Yup...attendance was fine. Things are always down a bit until Labor Day, and that happens league wide.

Also....some were saying that the Stamps weren't running the ball enough. I disagree. Yes Cornish wanst used as much in the 1st half, which is true, but in the end it was a very nice balance of 23 rushes and 21 pass attempts. When you have guys like Rogers, McDaniel and Fuller on the squad, you have to get the ball in their hands as well as Corndogs. Also, Cornish make a very good decoy which should open up other options.

All questions on offense pretty much start and stop with the O-Line. I thought they did a great job last night considering the circumstances and 3 of them had never played a CFL down before. They will be OK but they have to get some reps in together. Losing Lavoie really sucks and throws the ratio into turmoil. Huf and company have to get another non-import guy or 2 in town pronto.
