Can someone explain why we have to have weekday games in the CFL at all? IIRC, this is a summer phenomenon, with things settling down to weekend games in the fall. Is it that summer crowds would be small on weekends? What I really dislike about this schedule is the varying time between games, with sometimes only four days.

Personally I feel that Khalif was the key ingredient that knit our front four together with inspired push up the middle.

What he lacked was a seasoned leader on defense, someone he looked up, some to to reign in his unbridled aggression.

I fear what he could become to an already solid defense, of the GC champion Argos.

Let's hope for fears are unfounded! :cr:

I don't care about soccer. Is soccer people more important now? Soccer sucks. 1-0, 1-1, 1--2...or the blowouts. Lions get first pick. Is Rogers sneaking into BC place? Thursday night sucks.
Recap
Thurs. games suck
Soccer sucks
Beiber sucks
and so does stinky feet.
Alot of work had to be done to face the Argos. I'm not too impressed with our coaching staff.Here's hoping. :cr:

Liked opening with a six man line.

Rod black, not so much.

Flanker screens really need three receivers to the wide side of the field, rather than two receivers to the short side.

Tough to argue with six seconds of protection from your offensive line.

Worth noting on the replay. At three seconds, all receivers are covered. Took a scramble drill to get that major.
