    Appreciate your hard work and all your insights you bring to our Lions football team. Greatly appreciated from the side of the pond can’t wait to get another season started with you guys.

    Can’t imagine how hard it is for you guys. But it’s greatly appreciated on the side of the pond. Your knowledge of each individual playing in peewee league always amazes me. Keep up the great work so proud you’re our fans and not somebody else’s.

    Go Lions.

You've got to nullify that front seven, you've got to make them think twice about sending so much at you, you've got to use all your play makers.
Ep 350 - Training Camp, Injuries, Roster Moves, 2022 draftees & a quiz
Q: Is Anzaloni worthy of having top eight money?
