On this edition of Ï㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥˜MOJ on SportsÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™, host Bob Marjanovich talks with Travis Lulay the former CFL quarterback who spent his entire career with the BC Lions. Born in Oregon, Lulay attended Montana State University, where he played college football as a quarterback.

After going undrafted in the 2006 NFL Draft, Lulay signed with the Seattle Seahawks but was released before the start of the regular season. He then spent the next few years playing in the Arena Football League and the NFL Europe before signing with the BC Lions in 2009.

The former Lions says, Ï㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥˜I had a really healthy respect for the (CFL) game coming up and thereÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™s no question that because I was in Montana and they were following Dave Dickinson that I knew that IÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™d been following what was going onÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™.

Lulay quickly established himself as one of the CFLÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™s top quarterbacks, leading the Lions to a Grey Cup championship in 2011 and earning the gameÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™s Most Valuable Player award. He was also named the CFLÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™s Most Outstanding Player in 2011 and was a two-time CFL All-Star (2011, 2016).

Throughout his career, Lulay was known for his intelligence, leadership, and ability to make clutch plays in critical situations. He was also highly respected by his teammates and coaches for his work ethic and his dedication to the game.

Unfortunately, LulayÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™s career was plagued by injuries, and he was forced to retire in 2019 due to a chronic shoulder problem.

Ï㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥˜IÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™m one of the lucky ones, I got to do it. IÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™ve got to live that dream out. Obviously thereÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™s some heartbreaking moments, but thatÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™s life, right? Like thatÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™s just life, itÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™s not all smooth sailing and I got to live out some pretty awesome onesÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™, says Lulay.
