Teams would not hold a scrimmage with such lopsided teams.
On one hand, I don't blame the Jets for wanting to get more vets in the game after a few preseason games, but on the other, you think they could have played more vets last night against Edmonton and keep the black aces for tonight. I guess they wanted to keep the vets for the home game.
