The only way this game is going to be replayed on video is as a bad example of CFL football.

Lotsa heads down on the TiCat bench.

They have so few reasons to celebrate, so let them enjoy it while it lasts.

Reminds me of how the Bombers played under Burke.

I feel embarrassed for the TiCat fans.They are actually paying to watch their team comes unhinged.

Masoli's running is pretty much like a squirrel crossing a street.

Bladek didn't look bad the last time he came in, so I'm not sure how much the Riders lose.

Ok, Masoli has a reprieve.

Gawd, but Masoli is beyond terrible. We're gonna see Collaros real soon.

OMG! Ticats have a first down!

Pretty sloppily played game so far. Bridge has horrible throwing mechanics and Masoli has no time at all. Gonna have to fight to stay awake, but sometimes these games are fun to watch even though the coaches are having strokes on the sidelines watching.

Or pose a moose directly in front of the cannon.

There's other issues with Rainey. According to a friend who is a Lions fanatic and attends a lot of the practices, Rainey is a me-first sort of player and not well-liked by his team mates. But he did sneak into the league and turfing him as an afterthought would be difficult.

The coaches finally twigged onto what the majority of this forum has been saying for weeks. Maybe by this time next year, Hurl will be identified as a weak link in the defense.

I'm expecting a close scrambly game and Hamilton to eke out a win. Glenn will be a non-factor.

That was a hoot!

No. When healthy, both Wild and Leggett are better and he has the wrong passport to replace Hurl.

Lordy, lordy. The Montreal situation is giving me flashbacks about the Glieberguy's era in Ottawa.

How did you come to know this?

The problem is see is how much CFL oversight would slow the game down- we've had enough of that already. Nail ém in the pocketbook afterwards and penalize their team by it having to put in a different player next game.

At game speed it is often difficult to make the right call. However, in the event of the hit like the one on Reilly last game, there ought to be a recourse. Maybe each game should be reviewed by player safety and any intents to injure should result in at least a one game suspension. Similarly hits to the knees and such where a player cannot defend himself ought to warrant a similar penalty.

The reduction in full-contact practices may be a sop to the players' association. Apparently when a player is injured, he receives benefits for 12 months, and then he is on his own. Several teams have been trying to get WCB in their provinces to cover CFL players but so far nothing has been put in place. The players association is really pushing for extended, open-ended benefits for players but the owners are near-panicked over this issue.

Does anyone on the Ticat roster look really good this year? Maybe Tyms' bullpoop quota for the year was exceeded.

How can coaches assess the abilities of new linemen without full-contact drills?
