Rain starting to fall... that oughta set the offences on fire.
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.

Suitor saying Ottawa DBS daring Lions to go deep and they simply won't. Great work Khari.

Look out if RedBlacks take the lead here in monsoon conditions.

Ads blowing around everywhere, just the purrfect metaphor for the chaos of this game.

Weather a factor on the poor snap for the Ott FGA. Score remains 7-5, BC takes over on downs.

We're winning the turnover battle 3-0 and we could still lose this game.

Game now paused pending lightning concerns.

Turnover on downs instead of a field goal. Lions ahead 3-0 in the turnover battle. No Wast Fivision team has won a game when losin the turnover battle.

Kevin Glenn must feel some redemption as Lulay is getting the crappy stuff he has had to suffer through.

What a freaking storm....

This game is on four channels, btw. Might have to give that button a harder-than-normal workout LOL.

Lulay, Glenn or whomever .... Lions nearly two full games without producing an offensive touchdown. And Skulsky was saying he was concerned about the level of excitement this season before the Riders visit.

Reality now starting to set in with me the Lions very well maybe on the outside looking in at the playoffs this year. This coaching staff is simply not good enough.
