And the O-lineman with the two point convert. Awesome.

I hope the Riders blow the game due to a penalty.

Penalties turn a 50-30 win into a 30-26 loss. Ouch.

All is well and back to normal in the CFL again. The Riders are the Riders again and the rest if the CFL scraps it out for the Grey Cup.

Haha, not entirely true though. Winnipeg hasn't won it since 1990.
Hamilton hasn't won it since 1999 either.
That's a long time to go without even fluking a championship in a league this small.

Sounds interesting, I always wonder what Americans think about the CFL and what kind of following the league has in the south. I'm sure some of the fans in the States are older and remember the days when we had CFL franchises in a bunch of American cities.
I think the rule differences might appeal to Americans. They might also appreciate that the players in the CFL tend to screw up more (fumble, turn the ball over, etc.) and that makes for more interesting games than in the NFL where they've got everything down to a science.

I'm not sure this is true when you consider more plays are run in the CFL per game? More passing with three downs. More plays, because the play clock is fast and the clock does not move at all in the last 3 minutes.

New Rider Dome under construction. Will seat 33,000, expandable to 40,000.

I'm really hoping the Stamps can put similar numbers up on the scoreboard against the Riders as they did last week against Ottawa, because S=NG.

This is what Calgary needs, not some sheet metal and plywood convention centre gymnasium.

Defence falters once again, lack of discipline haunts them yet again. Disappointing

I'm sure Jon knows better than to expect anything approaching class from that fanbase.

In a nine team league where six make the playoffs, it is not close to over. Only 3 games behind WIN and BC.

The Riders have three winnable games upcoming (next game against Ottawa and then the annual home-and-home against Winnipeg). 7-11 might be good enough for 3rd place in the West division.

So you're calling for 7-3 the rest of the way?
Good luck with that
