No End Call - CFL confirms it was an incorrect call

So who was it on?  Did we not have enough OL or receiver not lined up?  I'm seeing speculation on twitter that it was Bastien or Adams... but that Adams may have asked the ref if he was on the line...

 

If the ref called a penalty after that, then he should be fired. 

 

Anybody, watched the replay yet?

According to O'Shea Adams pointed to the official and the official pointed back confirming he was on the line.  It was not confirmed that it was the same official that threw the flag.

Yup, O'Shea just said Adams and the official pointed at each other to signal that he was lined up correctly. Don't know who threw the flag. Really does sound pretty fishy by the refs. Osh was adamant that Adams was lined up correctly both when he saw it in game and when he watched a replay, AND pointed out the flag was really late.

Wade Miller has to go after the league on this...  IF Adams did have communication

Have to check the game video to see if they can see if the official signalled okay. 

 

Replays on Twitter have the official clearly signalling okay to Adams, however he does look to line up a bit behind. Still the ref said it was fine.

Wow... just watched the video on twitter...

 

Adams check with ref, ref points, Adams lines up and then steps back off the line...  maybe half a yard off.

 

Yup, its technically a penalty but man, what a dirty call on the part of the ref... 

 

Unfortunately, if Adams head is not in the game... at this critical juncture, that's a reflection on OShea's coaching.

Just watched the TSN footage again. You can clearly see Adams point at the ref as he is walking down the line of scrimmage towards the sideline. The ref pointed back confirming he was on the line. After this though Adams did appear to change his lead foot and in doing so did end up taking a half step back from the line. As soon as the QB sneak was whistled dead the sideline ref ran right to the pile where he was called over by the head referee. After a brief conversation the sideline ref begins to throw his flag just as the TSN camera angle changes.

 

So it was indeed the sideline ref on Adams' side that threw the flag but it seems like it was the head ref that told him to do it and that was why it was so late.

Heard Irving on the radio saying he got a text from the league saying Bastien was at fault. Strange because the referee that pulled out his hankey was on the other side of the field. Seems strange but we should have a better idea in the coming hours or day.

Was actually from a fan at the game

How in mother nature's rib cage is it a reflection on O'Shea if a player has a brain fart?
Let me spell it out for all the MOS lovers it's called accountability there is none, that's why these brain farts happen how many ways can you lose a game before you realize hey maybe there just not prepared?Think Huffer would put up with that kind of mistake?Not a chance in hell.Oh well at least it was close.
