Ouch.
Rider fans will unequivocally prove that their team is in fact Canada's team
I gotta give them that.

Nice work, Sir.

You've created a monster.

My most significant reason for being pessimistic is that Wally cuts vets a year before their best due date. Kato has been with the team for a long time. I sure hope he is not one year before his best due date. What would our LEOS be without him. Can you image Kato signing with the Riders and then becoming Geroy's assistant team ambassador. :thdn:

My top ten reasons to feel pessimistic about 2015 from the least to worst.

10. Andre's will revive Baby Duck and it will be the Official wine of the BC Lions.
9. In order to spare hurt feelings, every team will be allowed into the playoffs. All participants will get a ribbon, all will be declared a winner and a new cup built of lego will be disassembled at the end of the season so that each player can have a piece of the trophy and to avoid those costly welding repairs that the current cup requires so often.
8. To keep up with the metric system, every time the ball is placed, the position will given in both yards and meters
7. Our new prospective head coach will verbally agree to terms but will change his mind on the way to the airport and sign with another team.
6. Ben Sankey will be added to our negotiation list in 2015
5. The new commish will be a Conservative Party of Canada insider.
4. The Clubs season ticket holder database will be hacked by North Korea who will then apologize and undo the hack.
3. Mayor Moonbeam will convert all available parking spaces in the area to bike lanes and racks.
2. BC Place will be renamed by its newest sponsor as the Kinder Morgan Oil Palace. All season's ticket holders get a complimentary specimen jar of extra thick hair gel along with a promotional
commemorative book entitled "The Lion, the Bitumen and the Broke O".
1. Rider fans will unequivocally prove that their team is in fact Canada's team

Great stuff SP, very funny!

The Andre's Baby Duck line was the best!

Don't feel bad. None of the rest of us are too sure about TLK either.
Tell me how long must a fan be strong? Ans. Always.

Shhh! I've been called many things in my 50-plus years as a Lion fan, but pessimist isn't one of them.

No chance of Kato signing with the Riders. Do they have fresh sushi in Regina ?
