View Photo »Wally (Buono) talked about the one common denominator that we have and it's being 2011 Grey Cup champions
The Stanley Cup finals was seven games of building up and this is one game on Sunday, at the end of November, not in the middle of June, that will be three hours of hopefully Travis Lulay throwing a lot of touchdown passes to Geroy Simon.
Wally (Buono, Lions coach and general manager) talked about the one common denominator that we have and it's being 2011 Grey Cup champions ... This is one of the most special teams I've seen or been on, just the way we played together and stuck together through thick and thin. It's a great feeling that ...
And Wally went out and recruited a left tackle, which was big. Ben Archibald was the missing piece on their line, so they’ve protected him better, Andrew Harris has run the ball pretty well, and the young (receivers) matured over the year to catch (Lulay’s passes). And Geroy Simon’s a great teacher. The...
It's a business when it comes down to it, and not everyone will be here next year ... But we have one common thing that we share with each other. It's special this group -- very special -- and we'll cherish this for a long time.
The ’06 team might have had more talent
Travis is a true leader, man. He just kept working, just kept staying after it, and he came through in the end
I hope he comes back and coaches because he knows this team so well
This is the greatest feeling in the world
We started slow, and then we built our way back up ... We always remembered where we came from. We've always been humble. We're not taking anything for granted. We know we're a hot team, but we continue to put in the work.
Through all of his success he's stayed the same person ... He still works as hard as anybody I have seen at the quarterback position. He is very humble. He is willing to put in the work to be a great player. Even though he has had success, he is willing to put in that work to be a great player.
We are a totally different team ... We have totally different weapons and a totally different mind set.
We decided as a team, the losing stops
In '09, when we got to training camp, I was like, 'Buck, you lead, man. I'm going to step back.' Because for a while we didn't really have a vocal leader ... I said, 'You go ahead and lead the show. This is your show. I'm just a part of it.' Simon said that isn't a knock on Pierce, it's just the guy's p...
I've been playing professionally for 15 years and I'm not making this any more special than any other year that I've been in it ... This is what I trained for. This is what I play for throughout the year. And this is what we strive for as a team, trying to get to this game. Win or lose, I'm still going ...
They actually said they didn't want me back ... They were on a winning streak. They didn't want to mess with the chemistry.
I was ready to put some roots down and stay wherever I was going to be ... Look at all the guys who've had success in the league and started in Winnipeg. If Winnipeg keeps half of those guys, they win a Grey Cup. But they just let 'em go for some reason. I don't know what it is. I would imagine it's mon...
Ryan is still running by guys, he's still making the first guy miss ... He's not very vocal, but he'll pull a guy aside and offer some advice. He's been very good for us because he's good on the field and off the field. Probably better off the field for us because he can pass on knowledge.
J.R.’s been through a lot, from childhood to junior football to not going to university, having his opportunity taken away in Edmonton ... He’s a fighter. He’s shown a lot of heart.
We're a totally different team, totally different attitude, different makeup, different players ... It's a totally different situation with us and hopefully it'll be a totally different outcome then the last two times we played them.
We lost a member of our family
I can't even put into words how great this feels after the start we had
