Good play by Rasouli to save Buck's life on that sack. It could have been lights out for Buck if Rasouli doesn't slide off and take the guy coming in free. His original block got the sack, but he saved Buck from taking a big hit.

dont crumble

Lucky that Ray overthrew those two passes.

I mentioned this issue in another thread before. In Commonwealth Stadium, in the sidelines, the corners are clipped so that it`s not a true rectangle. Had that receiver caught that ball, he probably would have had a TD in other stadiums.

Isn`t there CFL regulation field rules with regards to the end zone. It should be 20 yards long for a TD. But that doesn`t apply to corners.

Dodged a bullet. The Esks are coming on. Hope the Lions make the appropriate adjustments at the half.

The Esks are hurting. It's our game to lose!

Doesn't Cates play for Saskatchewan ?

The CFL fields use to be 25 yards deep until BC Place was built, they then trimmed the depth to the 20 yard endzones that we have. They are pretty good for the most part, it was really difficult during the US expansion era.

Ivor Wynne used to have cutoff corners too but I think they set it to full size a few years ago.

SOB went after Buck on that play!!! Bastard!!

Wow. They finally called a Roughing the Passer on Bucky!

I'm surprised the refs called roughing the passer

We are actually playing quite well today. Buck has looked good. Hopefully he can stay healthy because Edmonton taking those cheapshots at him has me worried...

GREEN!!!! Gets the first down!! GREEN!!

Amazing that they called it. Buck embellished it a bit methinks.
