BC Lions - 2016 Preview
2015 Review (7-11) (West Semi-Finals)
Jon "Azor Ahai" Jennings -
Our young vrigin Damon Sever... er I mean young stud Jonahan Jennings made an electrifying debut in week 13. This season was so bad our starting quarter back was injured and our back up got so hurt he fucking retired. But later, in week 15 the mother fucking prince that was promised decided he was tired after throwing for his fourth touchdown pass against the riders so he gave the ball to Andrew Harris, who gave the ball to Auston Collie, who threw the Ball to the Lord of Light in the endzone for his fifth touchdown on the night.
Did I mention we swept the Riders? -
Fuck the Riders
Jon Snow -
He fucked died
Episode VII -
It ruined Star Wars
Riche "The Lion" Leone-
Specialteams allstar Riche Leone had a rollar coaster of a season. He was good, he was bad, and he was ugly, and he was an All Star. Like all footmen in Lions history he pulls triple duty in Kicking, Punting, and Kickoffs.
I'm a flames fan not a Stamps fan... -
I dont even want to talk about it, but we beat the Riders, so fuck it... we lost to the Stampeders in the playoffs, after a turmoil filled season of sucktatude

Offseason News
The Vancouver Giants have moved into the Langley Events Centre, making the BC Lions the best hockey team in Vanoucver
Walley Buono has returned to the Bench as the Lions Head Coach replacing Jeff Tedford after resignation and looks to guide us to 4 wins against the Riders in 3 games. Figuring since Saskatchewan cant count to 12, why should we count to 3?
Training camp will be held at the beautiful Hillside Stadium in not-Kelowna BC in Kamloops. Just look at that fucking view
Allstar Canadian Andrew Harris makes the bigest mark on this team by leaving to go home to the Winnipeg "At least its not the Jets" Blue Bombers, where he looks to repeat as the West's best running back
The BC Lions first pick in the 2016 NFL Draft is big french canadian offensive lineman Charles Vaillancourt. He's gotta protect sweet, sweet, Ohio Jesus
Paul McCallum called his career to a close. The Jaromir Jagr of Kickers, McCallum signed with the Lions in no less than 4 occasions and suited up for 3 of them. He played 23 seasons and ended his career with a 1 day contract wih the Lions.
Oh yeah, and our jerseys are fucking terrible
Season Preview
Exceptations -
The BC Lions look to compete with the Vancouver Whitecaps for British Columbian Football Supremecy. The Vancouver Whitecaps took home the 2015 Canadian Championship for a birth in the North American Champions League. The BC Lions look the beat the team that worships Watermelon and score more than the Atlanta Thrashers in Winnipeg.
Offense -
Can We replace the best player on our team? Maybe, maybe not. Hopefully former NFLer Anthony Allen can double his career rushing TDs
We have a Goalie controversy once AGAIN in vancouver. Travis Lulay, all star ginger, enters training camp as the backup. How will things look at the end of the season?
Emmanual Arceneaux needs to repeat his success, he's got the pass support in Jennings and Lulay, as long as he can catch the ball he'll get the TDs. No reason he shouldnt hit double digets.

Deffence -
if Mrabure-Ajufo continues his development and finds a place hopefully we can play some New Jersey Devils offence and get some solid tackles.
If he doesnt, then we need Soloman Elimimian to bounce back from Injury. He is an good ol canadian all star from Nigeria and if he plays well we might not even need to play offence in the first place.
Overall -
We have some good young players, but at the end of the day we need to compete. We have proven we can beat the worst of the worst, its going to take some work to beat the best of the best. We have to play with confidence and get some pucks on net
Personally, I hope to see us get rid of that shitty white covering that takes away half our stadium. We should be full to the brim, we're the fucking Lions, we fucking Roar
Please think of adopting your own little lion at the BC SPCA today. The SPCA now has the ability to sort by a babies intake day so you can see which little one needs to get out the soonest. Spread the word
