Absolutely..you can usually find one of Vallesi, Foxcroft or Bradbury when there is massive confusion among the officials. IMO, this all traces back to Glen Johnson. He should be fired from his position of head of officials if he can't see these three are incompetent as head officials and demote them to line judges at best.
There were at least 3 different occasions Friday, when Bradbury identified the wrong team on a penalty call. Vallesi did the same last night, and IMO is the worst in the league at judging roughing the passer (although Bradbury gave him a run for his money on Friday), and Foxcroft is just usually lost.
It's us vs the rest of the country
Bradbury is the worst by a long shot...this clown should be the offensive and defensive player of the week. He moved the ball better than the offenses on Friday with his flags for breathing within 5 yards of the passer. No rhyme or reason or proper discretion of interpreting this penalty and the CFL better address this in the off-season. These protecting the QB rules are getting a little ridiculous and turning the CFL into a touch football league...What next...steamboat counter before the defense can rush the QB. Does the CFL actually scout for the best officials or do they just hire people with names despite their incompetencies. Wonder why Foxcroft is a CFL, and loves his whistle?...his family invented the FOX 40 whistle. The best guy is Proux, Bradbury is so bad it makes Kim Murphy look like a hall of fame ref, which isn't saying much.
Maybe they got to put Higgins back in his role as head of officiating for the CFL because it's gotten worse since he got back into management.
