Re: Leos/Evil Empire Post Game Thoughts!!

Well Rammer, you give the wily vet coach credit for something that didn't occur to me, and you're most likely right. If you're Wally, isn't it easier to say to team1040 that you blew the call and made an error, rather than call attention to the season series point differential? Either way, it worke...

Re: Lions 43 - Eskimos 28 Post Game Stats and Comments

And, unlike the Schmos with Buck, the Lions were not head hunting Ricky Ray, or aiming to hit him late. I recall one play in particular. Jerome Dennis had a shot available to lower his head and hit Ricky Ray, borderline late (borderline is late). He slowed down and did not even touch Ray. The same ...

Re: Lions 43 - Eskimos 28 Post Game Stats and Comments

One caller said Buck reminded him of Joe Kapp. Now thats high praise. BB Courage. That was Joe Kapp, both with the Lions and the Minnesota Vikings. Blood on the jersey, limping back to the huddle, leading his team to victory. Buck Pierce plays with the same courage as Joe Kapp, but Buck has even mo...

Re: Leos/Evil Empire Post Game Thoughts!!

What a difference a week makes. But that would mean losing AGAIN to the one team I despise in the world more than any other — the Eskimos, the club I watched defeat my beloved Lions 38-1 in the Western Final in Edmonton on a cold November afternoon in 1977 as I convalesced from surgery in Langley M...

Re: Lions 43 - Eskimos 28 Post Game Stats and Comments

what a game! Way to hang in there Buck Tell him he looked like Russ Jackson tonight, and then have him google Russ. Un-freakin-believable performance. And that with Shabazz (among others) attempting to injure him. It looks like Maciocia has his guys head hunting. That one shot dislodged Buck's chin...

Re: Oct. 17 - BC Lions at Edmonton Eskimos Game Day Thread

OUTCOACHED 5 Blockers. 7 or 8 D on the line. Same strategy that worked for years for Don Matthews. One would think the Lions have never seen it or even heard of it from their helplessness against it! Buck has about 1.5 seconds to get rid of the ball before unblocked DBs run over him. F***ing stupid ...

Nucks 4 - Wings 3 Overtime Goal scorers: Hansen, Kesler, Raymond, Burrows Kesler and Burrows are playing so well. Kesler has much family in Detroit. Good for him. Must have been some mixed feelings amongst his family and friends. Canucks win the third to tie. Win the Overtime. Nice. Salo plays almos...

Re: ricky ray

from Mike Beamish's article in the Sun: The Lions have a pair of quarterbacks still establishing their credentials. Both have the tools. But Ray has a more developed sense of how to use his. He has the ability to craft a play into a thing of beauty, whether impromptu or by design. - Mike Beamish &qu...

Re: ricky ray

Good thread, mightybuck. Interesting to hear about Ricky Ray's early days as a QB. His 2 Grey Cups. His amazing stats. They truly represent how great a QB he is. It displeases me that he is with the Evil Empire. But he a tremendous asset for our league. Put me in the group that thinks he is the type...

Re: Official 2008-09 Vancouver Canucks Season Thread

Great win. Down 3 - 1. Win the second period. Down 4 - 3. Win the third period. Win it in Overtime. Wow. Back to back against the Flames. Keenan is going to go ballistic at some point. I feel sorry for Kiprusoff. He and Keenan could be a bad mix. No matter what anyone says about it's early, etc., th...
