BC Lions Energy Drink....who knew??

So I am in my local Safeway store tonight about to buy some bottled water, when I see a familiar looking logo in the surprisingly large energy drink section. Now, I consider myself to be quite media aware and, with a degree of modesty, fairly savvy when it comes to marketing and new product launches...

Leos may start 2011 on a looooong road trip...

***I started to respond to Don Miller in another thread, but thought this deserved its own thread*** .We need the win to stay alive and hope for a Winnipeg and or Sask win while we win our remaining two games. Having said that, it may still not be enough this year. Old Empire Field proved to be wha...

Re: Riders @ Lions, Hallowe'en Pre Game Odds and Comments

Nothing for nothing, but I'd love to know the Lions' fixation with scheduling games on Halloween. I mean, it's not as bad as last year when they went head-to-head with trick or treaters, but sorry, 2:00pm Sunday isn't much better. With the game ending at (the earliest) 5:00pm, some (most?) families...

Re: LeosTalent Belies Season Record

We did not find that rush end we need so much in the CFL. Baggs is a killer now in Hamilton. In fairness, I think we did find that rush end. His name was Jeremy Geathers who lasted part of one game before blowing out his knee. Jonathan Brown was amazed at the quickness of his first step. Not sure w...

Re: Eskimos vs Riders thread

Wow. This is a surprising development. Ricky Ray "hurting" from the game in BC and starts the game on the bench. :shock:

Must have been when he was cranked by Solly.

Re: Lions 36 - Stampeders 31 Post Game Stats and Comments

The O-Line must be tweaked maybe with an import or two for 2011. I am going to respectfully disagree with this point as I think we're in very good shape on the O-line for 2011. First, I only want one import on the O-line and I hope it's Jovan Olafioye. He's fitting in very nicely at left tackle and...

Re: Buono Hufnagel Post game Handshake.

May have been unenamoured with the Nik Lewis hit. I know that it is part of the game but I fail to understand why players will lay out a hit that could seriously injure someone when something less is more than sufficient. Wasn't it Mr. Lewis that ended Kelly Wiltshires career on a legal but somewha...

Re: Lions 36 - Stampeders 31 Post Game Stats and Comments

The funniest one though in the game was HB patting up Elimimian, Sol-E pushed Burris away telling to get away you Bra wearing pansey QB. HB then started mouthing off to Sol-E, but only to his back as Sol-E doesn't have the time of day for HB. To me that was an indicator that the Lions were beginnin...

Re: Lions 36 - Stampeders 31 Post Game Stats and Comments

So, Lulay was starting to grow on me, but is it just me, or can he not see down field? Every pass I can remember was to the flat to Robertson. It was either to Robertson or run with it. The thing we have to remember is it's only his 2nd year in the league. How many other CFL QBs have done what he's...

Re: Game Day Thread - Lions @ Stampeders - October 22, 2010

Will be interesting to see if Buono and his clipboard buddies ever figure out that K Williams is not a DE - - especially not a wide side DE. Once he's in space it's like a fish out of water. Burris made him look silly with that open field juke. I'd say the "fish out of water" had a pretty...

Re: Best Surprises/Most Disappointing

Great work Blitz. I disagree with Anton McKenzie in that I think he's provided a solid presence at linebacker. All world? No. I would think we need the speed of a Joe Henderson next year, but I have him rated higher than you do. Also, I can't say Dominie Pittman was a disappointment as nothing was e...

Re: Lions/Stamps Post Game Rant

Buono's best before date has come and gone. How can he possibly forget to include both McCallum and Whyte off tonight's roster. Paris Jackson punting and David Hyland doing the place kicking. You gotta be kidding. It wasn't Buono's error, it was McEvoy's. While you can say it's symptomatic of a per...
