Third Down Gamble

Clear and obvious?

Why did the booth not get the fumble call correct in Hamilton?  Does the term "immediate recovery" need to be redefined?  Edmonton Elks run very fast for their first win in 2024.  Lion's quarterback Vernon Adams is injured, what will that mean for BC?   Suspensions:  big days ahead for Alouettes' Shawn Lemon and Argonauts' Chad Kelly.  Can the Elks go on a roll with Tre Ford guiding the offence?  Special Guest host is Andrew Hoskins (the Turf District Podcast).  (CFL on CBC theme music used with written permission; podcast (#250) recorded August 5 and August 6, 2024).

Elevation, it matters.

Edmonton Elks remain winless, is it Tre Ford's turn to start at quarterback?  Close calls in Toronto, did the booth get them correct upon review?  Blue Bombers gamble with a minute left and in field goal range, was Mike O'Shea overthinking the situation?  BC travels to Winnipeg in a massive game for both teams, can Calgary bounce back versus Toronto. (CFL on CBC theme music used with written permission; podcast recorded July 30, 2024).

Lesson wasn't learned.

Did Adam Bighill cross the line with his hit on Shea Patterson?  McLeod Bethel-Thompson delivers more criticism of scheduling.   Wally Buono would like to see a return of expansion by the CFL into the United States.  Why is hair-pulling legal?  (CFL on CBC theme music used with written permission; podcast recorded July 23, 2024).

Quick Kicks: how do you lead?

Special Guest Andrew Hoskins (the Turf District Podcast) joins to discuss the firing of Edmonton Elks General Manager (GM) and Head Coach (HC) Chris Jones, the timing of this change, the implications on the teams' Operatons Cap, how this move may influence potential ownerships suitors, and what it means for interim GM Geroy Simon and interim HC Jarious Jackson and the team's prospects for the remainder of this 2024 season (podcast recorded July 17, 2024).

Underdogs for the first time.

For the first time in his CFL career, Chris Jones is fired, Jarious Jackson becomes interim Head Coach of the Elks. Could Nathan Rourke return to the CFL this season? Do fines do enough for player safety?  Toronto upsets unbeaten Montreal, Calgary scores 37 and loses, Ottawa shocks Edmonton in an unbelievable series of plays starting with just :08 seconds on the clock; Edmonton, for the first time for any team in CFL history, loses three straight on a last play field goal.
