    CFL/BC Lions Thread

    So glad the Lions have a proper O line this year, makes such a huge difference. Rourke has been great, I went to the Hamilton game which was arguably his worst game of the season. Even when he's not 'On' he's still pretty good. The defense won us this game, which is what good teams will do. If one area is struggling the other will pick it up. I don't know if we're good enough to beat the Bombers or Stampeders in the playoffs, but I am really enjoying the season thus far. 

    Lucky Whitehead is a class act too, came out to the fans at home and in Regina for autographs and pictures. Really liking the personalities on this team.

    Best / Worst concert?

    in Off-Topic General

    Posted · Edited by Mr. Self Destruct

    First Concert: Gob, Croatian Cultural Centre in maybe 1995 or 1996?
    Last Concert: U2
    Best Concert: Nine Inch Nails, Tension 2013 Tour. Or maybe Rage Against the Machine in 1996. Hard to pick!
    Worst Concert: Radiohead - bunch of self-absorbed dicks who kept yelling at the crowd. I had free tickets and wish I hadn't gone.
    Loudest Concert: Metallica
    Seen the Most: Nine Inch Nails
    Most Surprising: Josh Radin with the wife. I lean towards Industrial/Alternative/Metal, but he was surprisingly entertaining and talented. 
    Next Concert: Nine Inch Nails, September 2022 in Las Vegas
    Wish I Could Have Seen: Tool, A Perfect Circle

    I can’t help but think that any team will not have a winning record with only 5 attempts to run the ball. They are wondering how to replace Lucky…maybe they could try running the ball if Reilly can get over himself. 

    The Lions are definitely too pass happy and predictable. I miss the days of a healthy Dave Dickenson/Geroy Simon/Joe Smith offense. Very difficult to stop.

    Lions got smacked by the Bombers. Can really see the difference in talent and cohesiveness between the two clubs. If the Bombers don't win the Grey Cup, I'll be shocked. Most complete team in the CFL by far. 

    I hope the Lions take advantage of their bye week and regroup. They can't afford to fall too far behind now.

    Riders fans remind me of some isolated town in Texas or something with absolutely nothing going on, so the entire community gets really into their High School football team and shows up to all their games. They get really obnoxious about it and leave the other towns going "whats wrong with those people"?

    That's a great analogy, and really fits how those fans are. They win, they complain about the other team, the reffing, or anything else. They lose, they complain about the other team, the reffing, or anything else. A seriously annoying fanbase.

    That was a rough, rough loss. I was at the game, right on the goal line but the stupid TSN camera rig was in the way so I couldn't see the decisive Rider TD. 3 bad plays led to that loss, and I think the Lions win that one 9/10 times if the scenario is like that again with 3 mins remaining. Lions seemed like the more talented team but much more raw, Riders made some veteran plays and took advantage.

    Anyway, it still stings and Rider fans are the worst. They are the TML fans of the CFL with their posts and entitlement. I will really be cheering for the Riders to lose pretty much every game they play from here on out :D

    That was quite the effort the Lions put in vs the Riders to nearly come back, but it's already next game time. Lions vs Stamps tonight. Hate to say it, but I think we take an L in this one as well. Reilly is not starting and Mitchell always seems to play well against us.

    SO much so.  I watched the Winnipeg/Hamilton game last night with my Dad...was just really happy to have football back again.  (Am also a Bighill fan).

    I enjoy watching random CFL games as well. Not a Bomber fan but I do like Bighill.

    Very excited about this upcoming season. Reilly is an awesome quarterback and even though he played for the hated Eskimos, I couldn't help cheering for him and wishing him nothing but the best. He should gel quite well with Burnham and Carter. Hoping the Lions can make a run at a title this year
