Football Finale

So did you watch the Grey Cup game? Ya, neither did I.
Congratulations to the Saskatchewan Roughriders for winning their first title in however-many years, but honestly, we don’t care. The battle of the Prairies sounds about as boring as Bob Cole’s voice.
I watched the highlights of this match, and maybe it was an entertaining showing [...]

Finally, One More Week Left.

I tried to give the CFL a chance this year.
It failed.
Yes, the rules can produce an astoundingly exciting game, but when a team isn’t playing particularly well the results can be disastrous. The end game sequence especially.
The game’s final three minutes can draw comparisons to a basketball game. There’s simply no conceivable way to run down the [...]

Common Theme in Sports This Week?

There seems to be a recurring theme in the sporting world this week.
Trash talking.  Seems to be what all the members of the sports media want to talk about and all that the athletes and fans want to do to their opponents or rivals.
The latest case of talkin’ smack happened in Toronto, where Argos linebacker [...]

Sunday To Be Vancouver’s Best or Worst Day Ever

Sunday will be the best or worst day of 2007 in Vancouver.
The Lions are taking on those peskie Saskatchewan Roughriders and the rest of the wheat farmer bunch that make up ‘Rider Nation’ to move onto the 2007 Grey Cup. The Canucks are taking on the Minnesota Wild shortly after the Lions game in [...]

West Division Championship Preview: Lions and Roughriders

Once again, it’s going to be the Roughriders from Saskatchewan doing battle against the B.C. Lions for the right to represent the CFL’s West Division in the Grey Cup.
Getting sick of the rivalry already? Ha ha, of course not!
Being a west coast team, the Lions don’t really have a geographical rivalry so we had [...]

Scott’s Thoughts

Ed Willes has his, I have mine.

I’m really glad I didn’t watch the Seahawks’ blow a 21-3 lead to Cleveland, thank you Colts and Patriots for not subjecting me to that ridiculousness, and actually letting me watch a good football game.
Apparently the GMs in the NFL that had the top five picks in the [...]

Lions The Top of the Food Chain.

The B.C. Lions can inch closer towards something that, at times this season, looked as improbable as nice weather in October.
That goal that looked seemingly out of reach in August was to win the West Division and secure home field advantage in the Western Championship on November 17th.
Two losses in a row to [...]

Dave Dickenson to Dress Saturday Vs. Esks

What is Dave Dickenson trying to pull, and how selfish can he be?
The Leo’s offense is clicking, and clicking better and more efficiently than it was early in the season when Dickenson was under center, and was repeatedly pulled in favour of Buck Pierce.
Dickenson is obviously announcing that he’s ready to dress because in his [...]

It’s Just One Of Those Saturday’s

Do you ever have one of those Saturday’s where you just get up out of bed at the crack of noon, walk sorely to the couch in the television room, turn on the T.V. and realize that today is going to be a great day for watching sports?
Well, if you haven’t had one of those [...]
