Re: OS99 on Bill Good Show this morning to talk tailgating

FWIW, Brian has always in the past provided a good, reasonable voice to the media in support of tailgating, always done a great job to portray TGers in general in a good light. It was already on Global News last night, so it's not like people aren't already hearing about it. In fact, that media att...

Re: Lions sign two running backs.

Ian admitted on Twitter this morning that he was joking when he hinted he may not be back with the Lions. And he apologized for any misun...

Re: TEAM 1410: Lions new permanent radio home

"Room to breathe and expand coverage" is rubbish. Since this is apparently referencing my comments, I will just say that "breathing room" was my OPINION of this change, and I don't think it's invalid, let alone rubbish. And the plan to possibly "expand coverage" came f...

Re: TEAM 1410: Lions new permanent radio home

1. where does TEAM 1040 say they will reduce the amount of CFL content (other than not carrying the live broadcasts and pre/post game shows)? TEAM 1410 is part of the same operation, not a competitor, with TEAM 1040. It behooves 1040 to continue to promote interest in the Lions as the company ultim...

Re: TEAM 1410: Lions new permanent radio home

Received a tweet from one person on the matter and this is the way he feels about it: the two stations are affiliated. It's really NOT that big a deal. Same broadcast crew, pregame, postgame. That in a nutshell is how I feel about it, we may as well adopt the new station and move on. It also sounds...

Re: TEAM 1410: Lions new permanent radio home

Exactly ... LFITQ . Any station can step up and say they will give you 6 hours of air time for a pre & post game shows, along with the actually game broadcast. It's the additional exposure on non-game days that is so important to potential growth in your fan base. When you're no longer the &quo...

Re: TEAM 1410: Lions new permanent radio home

we live in a country where ultimately, the NHL reigns supreme. The TEAM has to cater to their biggest market. C'est la vie. Maybe, but does TEAMALLKANOOKALLTHETIME have to cater to "their biggest market"? No, of course not. They do for a couple of reasons, both obvious. One - money/sponso...

Re: TEAM 1410: Lions new permanent radio home

Well, I'm still going to listen to TEAM stations for their Lions coverage. If I have to choose between TEAM 1040/1410 or nothing, I'll take the TEAM. Canucks fans get annoyed when 1040 talks Lions for any length of time. Lions fans get annoyed when the post-game isn't long enough, and so on. It seem...

Re: Paris' stupid celebration

I don't think the TD celebration was a big deal...kind of lame, but then that's an issue with the style, not the fact he did one at all. :roar:

And that TD did give us the lead at the time.

Re: Attendance for Saturday

We'll be missing the game due to family Halloween activities also....almost had daughter convinced to come to the game (in costume), but it's not going to happen. An afternoon game like they're having in Hamilton would have been purrfect. Or if it had to be Halloween night, it should have been hyped...

Re: Disgraceful officiating CFL is bush league

What is especially frustrating is that every time there is a blatant NON-call (hits on our QB's, the PI's, etc.), the other team's fans will squawk about and point out the MTL game. I think we've repaid that supposed debt many times over already.
