My guess is that we won't learn of any BC Lions transactions until the morning. No one is working on announcements now.

The suspense is killing me.

My thoughts too. Team might blast out a Tweet but might want to wait until CFL HO confirms everything first.

I've seen two different takes with one saying 10pm EDT and the other 10pm Local Time. Either way I think those are the deadlines for the cuts with teams likely going through the process of offering PR agreements, which can take time, before making the announcement. It’s 10 local Tks. At this point ...

Does anyone know why someone was wearing Hatcher’s #4? Could be that with so many players at the start of camp and a fee retired numbers there has to be some duplicates. If Kent makes the team then either he takes a different number or maybe Hatcher is planning on donning a new number when he retur...

But my Rider fan friend told me Lenius was making $165K. That's a bit rich for our blood.


DH

Lenius was at $152K hard money on a re-worked deal for 2023. He didn't crack the 3D list of highest paid receivers for 2024 which cut off with Schaffer-Baker at $165K for #15.

Interesting. As training camp opened a lot of Rider fans were still miffed that O'Day and Mace chose to keep Fine over Dolegala. Now Fine has lost out to two BC castoffs; Shea Patterson and Antonio Pipkin. Speaking of Rider cuts wonder if the Lions have any interest in Carson Graham grad Brayden Le...

Yeah I can see the security aspect. Is there a reason why those sections are tarped off normally? Between those tarps is the seating area known as The Den. On the concourse level above The Den is a lounge area that is intended to be accessed by only those holding single game seats or banquet seats ...

Oops. My bad. I missed Pipkin also being cut.

I didn't hear about their first pre-season game but is MBT and that offense firing on all cylinders? I'd say not and if this is case. It was funny hearing the TSN crew all over how much potential Tre Ford has etc but it sure seems he's not in the cards with Chris Jones. Bizarre.. I'm not seeing why...

Usually the Lions tarp off 2 sections in the endzone in the lower bowl. Will this be the case as well for the concert home opener? It's hard to imagine they would do that unless there's some logistical reasons behind that be it for the stage show or for "The Den" seating. Looking at a gam...

Jake has got a solid arm. When he's on, he looks really good. But then I really don't know what he sees out there some of the time. Straight into the opponent's arms. I agree. Chase has the better upside in my opinion and deserves the back-up position. He was checking down a lot tonight but otherwi...

Will Campbell keep a 5"9" defensive back ? The trend in the CFL is for "length" in the secondary probably to offfset the fact receivers are getting increasingly taller. Would Campbell keep a 5'9 DB? Well both of his DHBs since he's been here, Lee & Sayles, are listed at 5'9.

Dolega looking terrible so far

He did for his first handful of plays then settled down nicely.

All sections are now opened up for sale.

I think we’ll see Vernon Adams and the Lions’ starters play at least the first quarter, and possibly most of the first half. Edmonton is resting many starters, so the Lions should be able to jump out to a lead. That would be my guess. Adams gets most, if not all, of the first half with Dolegala and...
