Re: Official 2007-08 Vancouver Canucks Season Thread
Maybe the hockey teams should hold free agent try out camps like the Lions does hoping to find some undrafted guys no one knows about. We all know they don't do this and can't do this as players are drafted at 18 and locked up so they are someone's property so there are no Ryan Phillips or Buck Pie...

Re: 'The Chap Unhappy in the Booth!! (Again)
LOL! This is like listening to Burke rag on Lowe....it just goes on and on and on..... It's only been one game, let's see how the Lions finish up this year; in the meantime enjoy the games!!! It's just football for goodness sakes. Lion Guy - you might notice that players don't complain about the te...

Re: BRING BACK CASEY PRINTERS !!!
with Murphy gone for the next few weeks we need the QB mobility that Printers would offer Alright let's bring this thread to close shall we firstdown45, as you are stroking the harp of 120db with a little too much fervour. CP will not be back a the immediate foreseeable future, so get over it. :baw...

Re: Official 2007-08 Vancouver Canucks Season Thread
Gillis said the Canuck coach had a "sub-standard" team to coach last year plus the other things that the others have posted. Quite clearly other GMs in the NHL club liked Dave Nonis and felt that the Canucks were doing a creditable job and had a pretty good team given the opportunities tea...

Re: LU: Riders to win
The issues WCJ outlines in his practice report concern me too. I was not a fan of listening to that stuff from HC on down about the bad taste of the WDF and how that was the driver to this season. Heard Angus Reid say now the focus is game to game. Finally sanity prevails. The intensity will improve...

Re: Jarious Jackson Now Starter For 2008 Season
I for one do not have any confidence in JJ. Nothing he did last year inspired me and I don't think he can get the job done. I hope I am proved otherwise tomorrow night. leo The good news is that the team on the field has confidence in whichever QB is calling the signals. I would have thought the Li...

Re: 40.000 for opening night?
Kudos to the Lions for once again setting the home opener up as an "event" - just like high school and college teams do in the USA with their "homecoming" games (do you recall prior to the Ackles regime, the club used to just 'open the doors' for the home opener with no push wha...

Re: Happy Canada Day Everyone
As much as I love my country I do feel that the Canadian people need their governments to do better for them and to do it with less of the taxpayers money. This isn't a complaint about me personally as I have done very well with the opportunities this country has given me, but this is more of a conc...

Re: Hope for "canadian" culture yet
We shouldn't be poaching other countries professionals when we have people who would gladly be trained here but don't make the list(usually not because they are good enough but because they are not worthy).

Re: Jarious Jackson Now Starter For 2008 Season
I didn't think Buck looked hurt at practice either yesterday. It appears that Buck is being tossed under the bus for the offense failing to generate the points vs Calgary. If the HC wants consistency then how about coaching consistency!!! WB could qualify for politics with his statements on his QB s...

Re: Jarious Likely To Start Against Saskatchewan
Well JJ is the starter (as most already knew). It's being played as it's JJ's turn, he's earned it...etc... I just don't buy it. Buck didn't blow the doors off but he by no means was the big problem last game (IMHO). You complete 64% of your passes and you lose the starting gig? Especially after st...

Re: Vet coaches get schooled this week
The new coaches are a bit of a factor but hardly a signal for coaches like Wally Buono or Doug Berry to be hanging them up. Montreal with Anthony Cavillo back firing on all cylinders beat a less than able Hamilton team. Yes, the Mtl coach had his team very well prepared and Ham wasn't. Toronto beat ...

http://www.nationalpost.com/sports/story.html?id=621702 Lowell's update on the shoulder situation.

Re: Buck's shoulder
People aren't going to like this but I'm finding that Pierce is off injured for some portion of games he plays. He seems to always be somewhat dinged up and is becoming a glass QB. Gritty but never seems to be totally healthy. According to the HC this is not true. He addressed this issue on 1040 ye...
