Quote from: Blue In BC on June 28, 2026, 03:12:35 PMInjuries are hurting every team. Calgary was missing Begelton and Adrian Greene. As you mentioned the mistakes are the difference in many games so far.

McAllister is something else. Two return TD's in 2 games. That may have been the most significant turning point.

Lions scored a bit in garbage time to make it look closer than it was even though the stats favoured the Lions.

For sure. Calgary looked strong, boosted by McAllister, but when Begelton and Greene get back, look out. Same for the Lions. We lost to lowly Edmonton , so we are in a battle for 4 th spot in the west

It will be interesting to see what they do with Jermaine Jackson, they cut him once but I don't think they'll make the same mistake again, turns out he's one of the most dynamic small receivers in the league.

Changes had to be made to wake them up. This was the easiest one to make. Benevides is next

He's been around the CFL since 2000 and been on the coaching staff of every team except Hamilton, some teams like the Bombers multiple times.

Ya, in the CFL TC cuts thread I noted how shocking it was when they cut him. He lit it up on PS.

Funny thing is, he was available on the couch market for a week or 3... anyone could have snagged him!! ELC!

Quote from: GOLDMEMBER on June 28, 2026, 02:45:46 PMThursdays game looked min 1500 short of a sellout.

Telling ya, they are all walking around the N. EZ. And didn't you notice a lot of the empties around you finally filled up around halftime? I did.

I think with the good weather a lot of people are like: "let's go hang out at PAS tonight"; even after KO.

WM can decide at the last minute to convert more seats from $60 sit-downs into $25 standing-only. That might push it over capacity if the demand is there. Of course it means less revenues than real seat buyers will produce (like at Banjo Bowl). And it's harder to repeat when it gets cold in Oct.
