I was actually thinking about this the other day NOJ.... Based on what has happened in the last 4 years: • delete Darren Flutie for Geroy Simon. •delete Nick Hebeler for Brent Johnson. •delete Harry Holt for Jason Clermont. •delete (either Cacic or Klassen) for Tyrone Willia...

Awesome illustration! But the number should have been 584 (five ate four). :lol:

Bring a hard hat Gerry. Although the Esk fans may be expecting a loss making it much easier to handle if the Lions get out front. Unnecessary (you're joking right Phil?). No-one is going to hassle a distinguished gentleman like Gerry at the game. Also, this isn't Calgary, where they sell beer in ca...

A little early to be picking winners with 4 games left, isn't it? :? A lot can happen between now and November 4. Still, if the season were to end tonight, these would be my picks: MOP - Joe Smith Runner-Up - Ryan Phillips Rookie - Cam Wake Runner-Up - Cory Rodgers Lineman - Rob Murphy Runner-Up - J...

I wonder why Jon Cornish was left off Calgary's list of rookies? :?

I agree. I think you could pretty much engrave Cam Wake's name on the trophy now. I think Nick Setta has done an outstanding job in Hamilton.

No one wants to dance with Wally because history shows he gets the long end of the stick more often then not. Well I think that with the recent trading of QB's that look good in the BC system and flounder elsewhere, teams aren't as willing to think that the Spergon Wynn's of the world are the QB of...

I think Montreal would be a much more logical destination should he decide to continue his coaching career. I don't see Jim Popp lasting as a HC beyond this season, and he's from the East Coast.

another great thing about JJ is that he loves preasure games just look at the Calgary game, and of Course the Sask game, he has even said that he feels more relaxed when the presure is on. He hasn't seen pressure yet. Playoffs vs regular season is night and day. I don't think we have to worry too m...

Calgary = 40,000 - 45,000 Saskatchewan = 50,000 - 55,000 David you are giving WAY too much credit to Rider fans, they will not make a 10K difference. Funny. I wasn't really even thinking about Rider fans when I came up with my numbers (but make no mistake. They would definitely be more of a presenc...

General rule of thumb: 90% of people wearing a NY Yankee hat can't name a single player. 100% of people wearing colored Yankee hat as a fashion statement couldn't even tell you what sport they play.

Calgary = 40,000 - 45,000 Saskatchewan = 50,000 - 55,000 IF the Lions do it right by: 1) not cheaping out like last year - advertise the *poop* out of it - and I'm talking large "Welcome To The Main Event.....Let's Get Ready To Rumble" event-type ads here.....not the weekly vanilla "B...

Did anyone read page A3 of the Province today. Under the headline "Unions Unhappy With Deal, Strike" (dumb heading. When are unions ever happy? :roll: But I digress....), a city worker made a very interesting observation in the now 11 week-old civic strike: City worker Tom Bevan believes u...

No. They would rather try and attract new fans with print ads that make CFL fans look like digusting looking freaks. But then again (*dripping with sarcasm*), they are oh-so-clever because they don't require any copy to convey the message. Well they have always had the bump in attendance each year ...

You'd think that with 11 years in the playoffs and the very realistic chance of a 4th straight WDF....the marketing department might want to jump on that for next years season ticket drive.
