Just when you thought we had a chance to come back in this game, on comes the defence to kill that idea.
Now that I don't live in Quesnel do I need to change my handle??

The noise is obviously affecting the playcalling. Dean Valli was late snapping the football.

Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

And just think, next year the Lions are going to be playing in a temp stadium (location unknown) and the business heads in Surrey have decided with that and this year's showing it is a good time to INCREASE ticket prices - YET AGAIN. What is it 6 years of increased prices?

I'm hoping they have a good marketing plan in the off-season. Afterall, Braley said the new club seats helped off set the loss in season tickets this year. What is he going to do next year without those club seats?

I'm glad people here think we don't need to put more money into bringing in a new offensive line... :bang:

I will give the Als credit when I give the Colorado Avalanche credit -- when they have to build a team from the ground up like everybody else, rather than benefiting from the organic growth of having relocated the best team in the league.

The Renegades would probably still be around if they were the Baltimore Stallions.
