Im sure they are contracted to show Sunday Night football as soon as they are able....or they would have been talking about that game for a while. During the regular season they always went back to the studio if there was time.

Man, that was a wild finish!! I love the CFL because no win is guaranteed until the whistle blow. I was having a hard time watching the game with 20 seconds left knowing Darian Durant can throw the ball giving time. I can finally breathe again. Wow!!

Overall, I think Drew Tate played well enough to win the game. In the first half he was up and down but the 2nd half he played a lot better. Romby Bryant redeemed himself. The Real JC silenced the Riders again by rushing for over 100 yards. Mo Price, man our future receiving crew is in good hands. Defense played well today but they kind of slipped in the 4th quarter especially the DBs. I thought the worst defensive player today was MLB Juwan Simpson who were schooled by Kory Sheet all game. S Eric Fraser with his stupid decision almost cost us the game. Oh yeah thanks to that BS call by the referee on Nik Lewis TD. I am just glad this game is over and we are heading to BC for the Western Final.

It's the same for everything.

Somebody scores the winner in triple OT during the NHL playoffs? We're not even going to show you a replay and instead we'll send you right to Sportscentre.

Simply awful.

Very well could of, but it didn't and in the end had no effect other then maybe firing them up a little more.

lol. There's no trophies for winning playoff games at McMahon Stadium. Also, you do realize Henry Burris won a Grey Cup in Calgary, eh? Kind of perplexing comments.

Listening to the Riders post-game (Cornish really didn't hurt you today). Yeah, 109 yards rushing (including a big run to set-up a field goal in the first half) didn't hurt the Riders much at all.

With TSN they usually go to SportsCentre, show the highlights then go to the panel and do about 8 minutes till the commercial break.

Again, TSN is likely under contractual obligation to do just this.

When have they done that?

Plus, they'll show the replay during Sportscentre, since it's basically a post-game show extension.

TSN does that with everything. No matter how exciting a game is, or no matter hwo important. Game ends - show a bit of reaction from crowd/players - cut to sportcentre/next show.

Have you ever watched TSN?

TSN may have better talent, better HD... but this is why CBC is always better for hockey.

Ya. For general games, they do that. But for OT goals in playoffs IIRC, they usually show the replay once before going to sportscentre where it's shown again.

TSN after a hockey game, if it's their broadcast, will even go back to the PBP and color team for a wrap up in SportsCentre. It acts like a post game show. Blows my mind the ignorance people will show when complaining about networks.

If they don't show a replay immediately to extend the coverage 30 seconds, when they're going to show it anyway in a minute or two, they're terrible at covering the game.

That's not a post game show, that is Sportscenter with a segment about the game.

An epic CFL playoff battle and we're talking about TSN? TSN?!?

It's funny -- at the end of the day the scoreboard will show up as a 36-30 win for the Stamps. However, the improbable way both teams ended up getting there (give credit to the Riders for not giving up) -- a classic CFL playoff game if there ever was one.

Woopty doo. Lavel it however you want. You get the highlights of the game, a panel breaks it down as do the people who called the game. And I'd much rather have it that way, for a national broadcast.
