Howdy Gang.

Just wanted to share this with my fellow Lionbackers. I created a children's charity called Making Faces. I use improv comedy to build life skills for children who have aquired a facial difference due to birth, illness or injury.

As a life long Leo's fan I am stoked to inform you that Adam Bighill has joined our charity and is on the board of directors. We met for dinner here in Toronto while Adam was doing a Reebok shoot. He's as great a guy as he is a football player.

Im looking forward to the upcoming season and to working with Adam. :beauty:

Roar You Lions!

Thanks WCJ. No. Not a surprise at all. Just an all around great guy. So proud to have him as a Lion and a Making Faces team member.

All class from Bighill alright, a team player if there ever was one in today's game. Good on you mws for getting the charity started and bringing Bighill on board. Nice to see that kind of effort put to a good cause.

That's great news, and good for Bighill. Funny, because I actually ran into Adam Bighill at Pearson Airport last Wednesday. We were on the same flight from Toronto back to Vancouver. He was waiting at the gate so I introduced myself and said hello. He couldn't have been more friendly. I asked him about the new coach and he said he was excited for the upcoming year, and that there's a new energy around the team. I didn't ask him what he was doing in Toronto but I guess now I know! He was also completely decked out in Lions gear so he's always representing the team, even in the offseason. Glad to hear he's willing to be a part of this worthwhile initiative.
