TBURGESS

I think Ottawa would have won 3 more games with Masolli instead of Evans/Arbuckle. That would put them in 3rd place in the East. PLAP doesn't get fired now, maybe not fired in the off season.

Lose to Wpg by 2, Wpg by 7, BC with Rourke by 3, Riders & lose Masoli in game. Most teams in the CFL would be 0-4 in that situation. That's close games with the two best teams in the league at the time then lose your starting QB. I don't think most teams win with Caleb Evens as the QB.

Folks around here told me that HC's should get 3 years to make the playoffs if they inherit a bad team or maybe that's just MOS after applying 20-20 hindsight.

VAJ's best game in a long time. He needs to run to be effective and he did. I thought the Lions "Salmon going up stream" TD celly was hilarious. Hey PLAP... if your team scores FG's and the other team scores TD's, your gonna lose. No advantage to canning PLAP until the end of the season. Good coaches have jobs & no one else should own any part of this years team's performance. BC - TOR next week will be a big game to see if BC under VAJ is still a top club or if they're just beating up on bad teams like the redblacks.

1. Schoen - ROTY does it again 2. Demski - Killing his old team yet again 3. Leggz - Form tackling kicker? Are you freakin kidding me? HH: Walker for stuffing the 3rd down gamble in the 3rd when the Riders were making a comeback.

Sitting this argument out.

PLAP lost his starting QB. Does MOS look better, worse or about the same as PLAP if we lost Collaros?

Let me expand on it then. Another "you are right" means I was right, but wattabout something that doesn't matter to me being right. Better?

Sucker punching someone is way worse than talking smack, even if it is about their Mommy.

Sadly no.

Yet another you are right but.... posts.

Calgary has the best QB situation in the league by far. Maier backed up by BLM. It makes them the only team where an injury to the starting QB wouldn't make much if any difference. Every other team is one hit away from QB disaster.

That's what happens when a bend don't break defence has a bad day. It becomes a bend and break defence. Nothing to see here unless it happens again next game, then we'd have a problem.

1. Schoen - ROY and it's not even close now 2. Demski - Great TD 3. Brady O - Ran hard HH O'Leary-Orange - Big game for the big guy

Official call: (12:48) T. CORNELIUS Run QB Sneak (0 yds), T. CORNELIUS Fumble forced by D. SANKEY, Recovered by T. CORNELIUS at S1 (0 yds), Tackle: D. SANKEY, PLAY REVIEWED (Coach): Call Stands, CHALLENGE: Saskatchewan challenged for a fumble recovery. I'm not sure how Cornelius recovers a ball that was behind him, but that means you are right & I'm wrong. It was called a fumble and recovery by the Elks. Flame away folks.

It's not trolling or inciting or ranting or nonsense to say the right team should get the ball. It's completely logical.

Player safety? Sure, the extra 2 seconds on 2 or 3 plays a month are a player safety issue. Talk about a blowingly stupid thing to say. The reality is that the right team should always get the ball. If Refs on the field get it wrong, then the CC should be able to give the ball to the right team. 'No clear recovery' doesn't come into effect until after the whistle has blown. So, yes, the whistle is a big part of the problem. If they don't whistle until their has been a clear recovery, then the right team gets the ball, which is the only fair way to do things. You like to whatabout other plays instead of dealing with the play the Refs got wrong in the first place. I'm not talking about other plays and you know it. FTR: The Riders had chances to overcome the bad call, but that doesn't change the fact that their was a bad call that gave the wrong team 7 undeserved points. I say the rule is wrong because the wrong team gets the ball & it can be fixed without changes by simply waiting for the ball to be recovered. Last night the Elks got 7 points they didn't deserve because the refs got the call wrong & won by 2. In our Stamps game, we got 3 points we didn't deserve from a wrong call by the refs & won by 2. That's 2 games in the last month or so that have been won in a large part by a bad call by the refs giving the ball to the wrong team that couldn't be fixed by the CC.

You could, but it's easier to simply hold the whistle until the fumble is recovered. Still has nothing to do with the play in question.

I didn't like that ruling either.

Elks fumble on the 1. Refs get the call wrong. Riders recover after the whistle. CC can't change the possession. Elks get the ball back, get a TD they don't deserve and win by 2. I said it before and I'll say it again... The CFL needs to fix the fumble rules.

But who doesn’t wanna know when Estonian joined the European Union?!?

Any way to get rid of the "Today In History" that started showing up today?

I don't like folks pulling the race card when they get pulled over in the middle of the night for a sober check. I'm about as white as a person can be, and they've pulled me over for the check more than once.

You don't have to touch the pylon. It's breaking the plane of the goal line. That plane extends past the field of play. As long as the player was in bounds when he jumped and the ball goes past the plane before he touches the ground again, it's a TD.
