Eternal optimist Posted June 9, 2023 Report Share Posted June 9, 2023 7 hours ago, Brandon said: Is the game worth watching, or can someone give a very basic TLDR of what happened? Apparently no stats so I can't even read those Trouble in Parades early on (he missed a pair of FGs) leads to the CGY comeback falling short. Maiar reminds me of when Drew Willy would throw for a bunch in garbage time once things were out of reach VA has a typical VA game with a pick but 2 TDs to Rhymes One LOL play where maeier throws an INT then CGY recovers the fumble bc the BC player lateraled it and CGY was last to touch ball GCJenks and Brandon 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuranBoldenRules Posted June 9, 2023 Report Share Posted June 9, 2023 (edited) I can’t even come up with a comparable to Maier. He looks like he spent the off-season on the couch eating Flamin Hot Cheetos. Then Calgary sends out their running QB who promptly runs straight out of bounds for a 2 yard loss.

GCJenks Posted June 9, 2023 Report Share Posted June 9, 2023 I thought the best part of the game was watching whiny DICKenson losing his ****. He really needs to have his punchable face raised up the ranking a little. Mark F and Bigblue204 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it was just a typical first game of year funk where everyone wasnt on same page, but they runningthesame system with for most part same offensive weapons, and he looked totally clueless....and his accuracy was Fajardoesque 47 minutes ago, JuranBoldenRules said: I can’t even come up with a comparable to Maier.

I’m not counting them out. BC looked pretty sharp and may be a team to beat this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCon Posted June 9, 2023 Report Share Posted June 9, 2023 I expect BC to start fast but fade as the season goes on. I expect Calgary to be middling all year with Oscar-Maier-Weiner-Arm. I expect the Elks to improve as the season goes on. I expect the Riders to be a dumpster fire stuffed in a locker all year. Bigblue204 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

17to85 Posted June 9, 2023 Report Share Posted June 9, 2023 Just blown away by how bad maier was. This is the guy you hitched your wagon to? Inaccurate, immobile, weak arm.

Stickem Posted June 9, 2023 Report Share Posted June 9, 2023 Allowing VAJ to play pitch and catch all night did the stumps in.....If Cal. sticks with the type of pass rush they displayed in that game, they'll be a bottom feeder....It would be a slaughter of great proportions if they employ that same rush against us....Zack could set records ....Their anemic 'get to the qb.' was matched only by their opening game attendance BigBlueFanatic, Noeller and Bigblue204 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue204 Posted June 9, 2023 Report Share Posted June 9, 2023 Is the CGY owner attempting to punish the CFL for not aligning with the American leagues? Wasn't he one of the owners that wanted to do it? It's just so bizarre that you would let your property continue to deteriorate year after year and seemingly do nothing about it.

Bigblue204 Posted June 9, 2023 Report Share Posted June 9, 2023 The stadium is one thing....but to have an announced attendance of 17000, and we all know that is not a true number, on opening day is a total embarrassment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
