What?? No watermelon on their head? Shocking! LOL

Riders are worst by far. How can you even compare? Bombers is plain with crappy camo. The Riders are obnoxious and vomit inducing.

Eh, my criteria is simple. Riders have front numbers so they can't possibly be the worst. The Bombers look more like the Argos than the Blue Bombers, their colours are all wrong.
And I think the Riders jerseys looked better live than in the pictures. These ones look worse. Either way, there are some bad jerseys out there.

Now we know why Montreal is so bad this season. Higgins makes a lot of boneheaded decisions. His gambles and stuff worked with a good team like Stampeders back then but will not work with a terrible team like the Als. Another problem is the quarterbacking. Troy Smith got the arm but can't hit the target. Alex Brink just couldn't hack in the CFL. He was bad while playing for the Bombers and terrible for the Als. Tanner Marsh showed some flashes last season but still make some mistakes whenever he plays. It is lokking like Jonathan Crompton is going to be the man for them the way he is playing tonight. He makes mistake but he seems to learn from it right away. We'll see I guess..

Oh yeah...Bombers and helmet looks like crap. Those freaking camouflage or those patch ruined it. I don't mind the big W at the front and like the blue... but those god-awful patch is just unbearable to look at.

No gold = no good

Strange that the refs gave O'Shea that call.

This feels like the least offensive CFL season in my living history. Does anyone know how this season stacks against previous seasons for points scored per game?

Higgins is by far the worst coach in the CFL. No challenge on the previous play but now he is challenging on the play that might be tough to overturn.

Inept coaching or not, all the correct calls were made on those series of plays.

Well, Kory Sheets won't be coming back this year:

“@Sheets24K: A dream deferred....out for the year”

Hurt his Achilles apparently.

Really unfortunate for Sheets. Sounds like he was having a great camp and was in a decent position to make the Raiders

Why won't TSN mention the elephant in the room when talking about Edmonton's 6-1 record, and "top" defence?

They have played 5 terrible football teams, and were lucky not to lose to HAM and OTT.

Uh oh:

“@SunModdejonge: Nichols in at QB, with Reilly flexing his hand on the sideline. #esks #cfl”

“@SunModdejonge: Reilly has his hand taped up, with emphasis on the thumb. #esks #cfl”

“@SunModdejonge: #reilly headed for x-rays on his throwing hand. #cfl #esks”
