Re: Paul McCallum asks for a trade
is any other team really in need of kicker right now? Lions should hold on to him as insurance, or if another team loses a their kicker to injury then we can deal PM from a position of strength. You got that right but the trade deadline is imminent (not sure but normally around end of first week of...

Re: Buono not sure who will start vs Riders - Mike Beamish
Buck was good in the first half and abysmal in the second half. I hope JJ is ready. Buck is done in Vancouver. Is that you Tony? Wakes... you must have fallen asleep and missed the entire 4th Q as the offence didn't play much in the 4th now did it? Pierce never missed a tackle. Both the story headl...

Re: Another star sent packing in Argo land
The Argos are doomed if they do and doomed if they don't fire this guy. He is a nicer and smoother Forrest Gregg and another former NFL guy who just didn't get the CFL versus all the other coaches from the US including the most recent top coach, Mark Trestman who did and do. While he may be trying t...

Re: Major announcement from David Braley this week?
Maybe Jimmy is going to buy the team finally? You don't know Jimmy then. He just looks at the Balance Sheet and the P & L. He'd not buy it or he would have done it when it needed saving before David Braley bought it. The facts are this eastern based businessman with no roots in the west nor bus...

Re: Schemes, Personnel, Execution, Play Design, and Play Calling
I believe a gentleman who had more input on that then he will be given credit for now resides in Saskatchewan. I would submit, again, that if you really want to shake things up a bit offensively, reach a little bit further into the past you might wait out the season and give a cantankerous SOB in T...

Re: Ricky Foley Tied For CFL Lead in Sacks!
Area 51 I really don't know who you are or who you think you are, but Pottinger is long gone from your team and should be a none factor to you. I realize you have been holding a grudge against him since university days , when you felt Pottinger stole the defense award away from Foley. Why don't you...

Re: Schemes, Personnel, Execution, Play Design, and Play Calling
A lot of teams are struggling to stop the run, a weaknesses of today's defenses as they cut down on linebackers to play additional defensive backs and also due to the conversion of defensive backs to play linebacker positions. However, our run defense is the worst in the league and that mostly come...

Re: QB's The problem???
I too am disappointed with the Sports Editor allowing this gutless attack on Wally Buono as some sort of long time viewer, first time writer! It was a gutless column that should have been stopped as it unfairly attacks the CFL and he has zero credibility on football or hockey for that matter. ------...

Re: QB's The problem???
As to Gallagher not being popular in the Lions offices...too funny. He couldn't find the Lions offices as he never leaves Vancouver. He is like David Pratt only he travels further to work. For those of you who follow the Canucks you might recognize that same boiler plate column as this is his cry ba...

Re: 1 point in the second half?
Why'd they stop pounding Mallet? Shultz brought this up in the TSN post game panel but I was frustrated Mallet didn't get used more. I love the passing game but still Mallet was churning early and then got used little later. I want Mallet pounding other teams defences until they stop him. That's my...

Re: QB's The problem???
I too am a huge Buck fan but he has not progressed to being the guy who carries his team to a win like Burris. Buck does not throw the long ball well and when you don't stretch the field you play into the zone defence Calgary likes to employ. Time to bring CP along and let Geroy and Paris get more ...

Re: QB's The problem???
There's a saying that quarterbacks get too much credit when a team wins and too blame when the team loses. I thought he did a fairly good job managing the game tonight. (with the exception of that ill timed interception) I don't think Buck was the reason the Lions lost tonight. :thup: :beauty: :bea...

Re: Buck's Last Stand?
Our offense sucks with Quarterback X. Yeah, but our offense sucks with Quarterback Y. Yeah, but our offense will suck with Quarterback Z. News flash. The quarterbacks aren't the problem. Stop arguing about them and figure out what the problem is. (Hint: It's in the coaching ranks). It is always eas...

Re: Quoting Tom Higgins
Well the on field officials aren't helping Buck for whatever reason. Their missing of these hits on Pierce are amateurish and not what you expect of top officials.
Not even senior amateur officials are that bad and they don't have play reviews and booths in Toronto.
