We knew we were due next in the rotation but this should be an outstanding week with Amar Doman leading the charge. It’s been a fantastic first season with him as owner and I can only imagine what ideas he has in mind.

Good article from Business in Vancouver of the Lions hosting with new COO Duane Vienneau saying the initial plans include making full use of the Vancouver Trade & Convention Centre.

I am going to really go out here on a limb here and personally guarantee that Amar's Grey Cup Committee will announce the Grey Cup Half-Time show more than 2-weeks in advance of the Championship. :rotf:

OTOH, maybe this year's Grey Cup organizers figure the target audience for the half time show can't maintain enthusiasm or interest more than 2 weeks out from the event. Hence, the last minute announcement. :wink:
