A logo is just small part of a branding strategy, though it is often the logo that is the focus of attention whenever a branding change is made. I'd suggest that colours, fonts, photo/video style, narrative strategy, etc have a bigger overall impact on a brand's impression on the marketplace. No mat...

In the video linked to below that was posted on the Lions site a couple days ago, Tedford talks quite a bit about evaluation and moving forward. It sounds to me like a coach who expects to return, but who knows. http://m.bclions.com/video/index/id/120335

Lionbackers had a more successful week in predicting winners in the divisional finals, going a combined 6-2 on the week. Congratulations lionbackers! Solar Max and Blitz both went 2-0, while B.C.FAN and I went 1-1. In terms of predicting scores, here's how it laid out (remember that the lower the nu...

Not sure Bates would have stayed on to be OL coach. Being HC at SFU was a great opportunity and likely more attractive than anything BC was in a position to offer.

Edit: I see now that Bates was let go before the SFU position became available. Oh well, good for him that he landed in a good spot.

McMann won't have to be fired. LU said last week he is retiring. He actually wanted to at the end of the 2014 season and was coaxed into returning one more season. That was one big mistake. It was possibly the difference between finishing 8-10 and finishing 7-11, which could have meant the differen...

I know it won't happen given the history with Wally, but I think Steve Buratto would be a great candidate for OC here. He's done a great job with UBC this year, he knows the league, and had a lot of success here in CP's MOP season. He had moderate success as an OC before, but is in his 70's and has...

Wally's not above criticism, and I didn't like his comments at his press conference, as I've said before. Harris is also not above critcism. His poor reaction to Buono's earlier statement, and focus on $$$ and winning personal glory during the team's fight to get into the playoffs was selfish and re...

There are lots of reasons to wait until the end of the year to negotiate contracts and most of them have to do with having more information at your disposal. Was there also an implied challenge in there to Harris, that his contract offer would be affected by his performance over the last third of th...

Yup, I believe that is what you call the "smoking gun" evidence that Maxlion was looking for. :wink: DH :cool: Not at all. I asked for a source for the quote "(Harris) needed to prove himself over the last half of the season". Is there a difference between that statement and say...

Interesting that you are now quoting Blitz' fake Buono quote--"needed to prove himself over the last half of the season". See how these fairytales spread? Show me a source where Wally said this or lose all credibility. Clearly you overestimate the number of people who care what you do or ...

Here are the results from Wk 1: One poster correctly predicted the winner in both contests. Congratulations Solar Max! Three posters went 1-1: B.C.FAN, Dupsdell (unfortunately no longer with us), and your humble author. The remaining prognosticators will have a chance to redeem themselves this week!...

No, the GM has only ONE CHOICE when he goes out in public and rips a player for spreading "locker room secrets" publicly! You can't have it both ways...unless of course you are Wally Buono who started this "tete a tete" with Andrew Harris by saying that Harris (one of the best p...

That's okay. Thanks.

Just for the record, here are some of the statements reported in the press. Just for the record, max? No bias? Heck, many times I think you work for Wally Buono, as a P.R. spokesman. And you do a good job defending and supporting Wally Buono. :thup: ?? What's with the personal attacks Joe? I only p...

Just for the record, here are some of the statements reported in the press. Harris said: “I think there’s a body of work there and I should be compensated in a certain way. If they don’t want to do it, I think someone will.” http://www.theprovince.com/sports/Willes+What+Harris+worth+about+find/11406...
