I'd sue the shit out of the ref that made that call, as well as the league.

Maybe if those cheating fucks were held personally liable for some of their incompetence or corruption they'd do a better job.

He runs up behind the defender, extends his arm and the defender falls down...

Good or bad, it could sure look like a block in the back. The argument that it didn't impact the play isn't really in the rule book is it? Like, if say a tall lineman trips some guy way away from the play and so they call back a TD. Shitty, but still the right call.

Maybe my eyes aren't good and he really didn't give him a shove in the back.

Did you watch the video of the entire return? The defender starts tripping in front of the Toronto player and the Toronto player extends his arm in reaction. At least that's what it appears to me.

Maybe so. I just watched the short clip and could see how the ref could see that and call the flag, picky or not.

God, Canada looks like a cold place. It's actually about 45 degrees at this game, but everything in Calgary is already covered in a layer of snow.

Johnny Manziel gets the start tonight for Montreal against Hamilton. It’s on ESPN2 right now.

Animal · « **Reply #62 on:** August 03, 2018, 06:48:26 PM »

Johnny didn't throw himself hard enough.

Hogwildpigcrazy · « **Reply #63 on:** August 03, 2018, 06:49:03 PM »

And his first pass is a completion......to the defense. Ha!

Animal · « **Reply #64 on:** August 03, 2018, 07:12:20 PM »

So far this has been an uninvited intimate contact against the Alouettes.

Law_Hawg · « **Reply #65 on:** August 03, 2018, 07:25:59 PM »

Manziel has three INTs in the first half so far. He made a nice tackle on that one, though.

The duck/Black bear is looking great by comparison

Montreal just looks like an all-around bad team.

He’s 9-16 for 90 yards and 4 INTs in the first half.

About the only time I miss Facebook is thinking back to all those conversations from years ago where people told me I was fucking stupid about something.

I definitely got a lot of that with Manziel around draft time. Errybody who ain’t draftm’ll be serry!

Well, that was ugly.

13-16 is pretty good. And people complained about his accuracy.

Animal · « **Reply #74 on:** August 04, 2018, 06:49:55 AM »

In fairness to JM his OL play looked very familiar. But every single INT I saw was him trying to do too much.

They give you 3 downs up there so if you don’t move the ball on 1st down it gets ugly. You better know where to go with the ball and play dink and dunk.
