Interestin tidbit. I noticed this last week and again tonight. In short yardage situations like 1st and G from the 1 the Lions shift Olafioye back over to RT.

I do not get why canuck fans do not complain if a game is on a Thursday night. and they still get close to a sell out.

Watching the games from Sasky and the one thing I have noticed lately about Lions crowds is the increase in younger fans and people of ethnicity. It's great to see and I think something the Lions can hopefully build on!jcalhoun wrote:I don't attend games often (about once a year).

Toronto field goal good 6-3
Tom, I known Lions fans don't want to admit it, but the fan base for the Canucks is a lot larger than for the Lions. Getting 18,000 to GM Place for the Canucks is akin to getting 6000 to a Lions game. But even the Canucks are feeling the pain of not doing well. We'll see how full they are this yearfootballtom wrote:jcalhoun wrote:I don't attend games often (about once a year).

or a sack or a pick
most of the canucks season ticket base is corporate and work downtown ... they just work late and stay downtown ... that why the canucks moved down therefootballtom wrote:jcalhoun wrote:I don't attend games often (about once a year).
