Sorry, Southern Hospitality? For a rival?

As for ET, he bailed out of BC in early 1995 after fluking out a GC win as the GM here, riding on Ritchie's coattails. His thank you to the team and the fans was to bolt. Sound familiar? It should.
Calm down Lawrence, you're going to have a heart attack. Why do you ask me if it sounds familiar? He hasn't bolted..
Although, it does seem like he doesn't like to stay in any one place too long...
ET called Wally a liar last year and the Lions organization "a disgrace". He then backpeddaled on team1040 trying to salvage some sort of face. Eric says whatever Eric figures the public around him at that moment wants to hear. Then he does damage control later. This is nothing new, it's just that he seems to yap more in Regina than he has anywhere else.
What did Eric call Wally a liar about? I don't really care either way... Like I said, they're friends, they're good, it obviously wasn't a big deal... it's just business to them.. and they're big enough to separate business from their private lives.
As for the Playoffs, how soon you forget, 2004, 2005 and 2006. How'd they work out in Regina? And of course, congrats once more on 2007, of course, although there were few 'Rider fans that came here last year to say good on BC after the 2006 win.
I didn't forget and I have probably given props when it was due every one of them years. I'm not sure where you're going with this? I have always recognized the Lions as a strong team over the last few years... you're looking for an argument where it does not exist.
As much people talk about Roy Shivers, at least he knew when to keep the laundry indoors.
Roy and Eric are very different in their styles that's for sure...
