I wonder if it's ever happened before that MBB was unanimously wrong like we were on Calgary vs. Montreal last week?

great game but it seems to me like BC went to a prevent D way too early. Ticats down by 3, 2:00 on the clock, need about 50-55 yards to set up Legz ... BC repeatedly gives them easy first downs on checkdowns and flat passes. Suddenly the Cats aren't playing to tie, they're playing to win. That was Lapo's dream drive.

that last straight fire catch was pretty sweet

yeah, they were really pumping Tommy's tires during yesterday's game.

Dustin and Suitor seem to be trying to make Tommy Stevens a thing, make him short-yardage famous, so it's extra nice to see him get stuffed. Fajardo makes improbable escape from sack, runs backwards, gets sacked.

I think you can put this loss on Adams. Dude should not have dropped the shoulder on two tacklers six yards short of a first down while his team had the lead. Not a play to sell out your body on. He gets hurt, his backup is unprepared and can't move the ball at all, and the Stamps lose a game they had well in hand.

If we weren't so shell-shocked by the consecutive Calgary beatdowns I'm sure some of us would've picked Montreal. so yeah, Osh's fault.

woof, Spieker has been horrible in the 4th quarter for two straight games now. opposite of clutch.

sucks that Alford is hurt. Another promising talent sidelined

Eternal optimist ... checks out.

Dustin & Suitor talking up Spieker's big game last week ... seem to have forgotten his nightmare fourth quarter.

Davis Alexander has been six-gamed. Hate to see the best young QB in the league sidelined like that. Big blow to the Als, esp with MBT regressing badly this year. I got a prop bet that someone will make an ancestors joke here. buy my lunch, MBB (speaking of betting, I called it all, although I was a few weeks late on Fajardo, and McCheese hasn't gotten manured yet.)

my favorite song in 1983. where am I to go now that I've gone too far?

I ******* love early Sabbath. Have been playing this 1970 version of War Pigs a lot lately. Bill Ward the drummer is beast mode here.

it seems like Strev is having trouble making plays while moving laterally ... he really slows down when he's rolling out with his eyes downfield, and is an easy kill for pursuit. I guess the point is that the play action freezes the pursuit and gives him the extra time he needs?

yeah I picked the Stamps too and I'm getting absolutely trucked by bad karma here. =:-O

From the Crankshaft wiki: yup, checks out. (like KBF, no offense intended here)

I always swore to never get between you two in any situation but here we are.

You're already posting daily in every topic. Go for hourly, or every fifteen minutes. That's how I'll know you'll mean it.

same here. he sure looked like he was turning a corner and was playing some solid game manager type ball but then when the heat was on, he buckled. His overthrow of Gittens right at the end of the second quarter was a big deal That would've been a killshot.

I get bitching about the Bombers in bomber threads -- can't police that or draw bright lines there -- but the second comment in the Als / Argos game thread was just Booch going off on MOS out of nowhere. Dude, we get it, you don't like how the team is managed. You post here multiple times daily saying the same goddamn thing over and over again. I think you can consider your point made. I don't think anyone at MBB fails to understand your feelings about Jake Thomas.

Great game. Classic CFL drama. That's a game you could put on ESPN Classics in a decade. I love this league. Arbuckle looked Grey Cup worthy for three quarters. Spieker needs to buy the entire Als D cheeseburgers and I hope Davis Alexander sits down until that hammie is sound. When I saw him tuck it and explode towards the endzone I knew he was gonna come up lame. Dude has a real powerful burst tho, I didn't know he was that fast. board needs a "Go CFL" reaction for games like this.

Following the herd with Lawler. 🐑
