I agree with this one... "Pretending to be buried"...come on.
Quote:
TORONTO - Arland Bruce might have thought it would be a thriller but the CFL decided it was simply bad.
The league fined the Toronto slotback an undisclosed amount Thursday for his touchdown celebration in the Argos' season-opening win over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on Wednesday. Bruce said he was paying tribute to Michael Jackson. The CFL called it "excessive."
After scoring on a 21-yard pass from Kerry Joseph to put Toronto ahead 6-0, Bruce removed his helmet, shoulder pads and uniform top, then laid down in the end zone.
Bruce said he was simply honouring Jackson's memory by pretending to be buried. The game's | ... [Read More]

Whitlock onto the active roster backing up or sharing time with McCarty, thus we have to remove and import from the active roster.
LB Rod Davis was on the roster but not starting I believe. Pull him off the active roster?
Jamiaca Rector? Go with another NI receiver and pull him off the roster?
I doubt if we mess with the o-line.

I have heard of other teams doing this and I thought I noticed it last night. Anyone else notice this? Have the Esks done this before? Pretty disappointing for me if this is going on...

What I want to know is why was it O-line coach Jeff Bleamer, who had to ream out the offence just prior to scoring just before the half and not coach Hall? I guess Richie had to stay in the moment, and maybe Bleamer was just taking his cue from coach Worman up top, but at least someone said something. It looked like Bleamer was rippin' em a new one as the whole O-unit huddled around. They came out and scored and seemed to turn things around from that point on. Good on ya Jeff. Up until then the O looked rather dismal, didn't it? Ground game was nowhere to be seen and just 150 yards total in first half and 60 of that came on that scoring drive. Have to be sharper than that.
