TBURGESS

No one is going to be in the perfect position to make the 'right' call every time. That's a totally unrealistic expectation. Even if you had 24 refs, each one watching a single player, you wouldn't have the perfect angle for every play. The command center is better than nothing. They do a great job of binary calls, like in or out, catch or no catch. It's the rules that call for the ref to make a judgement in real time that are questionable. Is the jersey tug enough for PI? Is the push off enough for DPI? Is it a pick or a rub? No command center might have cost us a Grey Cup when Dinwiddie's pass was 'picked'. No one wants to go back. Looking at where the ball was when the knee touched out of bounds... For the command center to be accurate, they'd need to have two sync'd cameras. One on the sideline to show the exact sub-second the knee touched and one directly in line with the ball to see where it was when the knee touched. Obviously, that's a totally unrealistic expectation. Guessing, based on the camera angles they had, isn't 'clear and obvious' so the call wasn't overturned. If it had been called a first down, it wouldn't have been overturned either. That's the way the command center is supposed to work.

The last two posts show what the real problem is. What's very clear to one fan isn't to another. Refs make their calls in real time. It's a sub-second decision based on a single point of view. The fact that they aren't over turned very often, shows that they are doing a pretty damn good job. If you have to say that the camera angle isn't right to prove your right, then you're wrong, not the refs.

It's better to lose now than in the playoffs.

Stop searching for golden showers then.

He'll always be the the Mayor of Picktown to me.

Our MOP & MOC should be Brady O.

I don't mind Kate. I'd get rid of Milt & Baker. Replace them both with PLAP. Sanchez or Muamba so we have 1 player and 1 coach. Matty can go to color. His enthusiasm for the game is contagious. I also like Ford and Ferguson. Replace the rest one a year with younger guys. I like the idea of Straight Fire, but stop the stupid screaming and just show the plays. Forced humor is worse than no humor. Talk about the game instead. No interviews while the play is going on. Move them to the half time show.

It's BC's O Line more than what other teams are doing. Rourke's getting pressure from 2 of the 3 guys rushing before he gets 3 steamboats.

I forgot to hit enter one week and lost 3 wins.

I'm here daily. Just got tired of having to argue every time I posted anything.

Don't let Collaros get hurt.

Maybe it's actually the rampant attacks.

Trump is a lying sack of Cheeto dust. He isn't a good leader at all. If you actually read what I think a leader is you'd know that. He embodies everything that a leader shouldn't be. I have my answer. It's both purposely misreading and being dense. Nah... It's the same folks who simply have to create an argument every time I post anything.

The single point for a tie means that Calgary and Sask can tie in the standings so who wins the season series is back in play.

Are you trying to provoke me yet again by purposely misreading what I'm saying or are you just that dense? You're confusing being a good minion with being a good leader. Leaders don't get out of the way. They lead the way. Leaders follow other leaders when they agree with them, not blindly. That's the whole point of my MAGA example and yes, it does show our lack of progress too.

Reminder... Never work for me! You have the deadly combination of ignorance combined with arrogance. Blindly following isn't leadership. Putting yourself 2nd is a definition of a follower. I want honesty in my leaders. Saying the 'right thing' when you think your leader is wrong is dishonest. Note: This doesn't mean you can't support your team. It means that you shouldn't blindly support people above you in the chain of command. Leaders sell the dream and get buy in to that dream. That's why it was the "I have a dream speech", not the "this other guy has the dream and I'mma gonna follow it" speech. MAGA's follow their leader blindly and make excuses for his behavior. They are committed to the team and the result, putting themselves 2nd to their great leader. Anyone who thinks that makes them leaders themselves are simply wrong about leadership.

What you're calling a leader, I call a yes man. Simply parroting your boss is called following. Leaders lead. Followers follow. Leaders aren't followers and followers aren't leaders. Players play for themselves and for the common goal. It's not one or the other.

I don't want any player to be OK with being pulled. I don't want any player to pretend that they support a coaching decision that they don't. A good leader is honest and committed not happy to be pulled and supportive of bad decisions.

I wish I'd forgotten to hit submit this week instead of last week.

Rourke finally finds some success at the end of the half and you bench him? VAJ looks as rusty as Rourke did in his first game and you keep playing him? WTF?

I tried a bunch of IPTV's. None of them worked well, especially for sports. I use Kodi + Real-Debrid ($5/Month) for everything that isn't sports. I have a OTA (Over the air) antenna for local stuff & NFL (Free after the OTA Antenna). I get TSN streaming during CFL season.

I can't believe that I forgot to hit submit last week.

What do folks think we'll be willing to give up for a 2nd string QB from another team?

Beating the Lions isn't the same as beating the Als.
