I think it happens every year that one team plays twice in a week (since Ottawa was added). I believe Argos have that sched if not last year the previous year. EDIT: 2016 Week 11 - Argos played twice. vs BC & vs HAM 2015 Week 16 - Argos vs OTT & vs MTL I think that will continue to happen until a 10th team emerge. Edited July 16, 2017 by M.O.A.B.

I see ottawa gets the bye after this 2 game week (which would be a godsend) Toronto didn't get that luxury last year. I hope they fix this before a time comes that the bombers get such a **** schedule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted July 16, 2017 Report Share Posted July 16, 2017 Happened to the Argos a fair bit because of SkyDoom scheduling, and I coulda sworn it happened to us once recently. At any rate, it is the weakest of sauces... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they fix this before a time comes that the bombers get such a **** schedule If there are 4 games every week, that means only 80 games get played. With 9 teams playing 18 games each, there are 81 total games played. (9 x 18 = 162.... 2 teams per game so 162 / 2 = 81). So you need to fit that 81st game in there somewhere. The options are a 5-game week where someone plays twice or you extend the season by one week. And it looks weird because the gap is Wednesday to Monday for Ottawa, but that's still 4 days in between. It's no different than when someone ends a week on a Sunday and opens the next week on Friday, which isn't that uncommon.

TSN is already giving Ottawa the out and Ottawa is already whining about it. But it happens to everyone, the Bombers just had a short week, and the Eastern teams have minimal travel. Ottawa isn't leaving their time zone and they have an hour of travel to Toronto. IMO the team with the "two in one week" schedule should always be an eastern team unless it is a Western team given three consecutive home games. rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Posted July 16, 2017 Report Share Posted July 16, 2017 To back to back stretches of 4 day rest is going to be tough but the away game is just down the road... Ottawa really could be behind the 8 ball after these two, they need to beat Montreal... huge mistake letting Ernest Jackson walk - for both the player and the team.

Ripper Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 Watching the rest of the teams play makes me feel better about where we are at. No one looks good. Been a funny season so far. Not one team has been really strong so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 I'd be pretty interested in seeing what Ryan Phillips could do in this defence... yeah he's gettin old but its not like he was getting lit up in Montreal Taynted_Fayth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno about that, he's a vet DB who's been playing so the learning curve of Hall's D wouldn't take too long to adjust to and he would be in game shape. If Jovan Johnson could come in and be an immediate impact player for the riders on short notice, I don't see why Phillips couldn't as well. But in all likelihood we run with the same roster as last game with the exception of Thorpe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barrin Simpson, Jovon Johnson.. but its also failed miserably as often if not more so.. Jovon Johnson (lol) , Keith Shologan, Jeff Keeping just to name a few off the top of my head.
