That game yesterday, while good for the Stamps, was a terrible one for the league. No drama.
The product feels very stale right now.

Agree. Without Messem's late game screen reception contributing YAC yards, BLM was en route to less than 200 yards passing. A lot of the Stamps wins this year were in games not unlike yesterday. The fact that BLM is the West's nominee for MOP, and that Burris at age 40 was able to look so relatively good this year is indicative of the poor Quarterbacking and tight defensive play that has stifled a lot of the usual excitement in the CFL product. The league was at it's best when most games among top teams featured a high scoring air show where taking a 4-point lead with 2 minutes left usually meant you scored too early and were likely to lose the game.
