What's up with centre Marwan Hage's snaps? People always seem to be spreading the koolaid that other teams would love to have Hage, but I'm not drinking what those Jim Joneses are providing. Maybe time to consider who would be the next centre.
Toronto looks like they are capable of occasionally beating Western opponents. Montreal looked pretty good last night against Calgary, so maybe the East won't be as weak as previously predicted. If Winnipeg surprises, wow we're in trouble
Amazing the refs missed that blatant trip by the Toronto kicker on a Hamilton runback. It was plain as day all the way from section 5.
Regarding the Bruce celebration and fine, really I don't care. If the Cats stop him from scoring a TD, no celebration. If the Cats score, they can do a celebration of their own, like tipping over a garbage can as a homage to the Toronto garbage strike. Maybe they're disrespecting the Cats, but they should be disrespected, they suck.
Regarding the stats of Porter versus Joseph, Porter was 26 for 40 for 229 yards, with 2 TDs and 2 INTs (better than Jason Maas!). Joseph was 14 for 29 for 227 yards and three TDs. Interesting that Porter had a much higher completion percentage compared to Joseph, who seemed to be having a relative hot night. I haven't checked the breakdown, but Joseph probably had a higher completion percentage in the crucial first half. Porter also had a far shorter yards per completion, with almost the same yards on 26 passes versus Joseph's 14.
Surprisingly Joseph only ran once for a single yard. Porter by contrast ran nine times for 61 yards. I don't mind Porter running, especially if is for a guaranteed first down, or picking up big yards on first, but potentially greater opportunities are given up down field. Fortunately next week, BC no longer has Cameron Wake as a defensive end, so maybe Porter will get some time to throw.
