In case of emergency...

For no reason whatsoever, here is some information on the professional football team based closest to Alaska.

The BC Lions of the Canadian Football League have a proud and distinguished history.  Founded in 1954, they have won five Grey Cups, the most recent coming in 2006.  With a steady, proven hand at the helm in Wally Buono, who has been in charge since 2003, they appear free of the misjudgments and management drama that have affected other professional football teams in the, er, region. 

Although the 2009 campaign culminated in elimination, it was nonetheless eventful.  They tried five different quarterbacks, but the team did find its way into the playoffs and even advanced with a big overtime win against the Tiger-Cats.  Alas, the Montreal Alouettes ended the dream in the eastern final, sending the Lions down to an ignominious 56-18 defeat.

Yeah.  Stable, successful coaching.  A winning record.  Playoff victories.  Interested, sailor?

As a friend once said in a strangely analogous situation..."it's a chillingly plausible possibility..."
