releases/?id=3889890 Actually this appears to the original source — see page 4. That would seem to be the original source alright. :) Does Robbie even watch the games? :wink: Go Jarious. Go Lions. Get Wally that win. Get i...

Lions coach and GM Wally Buono is one win away from tying the record for most head-coaching wins in CFL history. But Buono says it's the people he's worked with and the relationships he's formed over the years, not the historical significance the wins may represent, that's of real importance. I thi...

Buono stands on the verge of CFL history One win away from tying record By Ed Willes, The Province August 21, 2009 Lions coach and GM Wally Buono is one win away from tying the record for most head-coaching wins in CFL history. But Buono says it's the people he's worked with and the relationships h...

Nice article by Lowell Ullrich on Jarious Jackson. A scouting report on Jarious Jackson as a CFL quarterback would read no differently than a big league baseball pitcher before his prime. Substitute Jackson for, say, Nolan Ryan: Great fastball...will be devastating if he can develop an off-speed pit...

Jackson needs to be a soft touch Pivot's ball velocity has receivers going through gloves at equally fast pace By Lowell Ullrich, The ProvinceAugust 21, 2009 A scouting report on Jarious Jackson as a CFL quarterback would read no differently than a big league baseball pitcher before his prime. Subs...

Great article by Mike Beamish about a team first, character guy, a soldier you would want next to you in battle. “Here’s a guy who was put down,” Buono said of his starting quarterback for tomorrow night’s game against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. “I don’t want to say we didn’t embarrass him, we must ...

BC Lion Jarious Jackson showed true character, channeled his anger By MIKE BEAMISH, VANCOUVER SUN August 20, 2009 It was a rip in their relationship that could have turned into a rift. But Jarious Jackson got a grip on his ego, swallowed his pride, and didn’t allow it to become a gulf. That which m...

Perhaps Buck should watch some tapes of Doug Flutie, who was the master of avoiding being hit. He seemingly went through entire games without being touched. He'd get the ball away quickly, then cower his body away from the hit...or just run or backpedal away from the pass rushers. Flutie and Emmitt...

Paris Jackson won weekly top Canadian honours for the second time on Tuesday in recognition of his six-reception, 122-yard, two-touchdown performance last Friday against the Argonauts, both TDs coming in the second half of a 36-28 victory with Jarious Jackson at quarterback. Paris is "La Ville...

Paris Jackson lights it up B.C. Lions’ opponents can no longer key on just Geroy Simon By MIKE BEAMISH, Vancouver SunAugust 18, 2009 VANCOUVER — For the B.C. Lions, one man’s pain is another man’s gain. Again. Twice this season, Lions quarterback Buck Pierce has been concussed in a game. And in bot...

At 32, Jackson has only a small surgical scar, about an inch in length, at the base of his right thumb, to show for all his years playing top-level football. And it was a freak occurrence. Jackson tore the ligaments on his thumb on his first snap as a Lion during a preseason game in 2005. “It’s the...

Jarious Jackson looking out for No. 1 By MIKE BEAMISH, Vancouver SunAugust 17, 2009 Jarious Jackson has made a career of avoiding serious injuries as a quarterback. As the only 100-per-cent healthy B.C. Lions pivot at the moment, he will start Friday against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. It’s not beca...

An interesting softened stance from Wally in today's Province after the harsh condemnation of JJ on Sunday. As reported by Lowell Ullrich: "I told the team today how impressed I was with how [Jackson] handled the adversity," the coach said. "How you handle adversity shows more of wha...

Dayum.

Times are tough when you get no respect from the bookie.

Favored by 8 but not picked to win. Ugghhhh.

A lot depends on Jarious. I hope he is encouraged to go for it by his coaches. Not to play it safe. Not to be as conservative as Wally would want it.
