Looks better in green IMO.

Wow, delusion is alive in Sask, Lauther has gone from bum to "the best in the league" in one year.

[Tecno]

The lauther deal is hilarious. I joked about him every time he was up for a kick. Dude still sucks. And even if he was better outside of ssk it's only because he had no pressure. He'll cave when back in the ssk pressure cooker.

Ssk fans are gonna eat him alive when he misses a gimme. It's going to destroy him, and then what will ssk do.

Man Sask is brutal, how are they ahead of us in the standings?!?!

Because their receivers run into the DBs to draw penalties. Their receivers also hold and all their players and coaches are begging for a flag on every play.

Well they won't getting no flags now, they're getting whipped, 2-5 in their last 7 games they're melting down!!!

Big Stan is going to be in so much trouble when CGY comes to town!  That Hicks & co is eating up SSK's LT repeatedly.  Just brutal.  And I'm pretty sure their LT has been better than Big Stan most of the season.

We'll have to make sure Brady & co are adding extra protection on that side.

Ya, another mugging example, and this one is extra interesting because it was challenged and overturned.  Again, I think the deciding factor on muggings is whether the DB uses hands or not.  I didn't see any hands use by the DB (just KSB!) and thus it was deemed non-DPI.

But it's still all too nebulous, and it shouldn't take a challenge to get mugging calls correct.  Something needs to be done as it's becoming an integral part of some teams' game plan.  If Dickenson The Greater didn't have a challenge at that point he'd just be out of luck and the cheaters win.

One way you can stop muggings is to make a new 10 or 15Y penalty for mugging, flaggable by EITS/command.  Kind of like the penalty for embellishing, which this is a form of.

On the bright side, SSK losing badly means #2 in the W is alive if we win out and get a little luck with CGY/BC losing.

On the downside, CGY winning makes us being last in the W an extremely possible scenario.  And with our schedule, it may be the likely scenario.

If our guys wanted to make some waves, they need to do it right now, and probably win 3 or 4, and some of those (like BC) by a large point differential.  Winning 0, 1 or 2 more probably will not get it done and we'll have our worst result since... '14?  Sad.

Needed the Riders to win but they didn't. The road just got more difficult.
