Calgary at BC - Preseason

Well, that’s annoying.

Red and Orange and Black colours all over the place.

i think he just tackled his own guy.

Weird mix of colours in the unis. Hard to tell them apart.

Could be a high scoring game if they left Reilly and Mitchell in the game..but they won’t of course.

The most entertaining aspect of the game so far is watching Dickenson going wah wah on the sidelines..

I'm tuning in once the Raps game is done. 

I’d rather watch a BC-Calgary preseason game than the NBA finals or the Stanley Cup finals regardless of the teams involved.

Why would Stamps use their home unis?

BC needs a backup QB. I wonder if they will go after Brandon Bridge.

OMG, BLM threw a INT? I assume Calgary is cutting him, per MBB?

 

And the Raps are up by by 14!!

Eye in the sky appears to be working the way it should be, overturning calls on the go.

Will watch once the basketball game is done

You know, I wouldn’t mind them playing that song “Eye in the Sky” by the Alan Parsons Project, to let us know the review is on..🏈😉

Alright tuning in to the BC Lions radio... they mentioned something I thought was interesting, that BC allegedly plans on only dressing 2 QBs (Reilly + backup). Thoughts on this? Is this a normal occurrence, or no? I know I've never heard of it, obviously they're all-in on Reilly, but it isn't that unheard of to have 2 QB injuries in the same game.

Thoughts?

I can't wait to play BC next week. Good timing for us. I think we win and don't let go of first in the West all season.

Crazytown. Mostly because they don't plan to start much of an oline. Feels like a Wally move.

I believe some NFL teams have done this in recent seasons, the Pats come to mind but can't confirm or verify with evidence just off the top of my head.

Doesn’t really help in CFL, can’t roster another player 

They had mentioned casually that it was related to cap/$$$ issues, which is insane - it sounds like heating your house by setting your furnace on fire to me...

Gives you an extra DI doesn't it? Bennett plays ST. Can he not come in on offensive or defensive plays?

When you spend $700,000  on your qb & $250,000 a year on your guard...,

Can’t have two QBs on the field at one time.

This piqued my curiosity - couldn't they just list the backup at a different position, then have him on the field... for example list him as a RB, then just have him take direct snaps, similar to just calling a trick play (for example a fake punt)

I assume there's a rule that you have to have 1 QB or something on offense,

QB’s are a separate roster designation.  If you list a QB as a RB that just means you have to bench you’re other RB, you don’t gain a roster spot.

Another fun preseason game to watch. Looks like BC has a nice young prospect at QB with Kraemer.

I think we went through 2 or 3 in s regular season game with Buck starting.
