Geroy's 100th TD :rockin:

Lulay keeps his TD passing streak alive :thup:

Too early to go for 2 though :thdn: and it fails
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.

Congrats to 100 TDs... but shocked no TD since last OCT. stats down this year.

harris - almost wrecked this as he was so so close to making it a TD run.

SJ.. I think they had to go for 2 there. That would mean a FG would tie them if they had made the 2. 2 pts ahead would do them nothing.

Let's sign the LB coach that coached BOTH Bighill and Sherritt.

Black says the coach changed schools so coached them both! Done a monster job with these two.

Andrew Harris plays his best football against the Eskimos.

Great to see Lay and Simon finally connect but terrible call to go for two points. Way too early for that.

I'm willing to bet that Kareem Smith was upset with Mitchell over the throat slashing gestures.

WTH was Banks thinking? He didn't read that play at all.

Koch had that before it hit the turf. Right call not to challenge it, especially the way challenges are going for the Leos tonight.
