Cheap but Effective

Perhaps some of you saw Sportscentre's glowing story about Milt Stegall's 138th career touchdown, a CFL record. Which is impressive, even if the touchdown itself was a bit cheap. Stegall's Blue Bombers where playing the Hamilton Tigercats, perennially one of the worst teams in the league, this year being no exception.

The touchdown came on the fourth straight pass to Stegall, who had not scored since the season opener of June 28th. Now, I understand that the Bombers were anxious to get the distraction of the touchdown record of their backs. But if they would have been playing a quality team there is no way they'd have been able to get four straight completions to the same guy. The official spin is that its a great touchdown and a great achievement, etc., I think the Tigercats defense should take that as a wake-up call.
