Interesting CFL changes

[El Paso Eagle]

First.  Teams can have 2 QB's in the game at the same time as long as one is lined up lined up as an RB.

Second. The head of officials has told teams that if their quarterback is going to do the hook slide they need to do it early and if they wait till the last second to drop down they will not be getting the calls

This isn't even really a Mason Fine update, so maybe this shouldn't be in Mean Green football?

Why do we park on a driveway but drive on a parkway?

Why does 7-11, that is open 24 hours a day, have locks on their doors?

Blazing Saddles, All in the Family and The Jefferson’s. Would any of these be made today?

Why is the definition of "vague" so specific?

I’m thinking following Mason Fine’s career at this point is helped by understanding the CFL game including the recent rule changes. The change that seems to have the attention of the coaches and players is moving the field hash marks closer together. With the field being 55 yards wide, moving the hash marks closer together creates more room for the offence on the short-side of the field and brings the wide-side receiver closer to the QB which should result in more scoring. Many may know this but in case it’s helpful, CFL rules generally lean heavily to the offence, e.g. size of the field, large end zones, defence lines up one yard off the line of scrimmage, some receivers can take a running start, and the latest rule changes are examples of this. Where many great QBs struggle adjusting to the cfl, Mason’s success in part has been learning the cfl game.

Sorry I lied! A cfl field is 65 yards wide. FYI, the length of the field is 110 yards and the end zones are 20 yards deep.
