It does make one wonder how much longer Los Angeles will be without an NFL team. Of course the stadium part of things is just a piece of the game...... I wonder also how many teams have been able to parlay movement from their present host city into making adaptations for stadiums using the 'we can a...

Had it all set up to attend with the guy I have STickets with. He's busy on the 13th so the Lions are outta luck. He's got one thing I gotta pick up for him if I can find one (its a T-shirt, so no worries to you jersey/helmet collectors). His words when he found out the date was not the usual post-...

Milan Lucic kayoed by one punch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2u9D2AkznX4 :bang: Still wish the Canucks had drafted Lucic. Nice to watch him take a shot, not sure why he didn't drop the gloves...... Edmonton Oilers losing streak now stands at 11 straight, 6 off the league record held by Washingto...

Yeah, nota, you're right; it is kind of odd schedule-wise. I agree that the Cowboys are the better team, but sometimes the Bears can be really tough at home in Soldier Field. It might be a decent game--two good quarterbacks. The Bears' defense is dreadful, though, so who knows? Here's the preview (...

One of the newerish things (I know, most things are actually recycled ideas from another time) brought about by Chip Kelly and Peyton Manning to an extent, is the up tempo. Really keep the defense on edge, things moving so quickly they almost don't get time to read whats going on. Sometimes Peyton i...

I have to admit if an NFL game were played here in BC Place or I happened to be in Toronto when a game was being played there, I woulda gone. Seems unlikely at this point. I certainly enjoyed my ONE NFL game just down the road in Seattle. Sure, my bias as a CFL fan is glad the Bill's Toronto experim...

I have to admit I'd love to see Miles have some kinda role as a coach here. Heard great things about him as a possible coach WHEN HE WAS STILL PLAYING. Maybe that means squat but maybe it doesn't....

Not sure if this has happened before (almost definately not but maybe someday, sometime). The Cowboys played (as did the Bears) last Thanksgiving. Both teams are playing AGAIN, the following Thursday, but against each other instead of the teams they played last week (Bears/Packers Eagles/Cowboys). T...

It's good that this has been resolved quickly. Wally now needs to move quickly, although not hastily, in finding his new HC. I think this is important because we want the new guy to still have some chance at landing the best coordinators and/or coaches before they're snapped up by the competition. ...

Hope you're right about that. I'd like to see us get Dan LeFevour out of Hamilton (provided he's fully back from that knee injury).

Me too! Dan's the man, IMO.....

I wonder whether this might be the right time for the Lions' defense to consider a 3-4 alignment if we can obtain a DC who can coach it up. We are rich in fast, mobile linebackers--what with Elimimian, Bighill, Lokombo, and Hoffman-Ellis--this seeming to be the current defensive strength of the tea...

In my report last week I failed to mention that #6Ricky Schmitt was also not on the Lions current roster. This is obviously now taking on important and sinister ramifications which we will find out about tomorrow. In a nutshell, there had to be a reason. Kevin Glenn, Dante Marsh, Khalif Mitchell an...

Yes, you are probably right, sj-roc, I was hoping to get an email by now but tomorrow will do..... I always get there fairly early but not too early. One thing I will give them (the Lions) a :thup: for is that they honour the STHolder thing now. The first few years I went they said the first two hou...

This will probably happen this Saturday or Sunday right? There is always a locker-room sale the weekend after Grey Cup, IIRC. I'm expecting an email annoucing it soon. This will be better than other years simply because there is often left-over Grey Cup swag to sell too. For e.g. I wasn't at the Gre...
