Yup. You get the scoop. The news business is competitive and cut throat. Take no prisoners.

It can be very fierce on Lionbackers. You gotta check your news sources early and often. :lol:

Oh yeah, about the news. Congratulations to Geroy and the Lions. He had a very good year again last year. :beer:

Safe bet to say no one will be wearing #81 again for the Lions. Three more years of superman poses is great news. :beer:

A signed contact through 2011 means watching Geroy do his Superman pose in the sunshine and fresh air at B.C. Place. It doesn't get any better than that. :yes:

Congratulations Geroy! Well deserved.

At his age, that means he'll probably retire a Lion, which works for me...they'll have to retire his jersey if he stays that long.

Great to have Assistant Coach Simon aboard for the next 3 years....unless Head Coach Buono suddenly decides to cut his a$$ part way through. Nah....Wally's never done that before.

Was surprised. I have to start paying closer attention. I had no idea the Lions have so many players they are looking to extend NOW rather than later. Good to have a first ballot HofFamer locked up. :popcorn:
