I forgot they were even playing again to be honest... looked them up and saw they're 5-1 and that Rourke isn't even around anymore/went to Jacksonville, who the heck is this another new guy that's pretty good!

Vernon Adams Jr. (Not from Vernon, BC, gulolol).

He came to the Lions via Mount Royal Alouettes last year. Smart move on the Lions part. Adams has been around for quite some time. Back and forth between teams, always coming back to Montreal.

Anyway, not sure who the backup QB is. Injuries can be devastating for a team.

Dane Evans the backup QB to Adams Jr. is doing a decent job in this game, but friggin' hell............... the Elks are shooting themselves in the foot. 130+ yards in penalties so far in the first half.

16-0 for BC at Half Time.

2022 BC Lions

Go Lions go! Roar Lions roar! Shutout win!

Edmonton Elks suck hahaha.

How bad is that team at home?

The Elks have the record for the longest home losing streak in professional North American sports.

I've never felt so sorry for a team. I called a good friend of mine today. He lives in Edmonton and is a big fan. I told him this might be the end of the losing streak. It's almost like an Armenian curse has been put on them. Touchdown called back. The interceptions, fumbles, etc. Stupid penalties.

Lol the Lions had their first shutout since 1977 earlier in the season against you guessed it the Elks and they get another shutout today against yup the Elks.

Brutal game. Blue Bombers are a much better team. On paper and in play. Blue Bombers were caught off guard the last game.

This game is a write off. That pass interference call, like W-T-F? Cooper just panicked. So much for the doughnut boys...........

Anyway, Evans throwing interceptions left, right, and right down the middle. Oh well, it is what it is............. prepared for a blow out. Next game at home against the Stamps. Hopefully, the Lions will get their shit together. Come back angry.

Was at the game today and saw that on the mumbo jumbo tron. Fans loved it, but some tears.......... of joy for him.

On a side note. The alumni cheering squad. Damn, they're good. Still got the moves. So coordinated and choreography was good, too. So distracting............ trying to watch the game here, ladies.

Game Time!

Not a great start, but game is young.

Green TD after a turnover. Mosaic is always loud - no exception today.


Roar, Lions, ROAR!!!!!!

Yeah, it's going to be one of those games where everything goes wrong. Not looking good. Going to be a long game for Adams Jr.

Oh well. One half left to turn it around.

Valiant effort. Can't win 'em all.


What's with Perkins? Trying to throw the game? Gulolololol.

Nathan Rourke released/waived by Jaguars ... that's too bad! I thought when he went down to NFL to interview, they kinda gave him a guarantee. Feel for the guy, hope someone picks him up. OR, you can always come back to the BC Lions and help us out for the back half of the season.

If he's in that between CFL/NFL tier, he might end up in XFL or USFL since I'm pretty sure they pay more

Wow that’s some NFL politics for you, he vastly outperformed the backup there, like it wasn’t even close if that’s the metric things are based on.

I think experience is pretty important for backup QBs, and Beathard has been around for 6 seasons now.

Lions much better at first down conversions in this game. They're down 7-6 early in the second quarter vs Mount Royal. Away game.

Sean White with a field goal 10-6
