CFL 2012 regular season thread

Should be a fumble but can't imagine the CFL makes a call that goes against the Priders.

[Notorious Honey Badger]

It's scary but I agree with moon. I think the CFL is riddled with very average teams. Then again you can't really determine what's what until after labour day anyways.

LOL CFL reffing.

I shouldn't be surprised but every year I come back thinking it will be different and every year it is an absolute joke.

moon for all the moaning you do about reffing, why do you actually try it and find out how hard it actually is.

I think it is hard doesn't mean that easy things that get missed should get missed or that one team in the league should be by far the biggest recipient of calls to help them out.

The CFL reffing is below human error/tough job problem and into the incompetent/crooked level.

Wasn't able to watch the Riders-Lions game at all but only giving up 20 points to the Lions is a good showing. Stats show Lulay still put up a tonne of yards but turned the ball over. Durant didn't. I'll watch the game when I get the chance.

Watching the Argos-Ti Cats game now. Rod Black is so bad.

Burris is still a very good QB when he wants to be. He has all the tools, just the mental side holds him back

Joffrey Reynolds charged with assault

Very sad if true. I always thought he was one of the classy Stamps

Will the Marc Trestman leaving for the NCAA or NFL rumors for the next four years go away? He has signed a contract extension with Montreal.

I think we have see the last of Buck Pierce, is now out 4 to 6 weeks with torn ligaments and muscle in his foot.

[M*A*S*H 4077]

Unfortunately he is probably done. He's a fierce competitor who could never stay healthy

[Notorious Honey Badger]

Buck is likely done as a Bomber. At least thats the logical move

So knowing this teams thought process he will surely be made the #1 again as soon as he can hobble on the to the field temporarily.

Jamie Nye:

Bagg's injury was not hamstring, it is his left knee. 9-game injured list. Frustration continues for him.

The news right now is Bagg tore the ACL in his left knee. He's torn ACL in right knee twice. Awaiting confirmation from ‪#Riders.

[M*A*S*H 4077]

Man that is brutal. But for him to come back and finish the game with a torn ACL, that takes guts.

Was looking forward to seeing him on Thursday.


Edit: to add, with serious knee injuries to both knees now, I think Bagg is done.

Yeah really too bad. What is it with some guys and their knees?

Wasn't that what forced Dominguez to retire? Constant knee issues.

[Drake]

WTF?

That the Regina media contingent would be caught off guard wasn’t a big deal; after all, Bagg himself hadn’t given any indication that the injury he picked up last week against the Lions was noteworthy, and insisted it was nothing more than a tweaked hammy. It was thought that he would be a game-time decision.

But the fact that coach Corey Chamblin wasn’t aware of the fact that Bagg had been placed on the nine-game injured list with a knee injury (not the same knee he hurt last year, by the way) was odd. He was on the plane with the team, apparently, when that roster move was made by GM Brendan Taman, and didn’t know for sure until he was asked about it by a media type at the Riders’ news conference a couple hours ago.

Yep, that's what did Dominquez in. BTW, Matt Dominguez, great guy

[Notorious Honey Badger]

i hate these new bomber jerseys so much i want to punch small children.

[Machiavelli]

What an awful game...the Bombers are so bad they're barely leading after a ton of Argo mistakes.

[Notorious Honey Badger]

mmm. beautiful. good job bombers D
