Foley has had a change of heart. He never signed the contract with the Lions, and he has decided to go with the Argos.

Saskatchewan Roughriders 43....Calgary Stampeders 37

http://scoreboards.canoe.ca/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=canoe&page=CFL/scores/final/W872.htm

Best game in a long time! I counted five lead changes.

With the score tied 37-37 on the last play of regulation, the Riders could have gone for a 35-yard field goal, but instead elected to go for the 48-yard punt single to win the game. Eddie Johnson had been kicking great punts all game, but when it really mattered he couldn't get it done, and the Stamps ran it back out of the end zone to save the game.

The Riders had the ball first in OT, and Wes Cates scored a TD. The Riders had no answer to the Stamps offense the whole game, but when it mattered they stopped them at the 3 yard line.

Hamilton Tiger-Cats 36....British Columbia Lions 31

Good game with a crazy fourth quarter. BC led 28-16 after three, but self-destructed with five turnovers in the fourth. In that one quarter, Casey Printers threw two INTs and fumbled twice.

Toronto Argonauts 17....Winnipeg Blue Bombers 13

Pretty boring for most of the first three quarters, but a good fourth quarter.

Lots of punts. Renaud punted 12 times, Boreham 11 times.

Montreal Alouettes 31....Edmonton Eskimos 14

http://64.246.64.33/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4343185

Anthony Calvillo is back. The Als jumped off to an early 26-0 lead, and coasted the rest of the way.

Montreal Alouettes 44....Winnipeg Blue Bombers 40

http://scoreboards.c.../final/W876.htm

The Als took a quick 10-0 lead, and it looked like the game would be a blow out. But the Bombers got their act together and led for much of the game.

Unfortunately, in the fourth quarter a bad call led to an Als TD, and another bad call awarded the Als the game winning TD. So the game was marred by the officiating.

Saskatchewan Roughriders 32....Hamilton Tiger-Cats 25

http://scoreboards.c.../final/W877.htm

The Ticats took a 15-0 lead, but the Riders fought back. There were four lead changes.

The Ticats had a chance to tie it in the last minute. They marched the ball downfield, but on the last play of the game the Riders intercepted the ball in the end zone.

British Columbia Lions 29....Calgary Stampeders 10

http://64.246.64.33/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4344682

For the first time that I can remember, both starting quarterbacks were benched for poor play.

Paul McCallum hit six FGs. The Stampeders scored a TD with 12 seconds to go to make the score more respectable.

Tomorrow's Argos-Eskimos game in Moncton will be the first regular season game ever played in Atlantic Canada. It will also be the first regular season game ever played at a neutral site.

Edmonton Eskimos 24....Toronto Argonauts 6

It was a close game for three quarters (10-6 after three), but the Eskimos blew them away in the fourth.

The league has fined Paul LaPolice and three players for postgame criticism of the officials. This article fails to mention the offsides call that wasn't made on the winning TD play.

Cleo Lemon suffered a concussion last week, so the Argos will try to win with Dalton Bell.
