Re: Firings and Hirings

I'm hoping Ed Hervey doesn't bring over everyone from Edmonton. It reminds me of when Kapp came in as GM and hired Lary Kuharich, who then brought in Larry Willis, Emanuel Tolbert and some others. Guys I never wanted to cheer FOR! :) I don't want Maas here as coach and a bunch of Eskimos. Everyone t...

Re: 2018 All Things Lions Marketing & Promotions

I love the upgrades to the stadium. I love the roof, even though I wish it extended to where you see the catwalk. The biggest problem regarding it is the BC Lions team. When I went through the walk through before it was completed, they showed how most if not all fans would be protected from any rain...

Re: 2018 All Things Lions Marketing & Promotions

It should be pointed out that "Family Day" appears to be a league-wide initiative. I don't know if all teams follow the same blueprint, but I believe the CFL was looking to scale more concepts for all teams to use. I am not sure if all teams brought kids out of the tunnel but I think lett...

Re: 2018 All Things Lions Marketing & Promotions

I had those thoughts about the fate of the team and it's relationship in the Vancouver market when Bobby Ackles died. It's never a good time to really discuss that when it happens, since it is a man with a family that has passed. But I knew then that it was bad for the Lions, and my worst fears back...

Well it's not worse than 2011 right now, and I think I remember how that turned out. It can be turned around.

Re: New Uniforms next year. Adidas out as Uniform supplier.

One more mockup, my suggestion for if we're stuck with current uni templates for a few years.CFL_BCL_Jersey.jpg Almost work for me, but I think the roads would be better with black pants. Also when I saw the home unis with orange socks in preseason it was a bit too much. I think if both these unis ...

Re: New Uniforms next year. Adidas out as Uniform supplier.

I'd be pretty satisfied if they removed the lower back logo, put it smaller above the name plate so you still have a logo on the jersey, and then possibly add a little black trim to the roads, including on the helmet logo to help it stand out. That wouldn't take much. Black solid stripe on socks, bl...

Re: New Uniforms next year. Adidas out as Uniform supplier.

With all due respect, I think some of you need to get over the comparisons. Creamsicles, A&W, come on. You could say something like this for probably every team in existence, but with some other brand or product. Personally I agree with Braley on the colours. When we had black as the main colour...

Re: New Uniforms next year. Adidas out as Uniform supplier.

I think the current home jerseys look sharp except that they need to remove the logo from the back of the jersey. Also go to the 1976-77 logo on the current black helmets keeping the facemasks black. Then use the black helmets, with orange center stripe, on the road and the same black pants and soc...

Re: New Uniforms next year. Adidas out as Uniform supplier.

Here's another image with the black socks (btw, if you'll notice, the Leos have switched to orange socks at home this year from black socks). http://gdurl.com/TApo DH :cool: I'm glad to see that the orange socks for this year appear to just have been a preseason thing. As we know now they went back...

Re: Leos Name New Club President

The beach party theme sounds like something they've tried before. It's different, but didn't they do a backyard BBQ theme in one section with the concourse decorated. It only works if people actually do it. Nothing looks more pathetic than when they are trying to portray a party when there's nobody ...

Re: 2017 All Things Lions Marketing & Promotions

Can't believe they are still just doing the same as they were back when I decided not to renew a couple years ago. I could see it all happening then, and didn't like what I saw but I knew we were heading to where we are now. They were just going through the motions back then with annual price increa...

Re: 2017 All Things Lions Marketing & Promotions

I was on the Whitecaps website that had all the information regarding the game day, such as code of conduct, what do expect, etc. The section about the roof stated something like this: Since soccer is traditionally an outdoor game, the roof will be open year round. So in the cool spring and fall wea...

Re: Is Wally Staying around in 2018?

The careful what you wish for part is that you never know what the next group is going to do. We've been there before with past ownership groups. It has to be right.

Re: Is Wally Staying around in 2018?

It's a bit of a careful what I wish for type of scenario. I think we need some fresh ideas at the top. Strong leadership is not and has not been at the top since Ackles left us. Skulsky doesn't even have a twitter account. I used to get responses directly from Bob Ackles if I had a concern. Not alwa...
