Hope Acklin is okay, that was a scary hit he took in the endzone just now. Nothing dirty about the hit, just a terrible result.

Redblacks Twitter says Acklin is conscious and has movement in all extremities. Going to hospital for further evaluations. Great news about movement cause that was scary.

I thought nothing could be worse than those vuvuzelas during the 2010 World Cup. I was wrong.

The Elks look pretty good today - It's early, but I'm concerned about Labour Day.

They are playing the best overall football in the west right now.

we are going to get spanked on labour day. Hopefully bad enough it will be Dickenson's last game here.

You are giving the elks way too much credit, they are not good especially if Mbt is at quarterback.

That turnover on downs play is typical CFL. You need 10 yards and your receiver runs a 5-7 yard route.

Well, this game has confirmed two things for me: 1. Edmonton will be a legit contender for a playoff game in the west (helps that no one in the division is separating themselves). 2. Chris Jones ####ing sucks at coaching CFL football

I'll add one more point... Obviously the west is wide open, but arguably this entire league is wide open.

I mean, if 9-1 Montreal can almost lose that game against the 3-7 Elks at home, on the night their starting QB comes back... I don't know. Could be an interesting November in the CFL, that's for sure.

The Als defense is very good and gives Montreal a chance to win every game.

The esks should have kicked the field goal instead of that 3rd down gamble since they still had a time out. Cost them the game.

The balance of power seems to be in the east now. Never in my life did I think I would see this happen.
