    If you take a time count violation on third down in the final three minutes of a half, you are assessed a ten yard penalty. The Argos lost a game that way back in '09 when Justin Medlock seemingly nailed a 47 yard FG to win a game over Winnipeg. However, the officials said that the Argos did not get the snap off in time and the team was assessed a 10 yard penalty and Medlock had to try again from the 57. He hit the upright, the Argos lost and never recovered that season.

    I was actually watching the play clock on that kick. Argos did a good job of snapping the ball with 1 second on the play clock. Kudos to Trevor Harris for keeping his cool and making sure of that.

    There's a good chance Foxcroft was distracted watching a pigeon flying at the top of the dome.

Hamilton were out of timeouts, and they should have been charged a time count violation. You can't just stop the play clock to allow for a substitution at that point. I've said it before, but he is the absolute worst ref in the history of the game.

    I think his father must have some pull as to why he is still employed. For those that don't know, his father invented the Fox40 whistle, and has worked with both the CFL and NFL for years. Oh..and did I mention they are from Hamilton?
    I went back and watched those final few seconds again and I agree, AV, that it is incomprehensible as to why Foxcroft stopped the play clock. There was no injured player on the field and the Ticats were about to run an offensive play. It simply makes no sense.

    Worth mentioning that Slaton won MOP honors for the week and Yurichuk won Canadian honors.
