| Rider fans at Mosiac Stadium in Regina couldn't help Saskatchewan beat Montreal or help Ward keep his perfect streak going. |

Mr.
Perfect is not perfect anymore.
With
an "interesting" – replacement ref-type pass interference -- call (no
bias here whatsoever) that wiped out a Saskatchewan interception and allowed
the Montreal crew another TD (which was the winning margin) the Riders managed
to lose on Saturday and thus my perfection is no more.
I
know the CFL has bigger (foot) balls, but Shea Emery’s punch below the belt
proves now that Mr. Brendon Labatte (yes, I will call him Mr. as he's frickin’ huge)
now possess possibly bigger . . .
Speaking
of swollen, does anyone feel for Andy Fantuuuuz? Game essentially won with a 30-yard
field goal attempt for the Ticats but the ball was apparently frozen, snowy,
icy, etc. and two ex-Riders couldn't connect for the final three points to win in Calgary.
Ironically,
it allowed the riders to at least clinch a crossover playoff game. And it
didn't make me 2-2 for the weekend. Thanks Andy, I guess!
I
see Winnipeg and the Ticats play this weekend. Makes you wonder if the Blue Bombers
could play the banjo for the final 45 seconds that they could of been in a better
position for the playoffs, too. Only in the CFL -- and that is what makes it
great!
More
thoughts and picks coming up later in the week. I won't allow any B.C. Lions to
tweet me until then!
Speaking
of tweets, Emery did use social media to say sorry to Labatte. Check it out at:
