Beerfish Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 There is a contest for each game up here in the CFL put on by a large grocery chain where a fan is chosen at the start of the game, if one kick off is returned for a td they get a $25,000 tv package. If a second kick off is returned for a td they get 1 million dollars. Well it happened last night, except with the return guy in the clear going for the 2nd td a team mate bumped a defender in the back about 15 yards back up field. Penalty flag goes down, no td, no 1 million dollars. Most people agree that the call was totally awful and the epitome of ticky tacky. http://www.cbc.ca/sports/football/cfl/cfl-karen-kuldys-million-dollar-prize-1.4204710 Story and video above.

Gas2No99 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 WHAT A HORRIBLE CALL!!! The defender literally threw himself in front of #84 and took out his legs and #84 is penalized?!!?!?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TuscanyTile2 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Is there any way to watch it free? When are the games on? I'm a CFL newbie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy2020 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 I thought this was going to say they bought a luxury box to watch Jets games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hokiejetfan92 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Those refs work for the CFL, they probably needed that call to stay afloat for the fiscal year. A 1 million dollar give away? Nobody does that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
