    ...then move it again for short FG.....10-0, in 5 minutes
    Nichols holding ball, missing throws, happy feet......
    McDaniels automatic 2nd down converter for BLM....
    Nichols 2-7 for 16 yds in opening quarter.....
    Bombers still letting Stamps pitch and catch.....
    ...60 yd TD drive and easy 2 pt convert follow....18-0
    Smith not in sync with a Bomber QB, yet again....
    Bomber O now giving up sacks and a pick.....
    Middle of field is free Stamp passing lane...
    ...as Loffler is getting educated, today....
    Messam busts past 4 tacklers into the endzone....
    ...now 24-0....
    Flanders needs more touches.....
    Nichols has eyes for only Denmark and Dressler....
    ....while Bomber O is 2 and out, over and out.....
    ...as Bombers are being schooled, fooled and tooled.......
    Bombers go on 3rd down.....little draw play to Flanders
    ...who makes great cut, bursts 50 yd... to get Blue on the board
    Inane play by J. Adams....not falling on fumble.....
    ..but just touching it to o set up Stamp FG...27-7
    Stamps start 2nd half in poor FP...but drive for another FG.
    Stamp receivers are big, strong and fast.....
    ...hard for Blue to match that.....
    Medlock has a lot of punts and Finch...lot of good returns.
    30-7.....run to the cupboard for more gin.....
    Blue finally get some field position.....
    ...Nichols TD pass to Dressler called back
    ..but Denmark follows with great catch in end zone...
    Bomber butter D now more the knife, as game goes on....
    ...better coverage, and hitting Stamp receivers hard....
    ...kick coverage finally picking up as well....
    Great 45 yd catch by Smith on jump ball.....
    Pass to Denmark, run by Flanders.....

    30-20.....hope is stirring.....
    Field position turning around now....

    Stamps move it 60 yds for FG.....33-27 Stamps
    Time for one of the ole classic CFL finishes.
    Denmark...another great catch to keep drive going...
    Nichols hits Smith, down to the 5 yd line.....
    Nichols hits a diving JFG for the tying touchdown!
    ...Medlock PAT has Bombers up 34-33..
    ...but with only 20 seconds to go....
    BLM moves the Stamps 40 yds against the ole prevent....
    Parades comes on for game winning 52 yarder.....
    ...and hits it...no time left...Stamps win 36-34.
    Gin all over my shirt again....in a bad way....
    Just can't win in this place.
    T. Flanders can really ball...when he gets the ball...
    Denmark had a productive game.....some great grabs..
    Character and jam....to come back from 30-7 deficit...
    ...but Stamps do what winning teams do in crunch time...
    ...and you just can't sport that kind of team...23 point lead...
    Huge moral victory....to come back from that.....
    Huge immoral loss..... to lose like that...
    Huge amount of gin in a losing cause.....

    It looked for a few games that the Esks D was jelling. Now their secondary is back to chasing opposition jerseys into the end zone. I think Benevides gets fired this off season.

    They don't care about a sales persons product knowledge... they care about will they push the warranty and or to sell based on what has better margins for that week until the next flyer comes out. 
    Staff do learn a tiny from the manufacturers sales reps who visit once in a while.  The problem is turnover is so frequent and anyone with product knowledge and who can sell usually leaves ASAP to make commission at one of the other places.

    Word of advice...
    I used to work at Best Buy... they live and die by selling the Best Buy service plans.   The commercials used to push how they were not on commission which is true... however if you didn't upsell on warranties you would get fired ASAP.   It's worse then places that are on commission.  
    Once you purchase your product and leave the store... that store wants nothing to do with you.  This is because returns kill their numbers and the managers are terrified about losing their job.  
    How it works is they will do anything and everything possible to avoid you using your extended warranty.   Best Buy in every city contracts out your repairs to the lowest bidder.   The people working on your tvs usually are terrible.
    Always extend your warranty directly with the manufacturer.  They have real technicians and wont give you the run around.

    I was going to buy a Sony on sale at Best Buy...  but naturally they used the old bait and switch tactic.   How convenient that for 2 weeks straight they didn't have the tv in stock while it was being pushed in the flyer and on it's main display in store....  so in my fit of anger I decided to go to Costco and get the 75" sharp...  can't go wrong with a 5 year extended warranty for only 99 dollars and the 90 day return policy. 
    I'm weary since HiSense bought them out earlier in the year... but the in store model looked amazing and the price was great.   I'll post my thoughts once it's delivered and after trying out the xbox one s and some 4k videos...
