Amazing stuff as Edmonton fights to prove their worth and Winnipeg tries to establish one of the better starts they've had to a season in decades, Ottawa finally gets a home game. Ti-Cats backup QB Masoli takes over an injured Collaros against the Calgary Stampeders, then finally Solomon Elimimian and his Lions defence try to shut down the Alouette offence.

US Broadcast schedule
Thursday, July 17 8:30pm ET Edmonton vs Winnipeg ESPN2
Friday, July 18 10:00pm ET Hamilton vs Calgary ESPN2

GO GREENGOLDS.

The 70k+ 50/50 draw went unclaimed last week so it rolls over to this game. Someone's going to get paid today. Too bad the weather in Edmonton has been horrific the last two days, maybe keeping some fans away. It was ashing yesterday and it's been raining all day today. At least it washed all the smoke away.

He threw the ball into the crowd, that's always been a penalty, and it makes sense as to why.

Huh, so that's a new one. Offensive balls into crowd not a penalty because it's your own ball. Or was it just because he gently tossed it into the crowd?

Isn't there some new rule this year that teams can bring their own balls to use for their offense? So throwing away an offensive ball isn't one of Winnipegs balls so it doesn't cost them, I guess?

If it's in the official replay video when that gets up I can grab them. I can't remember the last time I saw a profession sports team troll the other team like I have tonight, and I'd like a reminder of it. It'll help when the Esks inevitably lose their first playoff game later this season.

Yeah teams each get to use their own balls this year instead of the balls just coming from a communal bag. It involves having 2 extra ball boys during the game and is extremely stupid.

There are individual players that get a bit over the top, but for teams there was the TiCats in a boat, the lovely nonsense that was Swaggerville and the all-time best TD celebration wherein Kerwin Bell was so pleased that he scored that he spiked the ball and allowed it to bounce back to hit him in the nuts.

The average NCAA team would be the favorite over a chronically bad CFL team like the Ticats.

Oy, what a terrible offensive performance by the Stamps last night. Thank goodness it came against Hamilton, and not a team that'd have made us pay for it.
