I don't think anyone expected the punt so they didn't bother sending anyone back there to catch it. It was only 3rd down.

that makes sense but that formation is so weird. I wonder what position the guy that punted it plays? QB, a la Tom Brady?

what a crazy rule. why didn't the blue team have a guy back to catch the punt? is that a formation rule in the cfl or something?

In this case, they punted out of the shotgun formation. The players lined up as if it were a pass play and going for it on 3rd down (yay 3 downs as well).

also, slurpee, how popular is the CFL in canada?

Eh, not that popular. It has regional appeal, and certain pockets love it. Easy example, Hamilton has a big following, but go to Toronto (they're separated by nearly an hour) and nobody gives a shit.

I also once read that 50% of all merch sales for CFL stuff comes from Saskatchewan Roughriders sales. Kind of sums it up, really.

Yeah, so I became genuinely curious about CFL attendance, because I wanted to see if it was consistent with what I've heard and read about the Argonauts' problems recently...

...holy hell, that is terrible.

Oh, for the rest of the league, yes. I'd say every other team has mostly healthy attendance (especially out west), but in Toronto, they're the fifth team on the totem pole (and somehow might be threatened by our rugby team).

Saskatchewan is weird in general.

They also have no other form of major sports nearby (other than major-junior hockey, but that's everywhere in Canada). I'm willing to bet they draw raucous crowds for curling too.

49ers lost their last four games by a combined total of 11 points.
Lost to Seahawks 9-12
Lost to Rams 39-41
Lost to Cards 15-18 in OT
Lost to Colts 23-26 in OT

I'm going to pretend like this is some next-level undercover tank job. Ok, now on to watching David Price be annoying.
