Might be a faulty memory, but I thought Pinball Clemons was a player-coach for a game back in 2000 (?) during that turbulent period. Or was it just discussed?

Remember the rouge in the Grey Cup this year being a good rouge (it was a decision to return or not), whereas the rouges in the Vanier Cup were of the bad variety (especially a missed field goal that was impossible to return). I'm OK with the 2026 CFL change in this rule.

Make sure you wear it everywhere you go.

CFL knows there's this huge pool of Canadian NFL (but not CFL) fans. Some will never look at CFL, but they figure a certain percentage could be enticed if irritants (e.g. missed FG rouges, goalposts) are removed. But they need to maintain as many traditional fans as possible. Esp. true in Toronto.

I'm always OK with this type of rouge. Too lazy to run it back, so he bought 35 yards with a point.

Should have gone for it on that 3rd down.

Anyone know if the Hamilton Wildcats had their own distinctive cheer to counter 'Oskee Wee Wee'? Even today I always hear 'Tigers' eat 'em raw, not Ti-Cats.

I sense the BC Lions will take it.

Was this an attempt to angle the ball out of bounds to just beyond the goal line, but it went out at the 3 yd. line instead?

Remember that. It was always a good hike.

Of all the differences between Cdn and US football, the 110 yd. field is the one I feel least sentimental about (the width is a red line for me). We can always mark the centreline with a 'C' even if it's the 50. The new dimensions open up so many possibilities for game sites (esp. Halifax).

There was actually a big perception problem, within Canada, about the missed field goal counting for a point when not returnable. And I'm talking people that preferred Cdn football to US. That's the one rule change (21 yr. season ticket holder) that I'm 100% behind. Like the rest but not as much.

Have you observed an increase on kickoff rouges this year? The past few games I've been noticing a lot of kickoffs going over or by the returners into the endzone where the concession is made.

That explains why I feel the way I do (EE).

The Argos should play one home game in 2027 as Balmy Beach (100th anniversary of their first Grey Cup). Hey the Leafs have done it with the St. Pats right?
