Re: Ticket Prices / Lions' Marketing

Low attendance, based on my experience, is based on a few things. First, the cost. As a recently graduated student the prices for tickets where I can actually see the game are quite high. The alternative is paying money to get a view where its difficult to view the game when I could watch it on HDTV...

Re: Lions Needed Change from Buck Pierce

I am, and was, happy to see Buck go. While I have nothing against Buck personally, I cannot state strongly enough how much he is a stupid and selfish player. While he finished this game, he has missed far to many over his career. I mean, how many has he missed the last couple of years? While many p...

Re: Bench Lulay

I'm starting to worry about Lulay. He is no longer that young or that inexperienced, and I don't see him progressing much. The more I see of him, the less promising he looks. I could be wrong, and he could turn it around, but it all seems pretty iffy right now. You're wrong. He's had 16 games.

Re: Bombers 30 - Lions 17 Post Game Stats and Comments

One Grey Cup in nine years. With superior talent. No input of fresh ideas from outside his own student coaches. No Xs and Os mastery of his own. Leaves the motivation to the players themselves. Shaky personnel decisions. Shaky game management. 8 and 10 in 2009. 8 and 10 in 2010. 1 and 6 in 2011. Ne...

Re: Bench Lulay

Lulay, while young and inexperienced (16 starts) is not the problem. You're going to have growing pains with a young QB and who around Lulay has stepped up to take the pressure off of him? Simon. Who else? Not Chapdelaine with his lack of running for 3 games. Not Buono by starting so many rookie WRs...

Korey Banks Post-Game Comments

The team mentioned this afternoon some comments Banks made after the game blaming the offence and such. I've been searching for those comments without any luck. Has anyone else stumbled upon them?

Re: CFL Playbooks

I just think having access to old CFL playbooks is great for high school and community coaches. One of the most difficult things about coaching football in BC (and Canada) is the lack of support resources. Because the fundamentals are the same between leagues finding resources there is not difficult...

CFL Playbooks

I've been looking for cfl playbooks for a bit, and have had no luck finding any online. There are a plethora of NFL/NCAA playbooks available, but it doesn't seem any CFL ones have made it online. I'm looking primarily for defensive playbooks (and positions groupings). Does anyone have any, or could ...

Re: Alouettes 16 - Lions 12 Post Game Stats & Comments

One thing that has bugged the hell out of me the past two games are the 2nd throws that are thrown before the sticks. My initial inclination is to blame Printers, but the routes are cutting off a yard or two before the first down line. Let me give you an example. 2nd and medium and we ran all curls,...

Re: For anyone who still thinks the combine isn't important

Yes, if an O-lineman does 3 or 4 bench reps than yes, the Combine will matter for him. That's like saying, if the player punches out a coach during the interview process, it will affect his draft status. Otherwise, it makes up about 10% of the evaulation process. Its about indicators, what to look f...

Re: TSN - Lions will not renew QB coach Steff Kruck's contract

Wait wait wait wait...

They haven't renewed the contract of one guy. Does this mean that Chap isn't seeing the door? This is one move. In a few months you can talk about scapegoating, not right now. This may very well be one move of many, who knows? Lets wait and see before jumping the gun.

Re: Canadian Writers Take on the Grey Cup :(

Wrong network? Clearly this guys a moron, I'm sure I've spent as much time on a reply as he did on this piece. What an idiotic comment.

As for the ads, he must LOVE Monday Night Football, I'm pretty sure half the game is advertisements.
