That was probably the worst angle you could hit that signage. I really hope he is OK, as that's a tough way to go

CFL players don't make enough money to have to put up with potential life threatening injuries from advertisement boards that are too close to the sidelines. This is bad. Hopefully it's precautionary and maybe the league can finally change the placement of these as you see players collide with them every game.

Just saw his lips move- I hope that's a good indication.

(I almost said good sign.)

No doubt.

Look at the closeup of the sign, it's a plastic hollow design. The edges of those things are actually quite sharp!

His throat did get slashed but it didn't look deep.

That's going to be one hell of a paper cut.

Hope that's all it is and the kid gets released tonight.

I think passing plays are off the table for the Stamps right now.

I have a really bad feeling that the Eskimos are going to pursue Chris Jones hard to be their new head coach in the offseason.

Burris is still off his game. The Stamps really should think about taking him out before he throws another pick that costs the team points.

You know what would be nice? If we could get some decent punt returns.

There's a nice toss by Hank.

Special teams just not performing to the level of the offense and defense. Maybe the Lions special teams are that much better but the Lions have won one thing all night and it's the field position battle (and the turnovers of course).

If B.C. loses this game I don't see how Wally still has a job.

TD Burris! Make that Tate.

BC is a bad football team. If not for Frank making an appearance it would be around 50 - 10 or more. Unbelievable how bad the Eskimos and Lions are. I can't ever recall both teams being so inept.
