Keys To A Win In Regina!!
It's a sellout in Regina for this first place match up between our Leos, who are in first place and the Saskatchewan Roughriders, who are one point behind in the standings. The crowd will be pumped as we invade enemy territory!! A big win in Regina and we move ahead by 3 points and a loss and we dro...

Burratto's offence was the best in the league in 2003 and 2004 with our Leos and best in the league in 2006 with the Calgary Stampeders! However, right now he is really hampered in Toronto because he doesn't have a quality running back and he needs more talent on his offensive line. When you see Bur...

The shame of it is that it impacts other sports writers that understand the line with regard to reporting on the Leos. This isn't something that Lowell Ullrich or Ed Willes would do!! As Lionbackers, as noted by No Ordinary Joe, we ensure that no information regarding practices leaks out so that the...

Wally wanted the Lions to make more big plays and several defenders really stepped up...like T. Williams with 5 tackles and fumble recovery; C. Wake with 3 tackles, 2 sacks and a forced fumble; but K. Banks hit the grandslam with a tackle, a sack, an interception, a forced fumble and also knocked d...

One of the absolute highlights of the year for me is the development of Jarious Jackson. He is very steady, plays very smart, has a rocket arm and great escapability. I liked how Wally Buono almost jumped down the reporter's throat when he asked who starts next game. It has to be Jarious Jackson. O...

We have managed a 7-3-1 record with all of the adversity we have had. Be happy about where we are right now....I am. I am too lionsfan60 and will be even happier when I get that tshirt in the mail!!!! :wink: I don't look at a quarterback's passing percentage as the most important factor in his play...

Leos/Argos Post-Game Thoughts!
It was a key matchup for our Leos against an Argo's team that was expected to give us a tough battle. Jordan Younger started the fireworks before this game even started, crossing into our half of the field to get into it with Paris Jackson. It only fired up our Leos who play their best when the oppo...

Didn't Anthony Warren rush for something like 160+ yards in the 2004 Grey Cup? We lost. He did...but the Argos philosophy is that opposition teams will not have the patience to keep running the football, especially on second down! Therefore they play pass defense first almost all the time!! Against...

Getting Ready For The Argos!
The Argos will provide a formidable challenge for our Leos on Saturday night. The Argos record is deceptive, because they've struggled when they haven't had Bishop at quarterback. But when Bishop is playing they are a very dangerous team and have added a lot of experience at the receiver position in...

There is a lot of joy regarding Jason Clermont signing an extension, as there should be. A number of signs indicated otherwise earlier this season, including Clermont's comments that he would enjoy finishing his career in green. Clermont has played very well so far this season. He's had a few drops ...

Carl Kidd Pays A Visit
:roll: Carl Kidd paid a visit to our Leos practice on Tuesday of this week. The viist was described as a social visit although the timing is interesting, in that our Leos have only had our long snapper as a backup, until they brought in an NFL cut in on the same day. Certainly, if Carl Kidd has kept...

i agree 100% with u but to play devils advocate...would you rather the QB hold onto the ball and stand in there the extra second to deliever the ball for a strike while taking a big shot, or would you have him tuck it and/or dodge away to avoid the hit but not make the play? _________________ In th...

Robert Ortiz is a talented receiver. However, for a pro, he only has average speed and will be more of a possession receiver than a deep threat. Ortiz, even though he is not a burner has had experience running back punts on special teams, offering that important asset for the CFL...the ability to do...

The most important thing to me is to have our quarterbacks ready for the final three games and the playoffs. Yes, there is pressure, as we're only a point out of first place but at the same time Calgary is breathing down our necks. We've learned the hard way, too many times, by playing quarterbacks ...
