This is Lions country. Get with the program here or move back to Saskatchewan. And take dB/chimpy with you. He will help with any attendance, promotion, roofs, stadiums, Beckham or Printers issues you have to deal with there.

...and what were you listening to? The Leos were on 1410, Canucks on 1040. What I heard on 1410 was all Leos.


Yeah but the post game show i heard was only a hour, (were the canucks post game show goes all night)

It is a possibility, but we will address that if you make the flight out of Regina, don't count your chickens before they hatch.

Jim Mullin said he only expects 48,000 - 50,000 for the WF and a caller called up mentioning about how the population of Vancouver should show more support and fill the dome to the rafters :bawl:

If the Riders appear, I doubt that we have less than 55K, they just bring out the best vs the best in the CFL a week early IMHO.

Sorry if I'm skipping over things already said in this thread, but 14 bottles of Alexander Keiths will do that for you (Thank God cause I needed it!!)

As much as I HATE both the Riders and the Esks, the Esks did get kinda robbed tonight. Not that it woulda made much difference, but wow, that final play, at least from the angles I saw it at... sketchy at best.

Glad the Lions have the WF at home, which brings me to a question, for the long time season ticket holders/fans who might know... my friend is going to be in PG for the WF, so he's going to sell me his ticket, BUT, my seat is 6 seats away from his. The seat next to mine has been empty all season (except for last game, apparently BB had that seat, but gave it to sj-roc (which was actually kinda cool since it was nice to be able to talk to someone who knew something about the game, who was also a Lionbacker.) so BB, if you own that seat a) shoulda been sittin' there all year buddy! and b) if you want to trade that seat for one in the same row, just 6 seats over (which is actually closer to the isle) just send me a PM, because I will have the empty seat in our section for the WF, but would like the one next to mine.

Does anyone know, if I call the Ticket ppl for the Lions, and I have the ticket for seat 5, but I want the ticket for seat 9, and myself and the seat holder are willing to show ID, sign whatever, IF seat 9 is unsold, will they exchange it for that game? As I have a... girl that I like whom I'd like to ask to the WF, but it would likely be a good thing if we could sit together, not 6 seats apart lol

Anyone know about that?

Let's be good fans!

Just a side note on that... if we do happen to play Sask in the WF, and there are Sask fans in your section (as there were in ours) while I have no problem with heckling, PLEASE don't start throwing things at them, like peanuts etc. I was very peeved at the ppl who did that to the old LADY Sask fan last year.

We have more class than that Lionbackers! So (not that you needed to be told) if you see something like that, please do what you can verbally to stop it, or, call me ;) haha

Seriously though, we don't need that. I'm a Flames fan, out here on the West coast, and I've been to 8 Flames vs nucks games at GM Place, and while I've been verbally abused and heckled, I've never had anything thrown at me or anything like that, and I tip my hat to the Canucks fans for that. We don't need that at Lions games. As much as Sask sucks and we hate them, let's have a clean victory shall we?

Thank you!

The people throwing stuff I doubt are any Lionbackers. Throwing stuff is unacceptable. As for doughboy, who has already counted out the Stamps should be careful. They have an explosive offence and your defence has been on the back of the milk cartons, as it has been missing the last 6 weeks. Tsk Tsk

While I think BC matches up better against the Stamps than the Riders, I hope Riders make it to the WF because there are a lot more Riders fans in Van than Stamps fans. Thus a better chance of a sellout vs Riders and I love to see Riders fans giving their money to BC for a seat in the Dome.

I would like to see Riders stomped by Stamps just because they think it is their god given right beat the Lions at home in the Final...
