Thanks for the Admission. But WTF?

It's been quite a week in Crazyland and it's not even close to being over yet.

Between the incredulous reasoning for dumping veteran captain Mike Keane, and the injury to Blue Bombers quarterback Buck Pierce that started out as one game and turned into "two-to-four weeks," (if Mike Kelly had kept a player out of post-game interviews as Paul LaPolice did with Pierce after last week's 28-7 loss in Hamilton — which is certainly the head coach's right — he would have been publicly eviscerated for "trying to control the message."), we've had the Canadian Football League admit that both its on-field officials and its replay officials "erred" on a play that ultimately cost the Bombers a football game.

Tom Higgins, the league’s director of officiating, admitted on Monday that the league’s "replay command centre" (love the pomposity of that name) officials in Toronto "erred" when they reviewed a Bomber challenge claiming that Ticats quarterback Kevin Glenn had indeed fumbled on a run around the left side in the  third-quarter.

“This is going to go down as an incorrect ruling, because we didn’t allow enough time for the fumble to be recovered,” Higgins said in a written statement. “It’s a shame, because that’s what we have replay for.”

A shame? More than a shame, it's a firing offence..
