Adams Jr starting to roll. Got real lucky on that fumble tho, good job by his young receiver hustling downfield after the play. Maier shows too much confidence in his arm, throwing to the wide side deep, ugly pick ... comes back and throws deep to the boundary ... real pretty play.

Week 3 Practice Notes & Discussions
Yeah, stop the run was clearly Job 1 for the Argos last week. Tons of guys in the box clogging their gaps. And in the end, it didn't matter. Zach passed for nearly 300 yards, our D gave em nothing except for the Arbuckle drive, and we won comfortably. Interesting thing: we haven't scored a TD from the red zone yet. Zach / Demski / Lawler / Bailey doing damage from outside the 20.

On one hand, you're not wrong. On the other hand, the Redblacks sure seem to miss him. 19-17 in 2017-2018 with him, 3-15 in 2019 without him.

Tonight: Elks (+3.5) at BC The Lions are no longer owned by a dead guy; hopefully new owner Amar Doman is not a Pezim or a Skalbania. He's got some work ahead of him to rebuild the Lions brand. Good luck to him. For BC, Michael Reilly listed as starter with a -Q suffix (questionable, game time decision) so ah, bet accordingly. He was again listed as limited all week in practice. BC has completely revamped its kicking game. Global kicker Taeru Yamasaki has been cut and global punter Jake Ford is on the suspended list. In their place they are rolling out two (!) import kickers: recently signed PK Jimmy Camacho and practice roster punter Stefan Flintoff. Their global player is now Niklas Gustav, who backs up at the QK (?) position on the DL. (maybe it's the James "QuicK" Parker position?) For the Elks, Armanti Edwards (just 33 yards on five catches so far) is injured as is import LT D'Antne Demery. Canadian Kyle Saxelid will start in Demery's place. Somehow Trevor Harris is the yardage leader in passing with both Edwards and Ellingson producing very little. The Elks should've rebranded as the Edmonton Engima. The betting line is EDM + 3.5. CFL.ca was 4-2 BC. MBB was 35-7 (83%) BC. So the stage is set for a huge Elk victory tonight, further confusing the CFL's muddled power rankings.

When my mom used my full name, it meant that **** had just gotten real. Michael must've grown up with a less angry mom.

Week 2 thoughts
Per 3 Down Nation, BC have released shaky global kicker Takeru Yamasaki, and have signed American kicker Jimmy Camacho and Canadian kicker Félix Ménard-Brière.

I think Doug Flutie himself would be road pizza behind that OL.

I dunno, on a play like that you've gotta get the steamboats from your OL. Van Zeyl rhyming with turnstile today.

Hamilton RT beaten cleanly on the fumble. Hamilton OL stinky.

so the pass rush needs to be a little more cautious against Fajardo because he's got moves? as opposed to Nichols who doesn't?

that pass to Picton is the kind of play I'd like to see from the Bombers ... hit the receiver in flight down the seam.

Gambling Discussion
for sure, but for some folks their vice is a life and family wrecker. I don't know where the balance is, how much stuff we need to clamp down on in order to protect those vulnerable people. it's like any other kind of thing -- guns or drugs or whatever -- most people use them responsibly but some don't and they wreck their lives and others. Definitely think the CFL has a responsibility to acknowledge the dark side of gambling and make on-air announcements about how to get help.

Hamilton pass protection does not look good enough to give Masoli the time he needs.
