seems odd to run a hitch screen where you don't put a blocker on the man directly opposite the receiver -- forces Whitehead to go inside where Calgary can rally. they've done it twice now. guess they're figuring that Whitehead can beat his man one-on-one.

BC replacement running back struggling -- drops an easy swing pass and falls down on a play where he had a bunch of room to run for a 1st down. gotta get that kid settled down.

settling in to watch Lions / Stamps. Think the Stamps are going to surprise here.

nice catch there by Tim "take a knee" White

The pyramiding rule: so yeah, you can see why the official called it, but it sure didn't look intentional in the replay.

just tuning in. I like the Argo look with oxford pants and cambridge socks. hope Harris isn't hurt longterm good luck to #81 Argos too. stupid freak injuries

hell, why does anyone store paper documents these days? scan 'em, put 'em on an encrypted flash drive, burn the originals, scatter the ashes.

bending but not breaking

are the RTP rules different if the QB is rolling outside the tackles?

collapsed the pocket real nice there.

yeah, def not time to panic yet. it is kinda sad to see the GOAT shilling for a betting outfit.

just tuning in. those hockey jerseys aren't too bad but good god the combo with the blue pants is ugly. football pants should be a different color than a football jersey.

hmmm, Lee's Summit. Checks out.

Nik Lewis and Wes Cates tossing MBB some red meat here. https://3downnation.com/2022/08/08/his-skill-set-is-very-limited-former-cfl-all-stars-wes-cates-nik-lewis-agree-riders-qb-cody-fajardo-is-not-elite/

did anyone catch the real crucial block that Woli threw on the Bailey TD? Montreal blitzed their halfback and he was headed at Collaros untouched at full sprint -- Woli, who is on the other side of the formation, books it across the line to get there just in time to steer the HB away. If ZC is one-on-one with the blitzing halfback that's probably not a touchdown. meanwhile ZC is completely undistracted by all this. He does a little matador step away, emerges untouched from the potential pileup, and spies Bailey for 7. Just a real great team play. I can't believe how good at football the Bombers are.

well, not to be too negative about it, but Harris hasn't been great this year with the exception of the Rider game, where he picked up more than a third of his season rushing yardage. (heh. loved seeing 33 trucking against Regina like in days of yore.) so if you're looking at BO and Harris and you see they're producing comparably, all that means is that neither team has gotten consistent RB1 production this year. hopefully Brady's recent upward trend continues.

Is that the same Rebel Media as the Canadian one?

whoah

Too late. Four more state-level abortion votes are already scheduled in November, and Michigan will be five once their Secretary of State verifies and approves the petition. https://ballotpedia.org/2022_abortion-related_ballot_measures The states are: California (pro-choice initiative, not a constitutional amendment) Vermont (constitutional amendment affirming right to "personal reproductive autonomy") Kentucky ("no right to abortion in our constitution" amendment, very similar to Kansas) Montana (a "born-alive" law that I don't understand the impact of) and Michigan (consitutional amendment affirming right to "reproductive freedom")

Michael Bishop is at least two tiers higher on the all-time cfl qb ladder. You think the 2009 Bombers would've won any games with Davis starting?

wonder if Carter is going to get cut at halftime..

the thing that caught my ear about Lapo was when TSN quoted him as saying he's not being able to get deep in his playbook during games because his O can't stay on the field. man, why do you burn practice time on a deep playbook if you can't even get out of the shallow end? all that said I hope that Lapo turns up back on TSN. I learned stuff about football from his segments, I think he's a great explainer, real crisp and concise.

crap, you hate to see it. hope he's okay.

Tuning into Cats @ Argos. Steamy day down in the big smoke. Duane Forde scores a surprise zinger with "this is the turducken of sacks." Hamilton has a two-QB-on-the-field set as well. wide side hitch screen to Schiltz, who runs for a first down.

yeah, I noticed that, saw two guys in the huddle checking wristbands at the same time and was like 'wha?'
