2013 CFL regular season thread

[dash]

All that's missing now is the Calgary media claiming how they are the "odds on favourites" to win the Grey Cup...with the zebras at their back, it would be hard to argue.

What the hell are you talking about? The Riders imploded tonight and the Stamps were the better team (just like the Riders were in the first meeting between the two teams).

/Also, you're starting to sound like a broken record with all this ref crap, give it a rest.

 

[dash]

Yeah, those Riders fans, they're a classy bunch:

@a_greenwood3 Every single Calgary player, fan, anyone, can go f*** off. Arrogant pricks.

I guess the refs must be getting in the way of Riders defenders trying to tackle Cornish

Calgary Stampeders running back Jon Cornish was named the Offensive and Canadian Player of the Week for Week 7. Cornish ran for 175 yards on 16 carries and scored a career-high four touchdowns to help the Stampeders knock off the Roughriders, 42-27 at McMahon Stadium on Friday night.

The New Westminster, BC native was able to win the battle between the top rushers in the league against Saskatchewan’s Kory Sheets. Through six games this season, Cornish has racked up 676 yards along the ground and leads the league with seven rushing touchdowns.

The single season rushing leader at Kansas University, scored touchdowns from 32, 14, 2, and 1 yard away. His longest rush of the game was 53 yards.

Blue Bombers QB carousel continues:

CFL reality

John Cornish couldnt do his radio interview with team1040 radio because his lunch break at the bank he works at was pushed back

I think he's still taking some university courses as well - He's a busy guy.

/Only guys who make big money in the CFL are starting QB's and the odd wide receiver.

Making room for somebody?

CCtsn: #BCLions release Hugh O'Neil. Don't be surprised if he's quickly picked up by Duck Dynasty.

contract issue ... probably would have lost him to the expansion draft anyways

Struggling Hugh O'Neill cut by Lions

and Wally ... as for the bold below ... ummm ... NO ... YOU DIDNT!!!

"I'm a little bit disappointed. We tried to bring this fellow along. We weren't going to make him do all three (kicking disciplines). We groomed him. But if you're not willing to extend, it's not like the performance has been so overwhelming," Buono said.

The Bombers are just a clusterphuck right now - Pick a QB and stop the carousel.

ROUGE ALERT!!!

2 minutes left Riders - Als 14-14.... nevermind.
Durant coughed it up for a drop-6.

anywho, congrats to geroy Simon for 1,000 career CFL catches.
jut shy of 16,000 career yards.

oh, and Calvillo got hurt early.





edit: ROUGE ALERT back in play. 21-21, a minute to go

 

[puckhead]

huh. Saskatchewan iced their own kicker for the game winning field goal.
and of course in doing so, ensures the kick would be good.

exciting finish, even though it wasn't ROUGE decided.

 

[puckhead]

Sure like those new BC Lions jerseys
Sure like their first drive. 5 plays, 78 yards, 7 points.

Sure wish i had more than one TV in this room.
- Lions vs Stamps
- Whitecaps vs Denver
- MMA, a chance to see Sonnen punched in the face repeatedly. maybe that's the one to tape, so I can watch it over again

Oscar de la Hoya is drunk.
Q: you must be very excited - your new show is starting on August 19
A: I am very excited - my new show is starting on August 19
*awkward silence*

 

[puckhead]

Lulay throws it away (again), Stamps take advantage.
Tim Brown takes momentum back on the ensuing return.

96 yards.
Surprising that was Brown's first career kickoff return TD


on the MMA side of things, whenever I see a white guy with cornrows... I'm cheering for the other guy

Pretty good 1st quarter, but the wrong team is winning

 

[dash]

A safety followed by a penalty aided TD drive and the Stamps take the lead.

As bad as his ankle injury looked, @nikel18 just jumped off the golf cart & hopped into #Stamps locker room to talk to his team. #Cfl


I don't know if "hopped" is literal or figurative



edit: oh
@FarhanLaljiTSN 17m
#Stamps are assuming Nik has a broken ankle. Problems with xray at BC Place. They will put him in a boot & get him xrays tomorrow in Calgary

No way Harris was down by contact, that's a fumble...
