I didn't realize until the other morning that the Lions get zero profit from the concession sales. I honestly think that's a complete load of BS. How can a major sports team not get a cut of the sales for all the food/beer sales.

Because pavco or whatever owns BC place unlike the aqualinis and rogers arena.
Yea it’s pretty fucked and also why the concessions are so bad, they don’t really have an interest in over staffing when it’s basically just doing the lions a favour

For the love of Andorian Ale............ tired from replacing fence panels, I took a seniors nap. Woke up and realized I missed the Lions season opener. Thankfully, I recorded it and thankfully, the concert wasted some time. Didn't miss much. Dat Nathan Rourke's mom.......... nice.
To sum up the game so far, "The Butler did it!"

Usually, it's the Lions that get charged with stupid penalties. The Elks are shooting themselves in the foot tonight.
TJ Lee got ripped off. Down by contact?
Fans are loving' this game. This is what we need - a team that brings it!
Uh........... Nathan's mom, grandma, and great grandma at the game........... yikes. Cougar, and Wildcat. Gotta have a lion in there somewhere. Oh, that'd be Nathan.
Impressive, he is. Shai Ross......... https://www.thestar.com/sports/footb...videos.html?rf
I wANder how many tooks that take to get the oreo dip, clip..........

This Lions beatdown of the Elks is impressive!
It’s been how long since BC had a lopsided win over an opposing team?

-good to see two Canadian QBs play in the same game. Rourke starting the game and Michael O’Connor getting some reps as the backup near the end of the game.
59 points from the offence Hahhaha.
Four interceptions for the Lions defence.

I think the word "lopsided" was created to describe the losses by the lions.

At least yesterday there was a Guest DJ she kept things bumpin… they have a new mascot named Roary who’s much more agile…. The cheerleaders are now called the “Uproar Dance Team” instead of “Lions Pride” and they have a lot of fun video segments on the crowd… giveaways… people were really getting into the songs like Bohemian Rhapsody they kept going to diff people and they’re all going crazy… they did a “Show your Simba” thing and everyone in the crowd was holding their kids out like the Lion King movie scene etc
Not sure if this is all just cuz it’s the home opener or not though.

Damn............. kept the Argos from crossing the goal line twice from the one yard line. How the hell did Toronto not get it done? Zero points. Big turnover. Hope this is sign of things to come. D Fence getting it done. Roarke is amazing 7-0 so far and knocking at the door again. 17-3 lead now. Stay healthy, stay healthy, stay healthy.............
Bobbled snap, haven't seen that in a while.
20 -3 lead at the half.
Really physical game. Quite a few Lions injured. On a side note. BC has always had great kickers. Lui Passaglia was a legend. Most points scored by any football player ever, in any league. Flintoft is carrying on that tradition. Averaging 61+ yards. Sean Whyte not too shabby (South Surrey Rams and Semiahmoo Secondary graduate).
Back to Passaglia........... amazing record. https://bcsportshall.com/honoured_member/lui-passaglia/
Gotta mention him at least once every year in a BC Lions thread.

Kid, Nathan Rourke, sets a CFL passing record for most yards in a game (436 yds) in a 44-3 beating ... not bad! https://www.tsn.ca/nathan-rourke-bc-...n-qb-1.1817800 | |

Judging by the amount of children and young folk in the crowd, looks like the owner is doing a great job of promoting the CFL. Plenty of children involved in playing football already. By bringing them out to games to watch a successful team that features local talent? Gold.
As for the injuries suffered by the Lions yesterday, I hope Bo Lokombo is doing okay. When he came over as a kid in middle school, he towered over the rest of the boys. When he played for Mouat Secondary, everyone knew he’d make it as a professional athlete.

Lions vs Redblacks in Ottawa
Masoli vs Roarke
Mike Benevides is Ottawa's defensive coordinator, so we should be good, lol.
Roar, Lions, ROAR!!!!!

The real test. Home game vs the Blue Bombers. Last year's Grey Cup Champions.
If we can keep up with Winnipeg, that would be a positive. Kickoff in a few minutes.............. on TSN. 211.
For the love of Mother Mary, Winnipeg 7-0 lead on a kickoff return (first play). Untouched 76 yarder.
Well, looks like uphill all the way. Down 21-0 at end of first quarter. Comeback is not possible against a team like Winnipeg. Knew Lions would lose today, but not by a huge margin. Oh well. First major was a kickoff return, but when Roarke got picked off, it was sign of things to come.

Oh - My - Fucking - God!!!
SUBWAY!!!!!! Stop airing your retarded ads. Featuring the biggest fucktard of all time, Mark, I'll Mess You Up, Messier. This is BC. He is public enemy number one. Until you stop airing that commercial I, along with Canucks fans from past, present, and future, will never step inside another Subway Restaurant again. FFS.............. /rant.
