Before last Friday's Lions home game against Calgary, there was a pre-game ceremony to honour the Whitecaps. Head coach, Bob Lilley, team captain Jeff Clarke, Tony Caig, Steve Klein, Geordie Lyall, Dave Morris, physiotherapist Dave Terlicher and team doctor Don Hedges received a loud ovation from the Lions faithful in the pre-game ceremony. The Whitecaps mascot posed with the Felions.

Were any of you there for the pre-game ceremony?

For those of you who want to see the Whitecaps one more time this year, they are holding their 2nd annual State of the Franchise Meeting. If you attend, you can have your picture taken with both the men's and women's championship trophies! I've had my picture taken with the Grey Cup and Stanley Cup, and I think this pair of championship trophies will make a nice addition!

You can now add a Lions Grey Cup championship to that list.

While their 2007 season is one to be forgotten, their double championship 2006 season should never be forgotten. This is a great video of their banner 2006 season highlights.

Either Bob Lenarduzzi is very insincere, or in his opinion 2.5 years is NOT considered "soon".

Reviving this older thread to show what I consider one of the most underrated and underappreciated games in Vancouver sports history. The 2006 USL-1 Final game in its entirety in which the Whitecaps went to Rochester and made a spectacular performance with a 3-0 win over the Rhinos and bringing the city its first soccer championship since 1991. Overall 2006 was a great year for sports in Vancouver with the Giants, Whitecaps, Whitecaps Women, and finally the Lions all winning their respective league championships. :rockin:
