Nonsense, they called a major even though Joe H did not push nor pull on his facemask.
Umm Facemasking is ONLY a major foul. 15 yrds. If you mess with the facemask it is a penalty of 15 - no other option. Ref made the right call.
Now that I don't live in Quesnel do I need to change my handle??

Eh, if you say so, they called Henderson for the major because his hands floated upwards.

If you'd like, we can watch the replay of the game and see how many times that happens during line play?

We both know how that will turn out..don't we?
Know the smallest things and the biggest things, the shallowest things and the deepest things. As if it were a straight road mapped out on the ground ... These things cannot be explained in detail. From one thing, know ten thousand things. When you attain the Way of strategy there will not be one thing you cannot see. You must study hard.

Why? Down by 15 points, two TD's with 30 minutes left to play>?

Have to agree with LFITQ....any touching of the facemask is a major. Sure it happens and doesn't get caught but a penalty is a penalty. One of many more the Lions will get tonight.

We should be winning, instead of whining.

A gift interception puts them on the goal line...easy 7
Bonehead plays and around 10 penalties....lets say 7 more.

Ah, who am I kidding, lol, its over

Another brilliant game plan by our illustrious so called Offensive Coordinator. 6 points in the first half :bang: Now the dreaded half time where the Riders are going to make adjustments to our anemic offence.

Wow how painful was that last possession of the half to watch? God forbid they would attempt a pass beyond 15 yards.

Congrats Chaps ... even J-Jack has become ultra-conservative.

Have you seen anything on the field that suggests we can even keep pace, let alone make up the deficit?

Man, feels like I just watched a full 60 minutes of football. :hypno:

We are self destructing badly. Don't know what Sask's D is doing but there isn't an open receiver to throw to. Another 30 minutes to look forward to? :tease:

You really hate the Riders to try and look at positives in this game. :good:
