Tuning into the Als game right now

 

Here's hoping it isn't old Rod B again

Good god can these flags just stop already?

Good to see the Trivago guy back.

Adrian McPherson sucking as usual.

That wet ball makes me unsurprised that those balls are flying way off.

So are you saying that wet balls excite you?

Sure lol.

 

All joking aside though, I'm a bit surprised by Higgins's already talking about starting LeFevour.  I know Crompton's been off this preseason and I'm not advocating player loyalty, but to me it just makes sense to use the guy who took the team on his back last year and turned their fortunes from 1-8 to 9-9.  I just don't see anything LeFevour brings to the table that's gonna help the Als get consistent wins at this point.  I just don't see any wisdom in this and more likely than not, Higgins would probably just wind up changing his mind again a couple weeks in.

LeFevour has had more playing time then Crompton and if the coach thinks that he is the better guy then why not make the move right away rather then waiting until it's to late. 

 

Crompton IMO did a good job last season considering he came in cold and just won... but lots of those wins were Bishop in Toronto going 12-2 type of wins...

Tom Higgins said that Jonathan Crompton will start the season at QB. #Alouettes #CFL

I don't like it when a player gets injured due to a hard (legal)  hit and the defensive player is boasting like an idiot.  

 

 

Kuale???

Yup, and only makes sense too.  No he isn't Calvillo, but I think he's the best option they got and unless he craps the bed super bad, he's the horse that's been ridden post-AC that's delivered the best.

As bad as Montreals Offence looked last night. It was missing a few key pieces.

From my observation LeFevour seems to be either hot or cold so far, much better as a fill in or change of pace QB than an actual starter.

Not surprising... making the switch from DE to WR can be tough and I just can't imagine he's got the necessary speed at 6'5, 265lbs!
