Yeah the SD feed is just weird to watch. It seems that at least one game every year is in SD on ESPN3. Not sure what could cause that other than carbon units. I’m suspecting the feed from the source.
The commercials on ESPN (most are American but I think I’ve seen the occasional Canadian ad) are head and shoulders better than previous years, even if they do loop too much. I remember the absolute WORST commercial of all time was the one for ENZITE boner pills that was played on continuous loop. I wanted to throw my TV out the window. That was on Comcast SportsNet I think.
This the Youtube link for the former CFL advertiser, but I warn you, this commercial may cause E.D if watched continuously:
TSN has the camera wire set up again good to see the money spent on production . Too bad the game is dull.
Ti_Cats need to build some end boards similar to Winnipeg to cut down on the wind and give them some ad revenue to boot. The wind is making the kicking game a farce which would be fine once in awhile but it seems this happens too often at THF .
It’s been going on for years. Putting an entertaining product on the field is important. I have family members who have stopped watching because they feel it is a snooze-fest. First the Argos hit 95% capacity and bleep the bed, now the Ticats can barely outscore the Jays. I am not sure how to modify this game to make it better but it needs to be done.
P.S. If you really find me that annoying, feel free to block me. :thup:
Damn. Like for those of us without TSN or in the US without ESPN3, so I went to find a thread elsewhere online.
It's the first time in years, and only the third time ever since 2010, that I can't find a decent pirate feed.
Oh I found some links alright, but "registration" scams and hackware are everywhere. These are pirates after all. Or it could be that I am still running OS X.
Anyone else don't fall for the "call this number, your computer is infected" BS and the like.
Oh well, it looks like low scoring but I'll catch up via the comments and the game tracker and catch the highlights tomorrow.
The games have been shit ever since Cohon went on Sportsnet and cryed how the CFL was mom and pop… Then the owners hoarded a 200 million dollar windfall and the players said screw it. If you aren’t going to pay us, then we arent going to practice. With lack of practice, O-lines around he league sucked and every single QB has been out for atleast 6 games. Not to be outdone, every other position just takes tons of penalties,because they never practice either. The game is a mistake filled blooper ball now, where winning games is based on not screwing up as much as the other team.
I say this while Hamilton literally is handing a TD to BC through multiple penalties
Wow no doubt, I see four missed field goals out of six attempts already wow.
Now after scoring a touchdown to go up 18-2 including a single on the kickoff, BC might as well play more solid defence and kick for singles I guess. :roll:
I’m not trying to be a jerk when I complain about the game. However, I just watched a 6 hour Jays game where I was on the edge of my seat all thru extra innings. I saw everyday players pitch for the Jays - Goins and Barney. I saw amazing catches. It was so exciting. Thank God for small favours when the Jays lost.
Then I turn to TSN to watch the team I LOVE and it’s painful to watch. And, like I said, a friend went to her first Ticat game today on my recommendation.
I read a post just like this by you on a different thread earlier today sir. Often I do enjoy your comedy and alternative take, and I agree with you on lack of practice time.
