There wasn't single cheap shot even with the bogus calls the refs made against the Stamps.
The spearing, piling on, ejection and roughing calls were all complete BS that directly contributed to the Riders scoring points. Take out those calls and this game is a blow out for the Stamps.
The CFL is always going to have bad calls because the refs just aren't very good at their jobs but when one franchise always gets a ton of beneficial calls go their way it is hard not to see that their is a league agenda. When that team also has the highest ratings on TV it becomes even more fishy as the league clearly benefits if that team has an inflated record and is pushed into more play-off games/Grey Cups.
Saskatchewan has definitely gotten some love from the officials this year (anyone else notice that they've had a receiver about half a yard offside CONSTANTLY all year long and it NEVER gets called?)
But Calgary bitching about calls is amusing. Dave Dickenson has had the officials and the command centre in his back pocket for years. This year...eh, not so much. Can't say I mind seeing a a little bit of even it up after years of them getting the Patriots treatment from the officials.
I still think the Riders end up winning the West. They got a huge break from schedule randomness, to the point that it's almost incomprehensible. Got Winnipeg without Harris twice/Nicholls all three times, getting Edmonton twice with Kilgore. Got Pipkin, got Evans in his first start, got Franklin twice when everyone else had to go against Bethel-Thompson, who is much better. Got Arbuckle in his first start (even though they still lost). They should probably still finish 13-5, so unless Calgary wins both against Winnipeg, Sask will still hang onto first place unless they blow an easy one against BC or Edmonton. Just a perfect storm of schedule luck for the Riders this year, who are good but not great IMO.
Hamilton and Montreal might be the two best teams in the CFL this year (Hamilton clearly #1). It's like the late 90's revisited.
