The Edmonton Elks - CFL

I wonder if Seymour the Elk grows another point on his antlers with each Elks home loss.

Elks selling seats for $12.60 next game in honour of all the 1260 sports talk over the years

So league expansion related, I saw that there is also interest for an expansion team for Quebec city.

L.L rocks the bells baby! He looked and sounded awesome.

Fun game so far, but man Elks, fundamentals my friends.

fundamentals?

referring to the players or the [lack of an] offensive coordinator?

 

[kcantor]

as herman’s hermits once sang, “second verse, same as the first”…

macadoo needs to write a game plan and call plays that generate offence, and stop writing game plans and calling plays that are simply offensive.

Cornelius is not great, but there must have been 5-7 key dropped balls and marginal protection. Hard to do much without options or support. That said, they should have thrown in our backup for the 4th to change things up.

What I don't get is our choice of D with only 3 up front for nearly the entire game. Adams Jr. looked real good, but he also has all the time in the world.

Our secondary coverage was poor and our entire team looked confused at times; the body language and the player's eyes said it all.

Jones better be sweating.

that three man front held the lions to 9 points in the first half, 6 of them late in the first half and they only gave up one touchdown in the entire game.

total offence 426 yards for bc and 149 for the elks (i can’t find time of possession)…

this one was all on the [complete lack of] offence.

 

[IanO]

They were not able to finish, but racked up the yards.

It was the first time since Aug. 15, 1976, that the team (ELKS) failed to score any points against an opponent. “Any time you don’t score points in the CFL game, it’s certainly concerning,” said head coach Chris Jones.

Time to pull Warren Moon out of retirement.

 

[kcantor]

it’s a good thing they’re football champs - they wouldn’t get very far in a spelling bee…

 

[IanO]

A nice Sunday evening and by the looks of it... maybe 18,000?

The Edmonton Elks announced on June 26 that they have released quarterback Kai Locksley following the team’s loss to the Toronto Argonauts on June 25. Locksley played in the first three games of the season for the Elks, but was pulled after he fumbled on his first play in the game against the Argonauts.

I didn't see this but after that fumble, he wasn't standing with the team anymore and was standing off to where the players who aren't dressed stand during the game. Have a feeling it was more that reason why he was released.
