I also like the XFL style presentation of completely open mics on field 
NFL does their best to sterilize the trash talk, CFL has a whole show dedicated to it  |

W - T - F? Lions getting bitch slapped by the Roughriders.
Michael Reilly not playing today so noob QB comes in. Lions were down 28-0. Then, out of nowhere, the Canadian born QB throws a strike. They go for a two pointer and fail. Just before then of the first half, the Lions go for a field goal. This kicker is from Japan of all places. He punches it in for three points. What?
The punter for BC is from Australia. Damn.
BC is clawing their way back............

Michael Reilly comes onto the field in the second half. All of a sudden, the Lions have life. T. J. Lee intercepts a Fajardo throw and gains some decent yards. Damn.

I'm sure the game is over by now. I'm watching a recording of the game. Had to go pick up my son and just catching up. 32-22 for the green. 4th quarter........

Damn, the fans are controlling the game. BC Lions cannot hear the count. Time count violation. Even with an injured elbow, Reilly is getting it done. Completing passes with less than stellar accuracy and speed.

Wow, I thought the Riders got an interception, but upon review it was deemed an incomplete pass. 4 minutes to go in the game and Yamasaki goes for a field goal and misses. One point, so lions are 9 points behind.
Reilly out of the game. The rookie Canadian QB, Nathan Rourke, back in and he throws a strike to Burnham........... and another one for a TD!!!!!! A Canadian QB is a rarity and this youngster is stepping up. 33-29. Damn..........

Oh well, the game looked like it was over in the first half, but the comeback was amazing.

Damn, this Yamazaki kid from Japan is killing us......... missed another field goal. 2 for 5, not a great stat. Definitely not a Lui Passaglia.

61 yard strike to Burnham! Reilly's arm sill good. Reports say Rainey is faster this year. Can't wait to see that guy scamper for a kick return TD.
Takeru puts one through the uprights. 4-0
Roar, Lions, ROAR.

Lol, Henry tackled by Ford. Ford might have scored on that kick off return if it weren't for Henry.
Lions defensive four getting it done. Another QB sack.
Calgary picked off. Lions ball!!

Wow, BC Lions coach........... what the hell? 3rd down with a yard and a half to go and the Lions go for it. WHY??? Even Wally Buono would never take that kind of a gamble. Turnover on downs when they didn't have to.
No wAnder this coach lost so many games as head coach of Ottawa Redblacks in 2019. 15 losses and 3 wins..........

Lokombo pick off!
I remember meeting Bo when he was in middle school. Dude was huge compared to everybody else. I did not know he had a brother who plays for Saskatchewan. When Bo played for W. J. Mouat (Abbotsford), everybody knew he was destined to play professionally. So glad he's back playing for BC.

What a Goober.......... takes a holding penalty to negate a completed pass - ten yard penalty, then in the next play BC gets another penalty. Ensuing pickoff, Henry returns it to the BC 30.

Dickenson, the master, calls for a third and long two yarder. First down completion and they're knocking on the door........... BC stops them. Calgary decides to attempt a field goal. 3 minutes to go. Dickensen for those who don't follow the Lions, was a pretty good QB for the Lions.
15-9 Lions lead with 2:41left to play. Eat up the clock and take it down the field, just in case.

For the love of Brittney Spears, Yamazaki misses a field goal........ again!!!!!
Butt........ Calgary is now at the one yard line.
Yes, yes, yes........... BC picks off a........ a....... fricken hell. This might be pass interference. WHAT? BC gets away with one. Calgary used up all their time outs and cannot challenge the call. Replays clearly showed contact. Stampeders should have had the ball in BC territory. WOW!

Calgary has possession with 18 seconds left. Clock stops immediately, so it's still possible.
5 seconds left.......... time for one play
EDIT: 01 second left. Hail Mary time!
Hail Mary and ten people converge on it.............. In Complete. Lions take it 15 - 9.
Calgary has never gone 0-2 to start a season in a long time, if ever.
Lions get 'er done!

Next game is Thursday against the Elks............ I guess I'll eventually get used to calling them that, instead of the Eskimos. Actually, Elk does sound better. I guess it's like the Leafs (Leaves), it shouldn't be Elks, but Elk. The Elk are in town......... or the Elks are in town.
Fishes vs Fish. There are plenty of fishes in the sea is correct, as long as we're referring to many/different species of fish.
OK, back on topic.
Thursday is a home opener. Die hard fans will be there, but hoping young fans will attend. No trouble makers from out of town, please.
Roar, Lions, ROAR!

Fun fact, carl weathers, aka Apollo Creed, was a BC Lions player in the 70’s. he actually played for two seasons unlike the Rock, who got cut from the Calgary Stampeders by Wally Buono. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/254917456207...8AAOSwFNhfSaS1
