Why didnt burnham lay it out on the play before Collie.

Collie's dad and Tedford were both at Hamilton..I don't recall Collie.

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.

Liked Black quickly rejecting a deal as 'these guys are in business' - so true when friends expect deals.
Good point, Toppy. The working class folks gotta pay. Let the media guys pay. And JonHR and Harris need to make a buck.

OK, we look like a team with some hope. But this game is up for grabs.

Dang, contact penalty negates the INT!

Tedford is all business on the sideline. One cannot help but be positively impressed.

As Black noted the players credit him for structure, planning and discipline. But he is also a players' coach.

Our defence is OK, but still kind of vanilla.

Westerman showing good speed and power.

Burris calls a timeout (Ott's 2nd?) to avoid the TCV.
