OT: Parabola Memorial B.C. Lions Thread IV

[passive voice]

At least they’re not the Whitecaps

 

[VanJack]

Even Milt Stegall and the TSN Panel are saying the same thing.....Reilly can't keep taking the punishment he's taking. Typical of the Lions. They go out and break their budget under the salary cap for a QB, then can't draft, trade a sign a single O-lineman to protect him.

But it's more than the O-line. This is currently the worst tackling defense in the entire CFL. They're awful, particularly in fourth quarters. And unlike the old days, you can't launch the NFL airlift of cuts to plug the gaps. Those guys just don't exist any more. So it is what is, I guess.

They're worse at this point. This is Ottawa Renegades bad.

From the Whitecaps thread:

At least they’re not the Lions

They're worse at this point, IMO. This is Chivas USA bad.

Whitecaps and Lions trying desperately to outsuck each other in the vacuum created by the Canucks being awful for four straight years.

At least nobody's the Warriors

I saw what he did in both threads, and I couldn't disagree with him on either.

 

[VanJack]

Both the Whitecaps and the Lions have to be nervously looking at the bottom line...the hot weather has finally arrived, and there's lot of diversions in Metro Vancouver. Battling the traffic downtown to sit in a humidor stadium like B.C. Place to watch two mediocre pro sports teams isn't likely at the top of anyone's agenda.

And I understand the Whitecaps are just set to launch their season ticket drive for next season. Yikes!

 

[Hit the post]

Right now the BC Lions couldn't even beat that pathetic gang "The Rogues" much less THE gang of Coney Island (The Warriors):

 

[VanIsle]

Why was Reilly still playing at the end of the game.

Claybrooks put your hat on straight bud.

Tackling was beyond horrendous, this team is in serious trouble.

 

[The Nemesis]

Finished up with the Blue Jays game and turned on the Lions just in time to see....


Reilly get sacked.


Yyyyyyyyyyep.

EDIT:

and a kick return TD against too!

Fantastic!

 

[Brock Boeser Laser Show]

I'm not sure what's worse.... watching the whitecaps or the lions. Both need massive overhauls on and off the field.

can't block and can't tackle. I've seen better fundamentals in pop warner.

 

[Get North]

This drive has such great playcalls. Why can't they play like this more often?

What if they just swapped each others' rosters and were forced to play the other sport. Would anyone notice?

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

Where did the Lions find their rookie head coach? Is he a friend of the gm?

 

[DaBadGuy316]

Burn it down.

I think the better question is why did Jarious Jackson get extended? his play calling is trash yet lions gonna lion.

This team needs a quality president and better coaching. Oh and better talent evaluators. Pretty obvious there was a lack of import talent brought in.

 

[Brock Boeser Laser Show]

Burn it down.

We don't get nice things like that here. We have terrible and clueless ownership in the Vancouver sports scene.

 

[DaBadGuy316]

Im on crutches right now and I could get past our o-line. Its absolutely ridiculous.

 

[Brock Boeser Laser Show]

and the D line gets no push. Run over on every single play.

Never seen a team so bad in the trenches or a team this bad at tackling.

 

[ProstheticConscience]

Challenge goes the Lions' way, then a 2 and out. This team is so bad.

 

[ProstheticConscience]

26-3 a couple of minutes from the half, more inability to execute basic football. I miss 45 minutes ago before I remembered there was a game on today at 4.

Sure it isn't just good ol' nepotizz?

That would be so Vancouver

 

[The Nemesis]

I noticed there's some signboard adds on the far side of the field from the camera that are plugging an ambulance-chaser law injury law firm.

Think we could start a class-action suit for severe emotional trauma from watching this team?

 

[The Nemesis]

I'm still waiting for a late flag on that return. Because of course there would be one the way this season has gone.

 

[The Nemesis]

That uncomfortable cringe on Stegall's face at the question of whether the Lions' o-line would be any better by now is basically this season in a nutshell.
