No clue .. I'd even ask .. when did the injury happen? Thought he came out of the game relatively unscathed. Maybe Jay-Z stepped on it.

Nice to see those "full" stadiums ...
Other than lowering ticket prices not sure what you can do about it. And that just means fuller stands but the gate revenue stays the same. What we need is some inter-generational attendance, fathers taking sons and daughters, grandparents taking grandkids to games, so the kids can appreciate seeing a game live. In the bigger centers, all you seem to have are hipsters and yuppies, none of whom want to participate in anything unless it is cool or hip. The CFL isn't cool or hip right now in Vancouver or Toronto. A lot of sports are seeing declines in interest. Golf is really going downhill. Kids would rather just sit at home playing video games then going outside and playing or watching a sport. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFEYC4Z44v0

Our tickets for the Lions game were $30 a pop. We were sitting in the Family zone on the second tier. It was actually pretty full. There are no bad seats in that barn. Too bad they can't get more people out. It just pisses me off. Vancouver sucks.

Not really a good trade. I'd rather see Kelly in for Bryant.

Yeah is there a reason that blackouts were lifted? I talked to people on Saturday in Vancouver about the low attendance and they just shrugged and said "I just watched it on TV". So at some point there's going to be only 10,000 people showing up for games as everyone sits at home? I have to say that there is nothing like a game in person, even in a morgue like BC Place with it less than half full.

Ahem ... Kevin Glenn ...
Perhaps this will lead to less inter-family procreation in Saskatchewan if the males are all preoccupied with Sunseri...

What's his injury? Good grief. I hope Kelly is back.

Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming It appears Jason Vega will remain out of the #Bombers lineup again this week. Not very involved at all today.

What's sad though is that if the Lions make it to the Grey Cup again this year, BC Place will be full of fake fans decked out in Lions gear that won't have seen a regular season game in person or on TV all season. I saw it in 2011 and it was just pathetic. Most of the "Lion" fans there couldn't name any other player other than maybe Lulay or Geroy.

They should have kept Tempire and imploded BC Place after the Olympics. There seems to be no point to having a stadium that big in Vancouver when no one seems interested in attending any sporting events in that town. What a waste.

Week 5 Power Rankings
Does anyone know when this wasn't the case? I've been following the CFL for at least 35 years and I don't remember a year when the East wasn't weaker than the West.

yup sit Grigsby, start Cotton. Keep Woods at punt and kick off returns. Handled internally, we're done. Next question.

And I cannot argue with logic like this. I disagree. I think KBF was way off base here.

Let's hope its Cuthbert and Suitor for all of them.

We'd go back to the same roster we had in game one and two when Greaves was healthy, correct?- Winnipeg vs. Hamilton discussion thread
When it comes to hot reads, Rod Black agrees with your assessment of Giguere.- Number Two QBs
The only time I saw Willy was his dramatic comeback against us in 2012 in the Banjo Bowl, after Burke the tactician decided to punt rather than go for the field goal. His last minute drive to win the game was very similar to his game-winning drive against Montreal. The guy doesn't quit and wants to win very badly. That's about all I knew and that was good enough for me to at least give him a chance with us. So glad we got him instead of Zach or Frank.- Winnipeg vs. Hamilton discussion thread
so we can go three Nationals on the O-Line this game? Woot!- Ahem ... Kevin Glenn ...
Those Tim Hortons are in Detroit though, not exactly an economic powerhouse right now, and of course, Tim's isn't as popular as in Canada. Americans don't know what a "double double" is. - Winnipeg vs. Hamilton discussion thread
