Friends and Family night at BMO as the Elks score first

Not a bad half of football, the Elks are no easy out this year

Yeah I hate to say it but Edmonton would probably beat us right now too. 

[bustamente]

That RB pass int deep in their own zone cost the Argos as the Elks take the lead on a Mac Beth TD pass

[JuranBoldenRules]

Mitchell almost spiked that ball then realized he wasn't touched and could keep running.

[bustamente]

I think that was a correct review down by contact

I hate the ones where it's a completely incidental graze to make a guy down.  Defender should have to be making an effort to tag the guy down or tackle him.

Err on the side of the big play.

As Ford pointed out, the defender glanced the helmet with his hand “before” the catch was made. But they got a TD almost immediately after. So…

That same arm tapped the receiver on the shoulder while the DB was going ass over tea kettle and the receiver had the ball.  Clearly touched him when he had possession, but just completely incidental the guy wasn't making any effort to take Mitchell down.  So I'd say should be a TD.

Pretty good game too bad CFL football is dead in Toronto

[Rod Black]

Well Dublanko did “contact “ the kicker.

Camera person takes a huge hit and a shoe goes flying

[BaconNBigBlue]

Haggerty has an Oscar winning flop after that tap by Edmonton. 

[JuranBoldenRules]

Jones put two returners out and they still let the ball hit the turf.

That will cost them the game.  Catch that ball at the 15 and get a 5 yard return big difference than letting it roll to goal-line and starting drive at own 5.

[bustamente]

Well at least we have company at 0-3

Lots of material for comments on that collision. 

[Goalie]

Edmonton is currently better than us. I’m not sure Hamilton is tho. 

[Noeller]

It's not particularly close that we are the worst team in the league. I'm honestly debating going to that **** hole McMahon next weekend because we're absolutely going to lose...

Go to the game. Win or lose that's your club. You've stuck by them through worse when they had no hope.

This year, they may actually pull their heads out and be a veteran team that comes together for a late run.

 

 

As for the 18 time Champions: our rookies at corner are getting torched. And until they figure it out, we literally have no backups for them on the depth chart. This is a big issue. Great athletes... But MBT (who we have to say can still zip that ball) took advantage of them all night.

 

Edit to add: I'd be remiss if I didn't give laurels to Cameron Dukes. 18/21 and two of those weren't misses, they were throwaways. And he's a murderer in the Red Zone.

Yeah, go to the games.  
I’m not giving up any of my pre-bought tickets, **** it. 
I don’t regret going to any Bomber games, especially ones I’ve travelled for.

I am not optimistic but I am still going to go to all the home games and watch all the road games. I may start picking players going against the Winnipeg D is fantasy football though.

[Stickem]

Bailey got a nice td throw from Dukes, more than Collaros has been throwing here lately......Janarion looked pretty good on punt returns AND in their offence......hmmmmmmm

[17to85]

On the other hand Smith didn't look awful returning kicks for us.

I wonder IF we'll see Smith in our offensive scheme.....We could use that

[bluto]

Grant and Haggerty flipped the field for us.

 

I saw someone around here opine that he looked like he'd lost a step... I've seen him in camp, practice and games... That guy's speed just jumps at you. Astonishing.
