Blueandgold Posted September 4, 2017 Report Share Posted September 4, 2017 I can't stand penalties on plays like that punt return. There was absolutely no reason to throw a flag on that play, the alleged ''hold'' in no way affected the play and the hold itself was borderline. I can't stand when exciting plays are taken away by tick tack penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelownabomberfan Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 Duane Forde made a comment about climate change causing these weather delays. I laughed at that. In the good old days they just played through these lightning storms. Only when lightning would hit an upright would there be any concern for fan/player safety, and I say this from experience having watched lightning hit an upright in 1986 at a Bomber/Ottawa game.

I wish the uninformed masses would stop treating every weather event like it's climate change in action. The reality is unless you're compiling mountains of data you are not likely to actually see climate change. It's much more subtle than that and requires long terms to see the effects of.

That's because Duane back in the day they just played instead of worrying about lightning. Not saying that it was better, just how things were back then.
