The official box score for the game says the Bombers were penalized 9 times for 95 yards and the RedBlacks 6 times for 80 yards. At one point in the 4th quarter it was 9-3. Maybe that's when he began to wonder.

I was quoting TSN I think in the 4th quarter when they were 9 to 3 .... there must have been according to you 3 more subsequent penalties in our favor .... maybe they evened them up late in the game much as we saw in a badly called hockey game BTW where did you find your box score?
August 6, 20177 yr comment_281515 Worth noting - our special teams units only took one penalty. https://www.cfl.ca/games/2397/winnipeg-blue-bombers-vs-ottawa-redblacks/#boxscore
August 7, 20177 yr comment_281552 I think the pace was more due to both teams not going 2 and out much. First half was so quick.. Second half was quick but a little slower due to Ottawa not really moving the ball for periods of time.
August 8, 20177 yr comment_281832 So much salt in this thread ( not unwarranted mind you) - so there's this to brighten the mood:
August 9, 20177 yr comment_281888 Sounds like Kermit the Frog. Nice try but not a fan of the execution. Needs a lot of work on the french accent.
August 9, 20177 yr comment_281895 I find the refs far too incompetent to ever be consistently bias against any team.

If that's what they were going for it's completely ridiculous. Just lay on a huge, stereotypical Quebecois accent (a slight exaggeration of Andre Proulx's normal voice ) and it would be so much better. And if it's as you say using the Frog/French connection it's rather insulting to boot. Although an exaggerated French accent might not be much better lol.

Not a French Canadian ref who has a thick accent. Why else would they use Kermit? Anyway it sucks as it really isn't funny. Edited August 9, 20177 yr by SpeedFlex27

Anyway it sucks as it really isn't funny. Did you not read my last post? I already got your point about it mimicking Kermit. And then I moved on to how I thought the video could have been funnier (thick french accent like Proulx has instead of lame insulting Kermit voice). Doing the video pretending to be Andre Proulx singing Taylor Swift with the altered lyrics might have worked as comedy. Kermit voice certainly didn't.
