Tonight, BC @ Calgary (Calgary -1.5)

Rourke starting per depth chart, for what that's worth.  Mike Reilly was limited in practice all week and is questionable to play, but is listed as the backup. For what that's worth. 

Takeru Yamasaki remains at PK after missing two short field goals and a convert in the game the Lions lost by 4; the Lions do have import kicker Stefan Flintoff on their practice roster.

For the Stamps, Ka'deem Carey returns at starting tailback after a horrendous fourth quarter that sparked the Argo comeback last week.

Whoever books this stuff has Calgary favored by a measly 1.5 points, which seems kinda low to me, but I am not much of a gambler.

cfl.ca was 6-0 Stamps
MBB was 37-3 Stamps

Just like those tall brains above, I picked Calgary in the pickems, which means that Rourke will absolutely go off on them and the Lions will cruise 45-18.  I have a perfect record to preserve!

Why the hell did they kick that?

Hamilton adjusted their OL after week 1 and it's even worse.

Riders Oline is playing better then everyone thought

Zero pocket awareness from Masoli 

I dunno, on a play like that you've gotta get the steamboats from your OL. 

Van Zeyl rhyming with turnstile today.

On this day in history (August 14th)

Saskatchewan opened the 1959 season with a 28-8 loss to Calgary. They would go on to have the worst Sask season in history (1-15)

I don't know why a SSK business would run this information as an ad. I guess they are proud of their history?...

Eh not really. Fajardo is beating the rush. He's seen plenty of pressure from a depleted front 4 with out much for blitzes. If any thing Maas game plan and play call is shinning.

Ah Claire Hanna how I missed you...

Bomber fan rockin' the 33 in the crowd😛

Jesus Hamilton just punt on 1st down at this point

Hamilton gets a big break with the fumble recovery and Masoli gets sacked twice. Time to bring in Evans. Masoli just doesn't have it.

nice tackle on teams by Hamilton 84

Yeah I wouldn't have gone to Masoli in the first place. He looks the same as always rn. 

Masoli is a duck n chuck dude who throws bad pics and makes dumb plays but throws for 4000 yards with 20 interceptions in 10 games

That oline for Hamilton is a dumpster fire.

I think Doug Flutie himself would be road pizza behind that OL.

WTF is Masoli doing and why isnt Evans in at this point. On the last sack Sask had like 2314 guys on the line of scrimmage in a clear firesale blitz and Masoli shoves the ball into Erlingtons gut and pulls it away only to get sacked. If Erlington is handed that ball he's still running. How is Masoli not seeing this stuff out there? He looks like a rookie. Get Evans in there already.

Planned rollouts and quick throws from the QB help.

Him and Harris are a pickem

This 14-0 team might end up 0-14………

Hamilton OL garbage. Ticats look overrated like they believed the hype but the bombers broke them and now sask is also. Fragile mentally weak overrated kitties 

What a move by Fajardo lol 

Per CKRM radio: "The Rider D are playing against these wide, sort of....running patterns very well."

Routes. Their receivers are running routes.

It will be cool to beat sask back to back to end their undefeated streak but continue ours

I believe them and the national media thought that just changing to Masoli was gonna be enough for them to improve this year and go from 15 win team to unbeatable. Fact is you have to get better every year or you take a big step back. The east was brutal last year and they were never 15 win good. They weren't 12 win good.

I was thinking have we ever had a ldc where both teams were un beaten thatd be wild.
