Re: Leos Prepare to Play the Bombers and Game Day Thread

It's going to be very difficult for Sekeres to suck up to Wally in his next on-air interview, but he'll find a way

Re: Eskimos 41 - Lions 22 Post-Game Stats and Comments

I don't post much, but I read everything you guys contribute. This forum is so good....the collective knowledge about the game here is so much better than any other sports forum I follow. Thank-you! Regarding Jason Maas - for what its worth, a buddy of mine is very close to the Esk's organization, e...

He was cut when they released Brooks. He may be still listed, but I do remember seeing his name among the 3 cuts that included Brooks.

Luther Maddy is listed on the D-line and Jovon Olafioye is not included in the O-line. There is still no official depth chart.
What became of Luther Maddy.....I googled and still see him as property of the Lions?

I met Ed Hervey at a non football social event shortly after the Lions won the Cup in 2011. At that time Hervey was Director of Scouting I believe. I asked him what made the Lions so successful. His answer was very simple - "no team in the league can handle their O and D lines". No big sur...
