If the rule is simply that the visiting team should avoid going into the home team’s stands, then the Williams fine os OK, but Dom Davis absolutely have been fined, even if the attempt was poor (the intent was totally there). And Williams was clearly celebrating with his team’s fans, in a special section with no threat to the opposing home town fans. And in regard to the Argo Ti-Cat incident, it was the home team in it’s home stadium that fought with visiting fans. So either you make a blanket rule of “zero fan interaction of any kind” and things like the Bomber TD hop get banned, or you do a case by case basis based on observed threat, in which case the decisions on Williams and Davis both don’t make sense. So what does the league do next time a Rider jumps into his own home stands, eats nachos, gets fined, and rightfully says if that is a breach where is the Bomber fine for every TD celebration where they jump into the stands? Then the Hardrick Hop gets banned and this is why we can never have nice things. Or the Rider doesn’t get fined and where is the consistency? Especially when the league enjoyed the positive fan PR of the creative celebration and ran highlights of it on Twitter (since edited) and their website. This kerfuffle seems to be based on a 3D Nation article, has the league actually specified the reason for the fine? I think separating players from fans has more to do with the CFL's Covid protocol than the incident in T.O. last season, and I don't recall any Bomber player physically entering the stands this season or last, like they did in 2019. I know nobody wants to rehash the topic but a Rider/Argo game was re-scheduled less than a month ago due to a Covid outbreak, so it's still a thing.

Clarke was a dirty player and a rotten person. “We didn’t tell him to go get cancer, he got goofy on us” while Sidney is a class act. Weird take. Ryan O' Reilly's nuts would like to have a word with you on that "class act" comment. 1 hour ago, Dr Zaius said: Bobby Clarke might be the single biggest POS in the history of the NHL and that's saying something Are you from Winnipeg and never heard of Bobby Hull? This disrespect for the best Manitoba-born hockey player in the history of the universe will not stand.

Evidence: Funny thing, if seeing a player hoist the Cup demostrates how good he is, then you must be a big Habs fan because they won the Cup through the 70's more than Philly (and all other teams combined), but yea, he was the best player of his time...
August 19, 20222 yr comment_587937 1. Literally nobody other than you thinks Bobby Clarke was better than Bobby Orr. 2. Of course a Flyers Cup picture is in black and white #lastoneever Bye weeks are the worst Got me disagreeing with Noeller. That never happens

Just responding GeeBrr style (suggesting Crosby is better than McDavid)

August 19, 20222 yr comment_587974 Who cares that he's from Manitoba? I guess that means he's the first shitty person to ever come out of the province. Guy was an objective ****ing piece of trash of a human. " "Roger got cancer - that wasn't our fault. We didn't tell him to go get cancer". GTFO here
