As everybody knows, the Lions will be introducing a 3rd jersey on the 19th. Most of you probably have seen it, however, this poses a very intriguing question:

Who's play has been worthy of being enshrined on the back on my jersey, without being too repetitive (Dickenson, Simon, Printers), keeping in mind that I already own a LION82 and a BJ jersey.

I've narrowed it down to the following:
Javy Glatt
Paris Jackson
Ryan Thelwell
Otis Floyd
Charlene

I'm going to say Ryan Thelwell...but any of them would be worthy of having their name on your jersey

Based on the years ahead of them ... Jackson and Glatt are solid and safe choices.

But I went with Floyd ... clearly an underrated player who is enjoying an outstanding season. The speed he showed on the TD saving tackle on the missed FG was impressive.

Ahh "Buck" the trend .... go with Pierce!!

Or you could even enshrine one of the unsung heroes on the Dline or the Oline. When was the last time you saw someone walking around with an Angus Reid jersey? Think of it - you could be an original.
Now that I don't live in Quesnel do I need to change my handle??

I have an old black Lions jersey, that, when I get enough free time which right now looks like some time in August, 2009, I fully intend to get made up in Jamie Taras' honor.

That said, I'd agree with charlene. Can't lose with any of them, I'm inclined to go with Thelwell.

I would almost say the same thing, but add that he also saved us on another missed FG saving tackle in another BC Place game. His a Carl Kidds acceleration to the player with the ball are a treat to watch.

My theory is I go with a great Lion of the past (I.E. Hebeler). Why? Cause whenever I don't that player seems to sign elsewhere or get traded...

But hey, that's just me... I say the Thelwell!

Brent Johnson is the man. When I first got to Fanfest, first thing I did, put an order in for a white Brent Johnson jersey............It's slowly but surely being covered in Felion and player autographs.

PJ's catch on Friday night was definitely a thing of beauty, one of those plays that turns a man into a star, a la JC's catch on 2nd/18 in last year's WDF. It seems as though it'll either be PJ or Otis.
