Eastern Semi-Final - Als @ Ticats

It's a very blustery day in Guelph. Replay on the FG try into the wind by Whyte was something. Pretty bonehead play by Cox after that.

My thoughts so far: neither team will beat RR and the Boatmen next week.

Bo bowling us useless as a *** , kent Austin is not a good coach.... Burris is not playing great.

Toronto wins next week

No bowling fumbles and then he drops a easy catch for a first down against the wind. He definitely may have cost them the game.

Burris is not playing great.

 

In the playoffs in poor weather? The hell you say. Guy is such a summer time qb. 

As much as we like Henoc Muamba's play this year, Shea Emery is defintiely a notch above. This is like watching midgets fighting with Nerf bats.

Austin keeps on going to trick plays with the wind rather then having your qb throw the ball. Mind boggling until the next play when Burris tosses a int.

Looks like Burris will be a free agent next season. Hopefully Ottawa signs him

On a semi-related note, Paul Wiecek of the Freep says he's  betting that the Bombers will start next year with Glenn and Collaros behind center.

That single by Dales looms large...Hammy has to score a major here...

This drive looks promising. Otherwise, its an NFL game.

Really impressed with Sutton.

Why bother covering the receiver when you can just run them over before the ball arrives?

 

The CFL has turned into a joke.

Shea emry just nearly lost the game for them. Horrible blown tackle on that TD run.Would not agree with you on this one.

Really impressed with Sutton.

 

x2.  He runs with a low centre of gravity that makes him bloody hard to bring down. 

 

Pathetic that Hammy gets a TD on that lame duck throw to Gable...full credit to him though

 

Good strategy by the Als at the end. One shot at the endzone to try for the win, then kick the FG to tie it up.

Why would we trade for Glenn if we can land Collaros? Does Wiecek know Glenn is not an FA?

Too bad the zebras had to decide this one.  Lets see how bad it gets in Regina now.....

more likely Whyte's errant aim decided it than 1 call...

 

whatever. i just hope the Argos smash the Cats for making me watch such a craptacular ESF (and because F the lolCats... but that should go without saying...)

 

here's hoping a week Monday the front page of the sports section bears the headline "Argos lick the *******".

 

 

 

EDIT: that shouldn't be censored! i meant the word as a synonym for "cats"...

Yes but great call, risky and still would have been decision time for the Als.

 

Too bad the refs decided it for them.  Have to make the call, that could be used for training purposes to explain 'pass interference' to young refs.  Bush league, and will always be one until they correct this.

Als were probably better off with nothing being called. First down on the one is certainly not a lock.

And it's pretty easy to criticize a call when watching it in slow motion. In real time it looked pretty close.

Ray vs. Burris in the playoffs should be a no brainer. One guy can actually perform in the playoffs the other can't. Damned lucky the red "didn't want to decide the game" and kept the flag in his pocket for the ticats. Of course I don't think the Argos are above choking either so who knows...

Looked worse in real time to me.  You are right, they took away an exciting finish.  The refs are so inconsistent they are hurting the game and the brand.

 

This coming from a person who could not care less who wins the game, imagine if that non-call happens to the Bombers in the same situation.

 

The biggest problem in the CFL right now is the refs imo, on so many levels.  They gotta get it right...

People shocked at a missed call in a CFL game. Funny.

So does Lefevour get the start based on how bad Burris was?

I hope Toronto wins...

Not likely especially with the game being indoors.

No one is shocked, just disappointed. You can clearly see that the ref saw it, but he didn't want to throw a flag on a game changing play which is a shame. If it's a penalty call it regardless of when it happens. 

said it once, will say it until fixed.... the officiating in the cfl is one very strong reason our league comes across as bush... spend the money and FIX IT! hell, go all instant replay if we have to or have real time communications with command centre and make the right calls..
