What short memories we all have here.# It wasn't too long ago when the Stamps would consistently run up the score against the Riders. .

Did Calgary ever go for a short kickoff late in a game with a three-touchdown lead? Did they gamble on third down with a three-touchdown lead? I suggest the Stamps "ran up the score" as you so eloquently put it simply because the 'Riders were perenial losers, and still are.

They sure did. A game I remember vividly is about 6 years ago at TF when the Stamps were up 38-16 and decided they needed to score 2 TDs in the final 3 minutes of the game to make it 52-16 at the end. But you know what - football is 60 minute game and the Riders closed shop early that night and deserved to get their a$$e$ kicked. Calgary gave up in the 4th quarter last night and got what was coming to them. [/b][/quote]
They didn't go for a short kickoff or gamble on third down, did they? Please answer the pertinent questions.
