OT: Parabola Memorial B.C. Lions 2023 Thread

[VanJack]

Not an LL Cool J fan, but the guy puts on a show. He certainly didn't phone it in.

The whole GameDay experience is night and day to pre covid times. I was talking to an old guy in the concourse, almost @Chairman Maouth age. He said he hadn't been to a game since the season back at Empire. Last year convinced him to come to a game again. Had to dig through the attic for his old Brent Johnson jersey. Doman isn't just bringing in new fans, he's giving old fans a reason to come back again.

Also Edmonton...yeesh. I don't think they made it inside our 40 yard line.

Watchin' that TSN panel groovin' out to the sounds of L.L. Cool J was a sight to behold. Makes you remember that attending a pro sports game is supposed to be 'fun'.

We've all been beaten down by too many dismal nights at Rogers Arena.

 

[Chairman Maouth]

Dunnigan is the best.

7-3

 

[Chairman Maouth]

Lions looking solid.

7-3 early in the 2nd.

 

[Chairman Maouth]

10-3

 

[Chairman Maouth]

Penalties are killing the Bombers.

"Do you not know the rules?" - Dunnigan.

Adams looking good.

 

[Chairman Maouth]

Defense comes up huge.

Bombers 2nd and goal and Lions come up with the sack. Hold Bombers to a FG. 10-6 at the half.

I spoke too soon.

Less than a minute in the half. On the last play of the half Lions complete an amazing run for a TD.

17-6.

Adams is completing passes that I don't think at first glance are completions. But they are.

 

[Chairman Maouth]

Adams getting it done in the air and on the ground.

 

[Chairman Maouth]

23-6 late in the third.

"That's a lot of humanity down there just going nuts." - Dunnigan

I swear Dunnigan is drunk tonight. Seems a little off even for his standards.

You broke my solo streak.

Lions are the real deal. Interception deep in Bombers territory.

And touchdown.

30-6

9 min. left in game.

 

[Chairman Maouth]

The defence stats for the Lions are going to be amazing. Adams' stats are going to be amazing.

There was a hold on a Lion on that play.

 

[Petey O]

This is the best I've seen this team play in ages. If this is this team now.. Wow.. Potential dynasty

 

[Chairman Maouth]

LMAO @ Betts blowing kisses to the Winnipeg crowd.

 

[Chairman Maouth]

Speaking of the Winnipeg crowd...

"It's like a house party. Who invited these people!" - Dunnigan

 

[Wry n Ginger]

Offense and Defense played amazing tonight. Dunnigan seemed to only get excited when Winnipeg was doing something on offense. Is he a BB homer?

 

[Chairman Maouth]

What a game. What a team.

I didn't get that impression.

 

[Jyrki21]

Very nice, first “big test” passed with flying colors.

 

[Canuckle1970]

WOOOOO !!! What a beat down. The Leos were so aggressive on both sides of the ball right from the 1st quarter.
And the D never let up. Bombers just couldn't recover.

Can't wait for the return bout on Aug. 3.

I think Dunnigan was stunned by what he was seeing, same as the crowd, as the Bombers rarely lose at home. He gave the Leos full credit for their win.

Stunned is right! The defensive line was beyond dominant tonight. Just taking whatever they wanted in the BB's house. Crazy night.

 

[Canuckle1970]

Another thing, Vernon Adams had some beautiful throws tonight. He's made me feel a lot better after losing Rourke.

 

[Wry n Ginger]

Agreed. He looked really composed tonight. Grey Cup odds might change a bit after this game.

 

[The Stig]

The boys were hot tonight! Holding the Bombers to 6 points at home? 7 sacks?? The hype is real.

 

[Wry n Ginger]

Lions +56 point differential after this game. That's not bad.
