October 26, 20204 yr comment_487539 Obviously, I'm biased, folks, but I don't see anyone taking the Grey Cup from us this year. No one can beat us.
October 26, 20204 yr comment_487566 No idea where to put this, but incredibly sad news out of the CFL, as David Braley has passed away. The man (and his $$$) saved the CFL multiple times over.
October 26, 20204 yr comment_487567 Unfortunate news indeed. Love him or hate him, he did way more for the CFL that we’ll ever know.
October 26, 20204 yr comment_487569 The CFL has relied on owners like Braley and Young, along with the community based teams forever. To be an owner of a CFL team, you need to willing to lose money sometimes and reinvest any surpluses back into the club. You must love the CFL or you won't last. Braley loved the CFL.
October 26, 20204 yr comment_487577 It would have been interesting to have a sit down with D. Braley and discuss his passion for the CFL game and the reasons he did what he did. It’s such a “CFL” kind of story and I would have loved to be in on it.
October 26, 20204 yr comment_487580 Agreed, his passion for CFL supported two teams and enriched every fan's CFL experience. He will be missed.

He will be missed. 3 teams...bailed out the TiCats after Ballard died, as well. The man was a known ******* within the BOG, but there's no question he absolutely LOVED the CFL...
October 26, 20204 yr comment_487585 I read a thing today (Naylor, maybe?) where, apparently, the Lions were about to fold, and CBC (the CFLs only broadcaster) was apparently going to stop broadcasting if there was no team in BC, so someone from the government went to Braley and told him about it, and that's how he jumped in to help them out the first time....
October 26, 20204 yr comment_487592 Wow much as I am not a fan of how he ran his teams that's a big loss for the CFL.
October 27, 20204 yr comment_487604 Sad to hear. Yeah, he loved the CFL for sure. It'll be interesting to see what happens to the Lions now.

Apparently one of his last wishes, after he realized he was dying, was to make sure there was a smooth transition of ownership of the Lions. I think it was Lalacheur or someone that said it. Said they'll be working with the estate to make sure that everything goes smoothly.

October 27, 20204 yr comment_487637 Sounded like there were various offers over the last few years, but Braley didn't think he was getting a fair deal, so he wouldn't let go. I'm not sure what the new owners will be like, but I'd bet we see a new, local owner in BC pretty quickly.
October 27, 20204 yr comment_487653 I doubt anyone is buying the Lions right away. Too many questions right now. We don't even know if we'll have a season next year.
October 27, 20204 yr comment_487659 Was this week the Bye week last year, before we went on that Magical tear for the Grey Cup....? I am going to rewatch each of those games on their corresponding anniversary. Damn, I miss Bomber football. Edited October 27, 20204 yr by wanna-b-fanboy
October 27, 20204 yr comment_487665 I think I've watched every win from last year at least a half dozen times so far. I'm glad I have them on the PVR, but at the same time it's really depressing. I love CFL football so much more than any other sport...
October 28, 20204 yr comment_487715 Nice to see the Argos embracing their heritage. Edited October 28, 20204 yr by Jacquie

I wonder if it makes more sense though to move the lions to the other side of the fraser river(or to burnaby or the coq). I dont feel like any thing can make the lions draw decent crowds in VC.
November 3, 20204 yr comment_488306 Nucks owners have said they are not interested in buying the Lions at this time....
