Can't really blame the fans for the bad attendance. Very tough to get excited about this Stamps team and the games are far from entertaining (especially the last couple home games).

Well thrown pass by Ray for the TD
I have talked about bad calls the refs made for the Stamps earlier in the year. Haven't seen any this game.

I think the spot was tight but he did make the first down on the replay they showed. Probably could have been measured but looked like a first down.

And not calling BS 15 yard calls is not a hard part of the job. Holding on the line is.

I wonder if the Argos will try and spin this to show that they are better off without Boyd.

The offense has been pretty awful and the run game non-existent.

I am sure they could have scored 0 points and had negative offense and those idiots would have spun it as a good thing.

Ya, I agree. While the Stamps are supremely undisciplined, the officiating in this game is pretty one-sided.

Our offense looks toothless, what is going on. Nice play to get the 1st though on the gamble.

Fraser is the most timid safety in the league. I guarantee the D would improve if they had someone else out there. Slow on reads, missed tackles. Yikes

i am so tired of watching Stamps play the Argos. This game could have been an easy win but for some reason they tend to mess it up everytime they play the Argos. Stupid penalties earlier and Glenn throwing INT on the time they needed to score.. strange things always happen against the Argos.

That was a really good onside kick that Calgary probably should have recovered.

Oh well the team (especially offense) deserve to lose this game with that pathetic effort against an awful team.

What an ugly game. I suppose the Argos wanted it more? Hard to say. Discipline killed the Stamps. Don't like "bad" penalties? Don't give the ref an opportunity to call anything.

Argos and Stamps look to both be pretty average teams, though both Ds did fairly well.

Lovely evening for a game, kudos to the fans who went. Wish I could have been there.

For argument's sake, Glenn may be a fantastic QB when it comes to thinking the game, decision making, and mobility, although I think he is average at best in these categories, but his arm is on par with a second string high school QB.

I can't stand watching him throw; it just looks so impotent.

is it just me or does it seem like he has such a low release point on his throws that he gets tipped more than most QBs?

All the teams look pretty average to me. Though I still believe the Lions are a class above everyone else.

I didn't see much of the game as i was removing the back door. Once awhile I checked the game and most of the stuff that i've seen whenever i check the game, it was bad. Cornish hitting an Argo player without the ball 15 yard penalty, Nik Lewis catching the ball to the 10 yard line but he started beaking off at Brandon Isaac then here comes the flag..10 yards penalty then Glenn couldn't do crap. If they scored on that series, that could have been a game changer for the Stamps. Then after the half Keon Raymond hit the receiver's head when he was down... 15 yards penalty. Then Kevin Glenn throwing an INT when they needed to score. Coincidence? Oh wait i did see Demonte Bolden sacking Ricky Ray and that on-side kick that we almost recovered. I have to say that was a great trick play that almost work.

From what i heard, both offense sucks big time. Tired of Stamps inconsistencies, play well one game, don't show the next game and they seem to play crappy against the Argos.

Kevin Glenn is one if the worst QBs I've seen. When is Tate back?
