    It was a blown call. It’s incredibly concerning that the refs and the command center both look at that and say “Yep. Good to go.” That hurts the reputation of the league.

I'd prefer they tighten things up and at least get the easy calls right, but if they're going to be that bad I think you're right.

here's an idea....they should live stream the review on air, which would be easy, to see the discussion and the reasoning, instead of having idiots like Suitor try and analyze it, I guarantee that would eliminate the crappy calls, knowing the whole audience is watching...

Agreed. Waste of time.

One of good things the XFL did.

The league should hire a review analyst who can provide actual insight to viewers, rather than have commentators do it. Suitor consistently lets his bias cloud the impartiality of his colour commentary.

It wouldn't be a difficult thing to add to game coverage, IMO.

Even four stripes don't like him... 😂

Anti-Rider bias😄

And this is why he, and the tall foreheads at TSN, think he's doing a great job. Because he's getting heat from "both sides", he figures he must be doing it perfectly down the middle.

BTW IGF was deafening yesterday. If that was in Regina it would have been mentioned every play.

My voice is raw today...there was a lotta screaming in 227, along with many many cowbells and a couple of the plastic horns. Loud n proud, baby....

100% about TSN and that place was rocking the whole time. Go watch the 2019 West Final. No comparison for noise.

Hope the Bombers came out of this game healthy, I did see Harris hold his hand late in the game but he didn't look hampered when he was running around IGF with the Bomber flag

I didn’t see any significant injuries on either team (except for maybe a few hurt egos on the Rider side). Always amazing these guys can take hits like that in the cold and hit a frozen field and manage to pop back up. I get a paper cut and I’m out of commission for a week.

My voice was shot by half time. The weight on my cowbell flew off the chain so I had to do something to make up for it.

The noise....the electricity....the atmosphere....totally unmatched in this league....rewatching on T.V doesn't even do it justice, but still comes across as crazy loud

I forced myself to listen to the tail end of the Rider postgame show (620?) with Wes Cates, some irritant named "the professor" and "Ballsy" their bigmouthed nudnik host. Totally high school radio.

Anyway, the one thing that they agreed upon is that BB fans have overtaken (disputable) the Riders in terms of fan experience and fan reaction. I couldn't believe my ears, but they all agreed it was so and wondered how they could get that mojo back.

On a related note, Wpg. call-in folks are absolute MENSA members compared to the Sasky bunch.
