Re: Lions' receivers

Lucky didn't have a great season last year but I thought an opportunity to at least show in TC that he still had it would have been a good look, especially for a fan favourite. OTOH no other team has shown interest. Rhymes is a puzzler as didn't Campbell also have Rhymes as a player in Ottawa? Perh...

Re: Concert Kick-Off for June 15 opener to be announced Monday!

And they go rap/hip hop for the 2nd straight year with 50cent who performed as part of the 2022 Super Bowl halftime show with Dr Dre at SoFi Stadium. Sure looks like Doman is targeting Millennials and you can’t blame him given it’s a key demographic in the Lions rebuilding effort. I totally support...

Re: Training camp 2024

Interesting decision on Prukop given short yardage was the only reason Davis was on the team last year. Perhaps they now realize he was more a beneficiary of the Bombers' outstanding o-line than his ability. Of our remaining 3 QBs VA is probably the best athletic option. Maybe he just handles it th...

Re: Training camp 2024

Rookie CB Jordan Perryman seems to be the biggest beneficiary of today’s roster cuts. He’s taking first-team reps Monday in place of released rookie Tyon Davis. There are no other changes in the first-team offence and defence. Alex Hollins is back at WR after sitting out last week. Thanks for quick...

Re: CFL News re: TC's 2024- Not BC Lions

Hamilton has signed David Menard along with WR Dezmon Patmon who BC let go in the first round of cuts getting the roster down from 85 to 75.

Re: Lions' receivers

Rick Campbell is the coach and is also the Co-GM. He has all the authority he needs to field the team he wants to field working in tandem with McEvoy who provides a lot of capology input while also handling the bulk of contract negotiatireqons. Campbell has been a somewhat controversial coach regar...

Good post. Sound logic. For the sake of the Lions I hope you are right.

Re: Which helmet decal do you prefer for the Lions?

Isn't the current version the preferred version of Mrs. Doman? Amar no doubt knows full well "Happy Wife, Happy Life". What makes Mrs. Doman happy makes Amar happy. And what makes Amar happy works for me. Lol. :wink:

Re: Which helmet decal do you prefer for the Lions?

The new uniforms are a disaster all around, with dark orange numbers on black jerseys and no piping to distinguish them. From a distance you can't tell number 76 from 78, 66 from 69, 86 from 88 or 89, etc. The dark orange BC on black helmets is almost as bad, and has no design appeal. My pet peeve ...

Re: Lions' receivers

Messed this up but please bear with me as I don't think I can redo it. You didn't mess up the reply. Looks easy to follow. I might mess up my own reply however. Lol. Since before free agency DC you seem fixated on unnecessarily adding some other veteran receiver. Correct, although I feel the "...

Re: CFL News re: TC's 2024- Not BC Lions

Hope they don't try all 4 games on the same day again. One a day is far more preferable imo. Looked like a decent turnout in Montreal. Small gatherings were closer to reality for Edmonton and Calgary. It's almost if they are saying lets get it over fast. Used to be games were scheduled for Tuesday ...

Re: Training camp 2024

I expect BC will make at least a dozen cuts today or tomorrow at latest. They won't wait until the deadline next Saturday. Last year in getting down from 75 + non-counters to the 46 man active roster they made roughly half of the necessary cuts 2 days after the 1st preseason game. Yesterday's roster...

Re: Training camp 2024

According to CFL.ca transactions BC deleted NAT FB Dylan St.Pierre and transferred AMER LB Forrest Rhyne to the suspended list although both still show on the bclions.com active roster this morning.

Re: CFL News re: TC's 2024- Not BC Lions

While I've mostly considered Weston Dressler as a Rider, he's mulling if he goes into the HOF as a Bomber given that he really felt he grew as a person with the latter. My view is that these guys should go in in the last uniform they played in and not these fake 1 day contracts. Rider fans will be ...

Going to be interesting to see how Amar one-ups the previous 2 years.
