GA Russell Posted July 12, 2013 Author Report Posted July 12, 2013 The Ticats' new ballpark will be called Tim Hortons Field (apparently no apostrophe in Hortons). http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4608659 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=427533 ***** Saskatchewan Roughriders 39....Toronto Argonauts 28 http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4608676 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=427530 The Riders remain undefeated. The Argos started strong, but faded in the first half when an interception returned for a touchdown was called back for pass interference. The Riders' Taj Smith caught two bombs for TDs. Quote

I want to say, "two evenly matched bad teams" but it's probably too early in the season to make that judgment. ***** All four of the Eastern teams are now 1-2. http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/stand/standings.aspx ***** British Columbia Lions 17....Edmonton Eskimos 3 http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4609263 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=427678 Heavy downpour in Edmonton the entire game. Wet ball, lots of fumbling. The Eskimos led 3-1 at the half. Quote

The Stamps scored the next 35. This set a record, coming back from being down 24 in the first quarter. The previous record was 20. Two years ago Paul McCallum set the record with 30 consecutive field goals. Rene Parades kicked four to move his streak to 29. Very, very late in the game, he attempted a 34-yarder to tie the record, but it was blocked. After the game, the league announced that because the ball never crossed the line of scrimmage, it is considered a fumble, so Parades' streak continues. ***** British Columbia Lions 31....Edmonton Eskimos 21 http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4610709 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=428097 The game started slowly, but BC gained the momentum in the second quarter and never looked back. ***** Saskatchewan Roughriders 37....Hamilton Tiger-Cats 0 http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4610856 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=428155 The Riders remain the league's only undefeated team. Shutouts are very rare in the CFL. Quote

The Als dominated, but the Eskimos got it together in the second half, and took the lead in the fourth quarter. The Als took it back, and won the game on the last play by holding the Esks on a goal line stand. Quote
GA Russell Posted July 26, 2013 Author Report Posted July 26, 2013 The Ticats have removed Dave Stala from the nine game injured list early, and he will play tomorrow against the Riders. I didn't know that a player could be removed from the nine game list before the nine games were played. Since their salaries do not count against the cap, it would seem to me to be a place to stash players. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=428494 Quote
GA Russell Posted July 27, 2013 Author Report Posted July 27, 2013 Calgary Stampeders 37....Winnipeg Blue Bombers 24 http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4612146 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=428531 Kevin Glenn's arm still hurt from last week, so the Stamps started their third stringer Bo Levi Mitchell. He looked good, so now the question is, who will be the one quarterback the Stamps protect in the Ottawa expansion draft? The Bombers made a game of it for a while, but the Stamps outscored them 10-0 in the third quarter, and the Bombers never caught up after that. Rene Parades set the record for most consecutive field goals, and is now up to I think 34. The Bombers started their second string QB Justin Goltz, and he didn't look bad. Quote

Darian Durant's foot has been hurting the past two weeks, so Corey Chamblin gave him the day off and played Drew Willy instead. Kory Sheets has rushed for 100 yards all five games so far. Quote
GA Russell Posted July 28, 2013 Author Report Posted July 28, 2013 Ricky Ray hurt his knee in last week's game, and won't play Tuesday. Zach Collaros will get the start. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=428648 Quote
