It's over. The Riders will make adjustments at he half while the Lions won't or can't.

It was good to see that we abandoned the running game, since it was working.

We'll have to agree to disagree, Anthony Reddick..that was a legit major, Hendreson..that is just football..imvho.
Know the smallest things and the biggest things, the shallowest things and the deepest things. As if it were a straight road mapped out on the ground ... These things cannot be explained in detail. From one thing, know ten thousand things. When you attain the Way of strategy there will not be one thing you cannot see. You must study hard.

UGGHHH! At least there have been some positives but the mistakes overshadow. I think BYE week is going to live up to its name. Armstrong was not our worst reciever, IMO. Oh well, theres still another half.

We'll see, the Riders have the ball at the start of the second half, if we hold them, and score a TD on our posession..we can win.

Otherwise the little dutch boy at the dike has run out of fingers and toes and elbows..

Well the linemen did make a statement that they didn't want the ball in Robertson's hands when Valli took that screen pass away from him. :bang:
Now that I don't live in Quesnel do I need to change my handle??

I know what you are saying and yeah it wasn't bad in any means but its a penalty. Really though, that play will make no difference in this game :thup:

Of all of the things that have disappointed me this yr, I have to admit, Manny A's hands of butter is the largest.

What is this guy doing? Seriously?

He wasn't. The same problem too many other Lions players are having tonight.
