This display by the officials (and yes the Stamps at times as well) was nothing short of abhorrent.

Literally...and its hard to say this about any sports.....it looked like the fix was in. It was that comical.

Again I am very leery about accusing profesional officials as to doing anything but their best, but this just was not the case in this game nor in one i watched earlier this season.

I think I may just call it a season now.
Hall of fame game is tomorrow, the official day that the CFL is dead to me.

The problem is that CFL officials do not recieve any kind of training or decent experience that allows them to be competant at this level with this speed.

The worst call I have seen in sports in my life was a argos game a few days ago, the ball went over a WR's head, at which point the ref blows the play dead, then a Mtl defender catches the ball for an INT. The ref doesn't even let the ball land on the ground and blows the whistle. The CFL is a great idea that has been mismanaged for a couple generations now.
