Looks like Westermann is occupying the middle with Menard on the edge.

Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

Costly procedure makes it a 50yd FGA. McCallum boots it through. 27-17 BC with 3:05 left.

Let's ground this out FTW, guys!

Still love Pauly. The guy is a gamer. Sask fans deserved to lose him to us for 10 years and win 2 cups along the way

If McCallum is still so good on long distance FGAs, why didn't we unleash him more last season?

Because Leone can do the same and punt bombs down the field

No dice on this series, why didn't Ssk call a timeout on our punt? Don't they have one left? Oh well. Their problem.

Ssk makes the long bomb for a huge gain and OOB. Argh. Keep your heads on, guys.
