Great game guys, remember one game doesn't make a season. If we come out flat next week we could be 1-2. I know none of you want that.(Eno-Keno)
Team Orange
Some time scheduling gets the best of a team. It would have been tough for any team to play back to back games in week one. You guys played hard. You just have to learn to keep it together. If you guys have each others backs you will be fine. If you start pointing fingers it’s going to be a long season.
Amer
Not to take anything away from any of the other guys on Orange, but you were a class act last night in both games.
Joey K
Think about what worked last night and use it more often. You have a good squad with a lot of talent. All the short stuff was working. Throw in some more run plays and your golden. You showed too much of the same D most of the game. You know how to mix it up so do it.
Tony
You did it boy!
Bob
Great arm and all around game bro!
Joey J
What a surprise you won again.
Karl
Way to step up in your coach’s unexpected absence.

| Thanks AT, but I think it was more your game plan working than mine not working (but mine was terrible).
Green and you guys played great, you guys wanted it more and I think the Sahara I fed my team before the game hurt a little too.
But there is one thing I would like to ask of you, and in no way am I blaming any of our performance yesterday on the refs, but please try to get the rules clarified. Yesterday Dylan came out of his stance in a blocking motion and Fadi reacted and they said it was offsides on us b/c Dylan was "in motion," that would make it so that no lineman ever committed a false start. And I specifically remember that last year when the ball his the ceiling it was a dead ball, you could not catch it. And the call I understood the least was the ref saying that Gabe could not jar the ball out of a players hands when the player was trying to make a reception, it left me wondering how a DB was supposed to break up a pass. Again, we were terrible and I am not making excuses, but for the sake of the league and any confusion and arguments down the line, could we please get this issues clarified.

Joey J and I spoke this morning. After we talk to Francis and find out what is acceptable at OU we will post the rules. I have to take the blame for the mix up. Joey J and I talked about the rule changes but I didn't take them to Francis to let the officials know.
Again my bad, it will be straightened out this week.

| Anthony and I already spoke about the rules. We agree that there needs to be some clarifications.
Things to review:
Full blocking (as opposed to open handed)
Gabe's play (knocking the ball away from a reciever)
Motion (I didn't see that Dylan play)
Norm's ejection- per CFL rules...
FIGHTING AND UNSPORTSMANLIKE CONDUCT
UNSPORTSMANLIKE CONDUCT - Fighting and unsportsmanlike conduct will not be tolerated. A player ejected for any reason will be suspended for the following game. THROWING ROCKS IS PROHIBITED. Verbal abuse also will not be tolerated. Such abuse when deemed appropriate will be grounds for game ejection and possible league suspension. Penalty: 10 yards and automatic 1st down
Subject to appeal hearing
However, last night we were not really playing by CFL rules, we were playing with Francis' rules. So we will check with him and then determine how we want to handle it going forward.
Ball off the ceiling- the rule from now on will be that you CAN play the ball off the roof of the dome. I honestly don't remember a throw going off the roof last year. I remember numerous kicks, but never a throw. As far as punts- if it hits the roof, you can catch it only before it hits the turf. Once it hits the turf, its dead.

| I remember One of Amers passes hit the roof as well and it was called a dead ball. But i guess in a league when lineman can motion, the rules are made as we play
