Busy making the Lions and Canucks great again. I picked Hamilton to win. What do I know ?? Winnipeg fully deserving to be Grey Cup champions. Their defensive and offensive lines dominated.

Good to see your post buddy.
I'm positive the Lions will have an exciting year.
Even if they do not get the Cup at least play exciting games.
Fans pay $$$ & they pay the bills.
Fans deserve to get their $$$ worth.
If Bombers can keep their team together they just may repeat.
Remember the Eskimos domination in 70s/80s...
What was it 4-5 Cups in a row !!!

Winnipeg Blue Bombers
Why not Manitoba Blue Bombers ?
Like BC Lions.
Like Sk Roughriders.
Lions should wear their. 1960s uniform / helmet logo ..then they will ROAR again.
Like the mummy comes alive again in horror films.

But the winning Bombers who dominated the Grey Cup game from start to finish in every position ..
and as FA said big time in the trenches ..D & O line but will this be the same team next yr?
If they get back 99% of their players watch out...but over 20 players will have to be resigned.
Contracts expire.
Loyalty to team or will CASH waved infront of their noses have them leave to resign with a dif. CFL team ?

Lions named Rick Campbell as the next head coach.

Lions named Rick Campbell as the next head coach.

Big surprise.
Never saw that coming.
He's a young coach 48 & if he can guide the Lions into 1st place finishes or winning seasons he could be a long term  H C.
He's got experience.
Ottawa had a worst record than the Lions in 2019.
He was born in Wa. State so he may feel quite comfy coaching so closeby.
Mike Reilly I believe is from Washington St. too.
Ed H the Lion GM seems to have good chemistry with Coach Campbell.
Hope Rick C. has the good blend of being a tough but fair coach.
This past year when his team was behind he looked too quiet on the sidelines Tv tsn games.
Guess I like a coach with more expression...Vic Rapp or Dave Ritchie types.
But we will find out.
BC Lions have a history of head coaches being hired for 1-2 yrs. & then "bye".
Not very many coaches in BC have stayed long time. Exceptions of course. D Matthews D Ritchie W Buono E Keys are a few...
Will Rick Campbell be a good fit...time will tell. Mix feelings on this guy.
He may surprise. Hope so.
