I almost always PVR the game and start watching at least a half hour into the game. Get to FF through the commercials that way. I got busy with something else and checked in here to see how the game was going every now and then. Nothing made me want to get inside the house and actually watch the game and I'll likely not watch it at all now. Two stinkers in a row. That's no way to fill up BC Place.
Enough is enough.

No end, omg.
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.

Sums up the coaching staff quite well. Players confused who should be on and who should be off.

Between the 4:30p PT kickoff and what with the snoozefest has unfolded in the last three hours the Lions will not be topping the league in ratings this week.

Good gamble on third down. You have to take control of a game like this and not give the opponent any extra chances.

Biggest offensive play of the game right there, in significance if not in distance (which it prob is anyway).

That was a super throw to Arceneaux.

OTT folding like a cheap tent here.

Pivotal play coming up. Need a 1st down to keep the clock moving.

Another clutch completion on second and long. Lulay is makin a statement in this drive. Despot having no running game and not much pass protection from the O line.

Fumble! :shock: Fabien recovers, BC ball. Lulay hurt, will have to exit for three plays. Might be shoulder again. Argghhhh.

And out of FGR to boot.
