The Packers drafted Johnny Holland in 1987 in the second round from the University of Texas A & M. He played with the Packers until he retired in 1993. He then moved on to coaching, first with the Packers as a defensive quality control coach, and then with the Seahawks, Lions, Texans and Raiders as either linebackers coach or defensive assistant.

In 2001, Holland was inducted into the Packers Hall of Fame.

The BC Lions are the oldest professional sports franchise in Vancouver and have won the Grey Cup a total of six times, most recently in 2011. They have made the playoffs every year for the last 17 seasons.
