The wheels of justice turn very slowly in Saskatchewan, this nightclub incident happened almost two years ago.

Harris seems to have wrapped up player of the week in 16 minutes of work

Stamps and Lions both did a great job of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory tonight.

No kidding, our defence is terrible but it's great seeing the offense clicking. Long season yet. Calgary and BC could be west final bound

Stamps also lost Jon Cornish with a broken thumb last night, U of C product Matt Walter will have to carry the load.

How long recovery is that?

How long recovery is that?

All I have heard thus far is "a while", I'm thinking likely 6-8 weeks.

Amazing how many injuries there have been in the CFL this year, a lot of big names too.

Can't believe no flag was thrown on that low hit that forced Drew Willy from the game. CFL officiating at its finest once again.

it's never a bad plan to take the crossover playoff spot and slam through the east, like a windshield through a bug


also, shouldn't that "BREAKING" be "BROKEN"?

Well gosh darn it, the Riders are now 0-5.

Of course, the Lions started the 2011 season 0-5 and went on to win the Grey Cup that season.

/I don't see that happening again.

The Calgary Stampeders have placed national running back Jon Cornish and international defensive lineman DeQuin Evans on the six-game injury list.

Cornish suffered a broken thumb in Calgary's overtime loss to the Ottawa Redblacks Friday night in the nation's capital. Cornish played the first half, but didn't come back out for the second after the injury.

Evans injured his right hamstring on the opening kickoff of the same game.

Cornish has been the CFL's Most Outstanding Canadian the past three seasons. He entered Friday's contest as the league's second leading rusher with 285 yards. He added 20 yards on seven carries to go along with a touchdown against the Redblacks.

With Tuesday's moves, the Stampeders activated international running back Tory Harrison and international defensive back Ciante Evans from the practice roster.

Going to see more Rob Cote and Matt Walker in the Stamps offense (and Anthony Parker at the expense of an import receiver like Jeff Fuller or Eric Rogers). Not only is Cornish a great running back, but he's a ratio buster.

Interesting that the Whitecaps drew more fans this past weekend than the Lioms - Suitor was on with Sekeres and Price and things got a little heated (interview starts about 11:40 or so in)
