OTT vs. MTL Game Day Thread - Thursday June 20, 2024

I wouldn’t want to be the guy making this call lol

Also why isn’t the ref speaking in french?

Well if this isn’t successful, both coaches will be out of challenges with most of the game still to be played. There is a little tug on the jersey evident in the replay so this one could be successful.
OTTRBs not catching any breaks with that challenge granted.

Funny but the ref doesn’t sound French. :thinking:

Mtl continuing to cook. The league ain’t ready for mtl to run the league for the next five years.

CFL probably challenged that, because have you ever heard an NHL ref announce penalties in french?

How was that not an illegal block?

Which one? I saw about 3 and a hold…

OTTRBS coming down to earth in a hurry with a big THUD after looking good in their win last week vs the BB.

The Als may as well put on brass knuckles since they are penalty immune so far.

I assume you mean the one by Gagne who turned his body towards the sideline to box out the coverage unit.

I would have to check the rules but I’m not sure that qualifies as an illegal block.

Here is a replay. I wouldve posted the raw video but I already deleted it to save space.

That was one of the ones Squishy mentioned.

12 minute in MTL gets their first flag.

Second high snap in a row by Bourassa.

Not a great start. Lucky Joseph Zema is the best holder in the CFL.

Also interesting the REDBLACKs aren’t going to take the kickoff option here. I would want to give Dedmon every chance to break off a big one.

We might be due a site poll at some point about those “New York fries,” which south of the border I see as baffling branding, for I heard last season that the reviews are mixed.

I wonder if they sell anything else but French fries?

They also sell hot dogs!

That was a better “bounce” for the OTTRBs - potential pick bobbled to the intended receiver! Can they keep a drive going?

You mean besides fresh hand cut fries? Hot Dogs and appropriate for their sponsorship, poutine.

Who does that Dru Brown think he is throwing the ball like that, Ron Burgundy?

Earlier he tried to muscle one on the out, and it was too tight and the receiver did poorly to haul it in and off to the races with the pick.

Now he just barely got it over the defender on another throw outside.

If you are going to try to throw it like Ron Burgundy back in the day, at least put in the work for a better moustache too, Dru Brown, for you’re going from hero to zero tonight slinging like that!
