Do you mind if I change the title of this thread to "Bomb her wardrobe" ? :wink:

Just kidding of course. Nice to see fellow CFL fans supporting their team...even if it's the wrong one.

Are you sure that smart asset managment is dangling a quarterback that has a big, bright future in front of him, or a quarterback that is on the downside of his stellar career? DH 8) Sadly, other teams are not led by complete fools in the player personnel department. They aren't going to give up mu...

While I don't disagree with what you're saying Coach, let us also not forget that the #2 quarterback on the B.C. Lions is going to get in significantly more games than most teams by virtue of Dave Dickenson's penchant for getting injured (to say nothing of the fact that he turns 34 tomorrow). I woul...

Lion24, the 1971 helmet you show is a very crude depiction of the actual helmet. 1971 was British Columbia's centennial in the confederation. To honour that occasion, the club put the centennial logo on their helmets - it was actually the provincial dogwood flower centred on three golden "C&quo...

Do you mean like what Paul McCallum used to do with us for contracts that he eventually signed in Saskatchewan? :lol:

Sure, but I think he currently resides in Regina. :)
That's very misleading then. It implies that if he doesn't get what he wants, he'll uproot his BC based family and head east. :wag:

As for the game. Nothing bumps my schadenfreude meter to 11 quite like an OSU loss. The bigger the game, the happier I am. So for me, this was a beautiful experience. :wink: You and my Plymouth MI born brother-in-law who happens to live in Ann Arbor (and is a U of M season ticket holder). My sister...

As an avid Lions collector, this gets my vote for the strangest piece of B.C. Lions memorablia ever created. I understand neither the tie-in to the football club and its significance nor its intended target market. Frankly, it would scare most children - and more than a few adults for that matter. S...

Well, since I didn't have ties to either school and my alma mater having no chance of going to a bowl game in the next 300 years, I was actually cheering for Ohio State for Brent Johnson and Rob Murphy's sake. I'm with Lionut, the BCS is a joke. Could they have pushed this game any farther out? I'm ...

I have to give BC Place management credit, they seem to be on the ball when it comes to ordering replacement roof panels. They're going out and getting them pronto. Umm, I don't know whether you're being facetious or not Mac, but they don't exactly have a choice. The longer they wait the larger tha...

Tighthead wrote:What did old Joe T do when Ray was signed?
He meant Ricky Williams. Joe was critical of the league for allowing the signing and said he was embarrassed to be an Argo. But I would agree - all 3 guys speak highly of their time in the CFL, and I think you can add Jeff Garcia to that list too.
