The <em>Calgary Stampeders<\/em>\u00a0were trailing all through the game. The <em>BC Lions<\/em> led 32-21 with <em>just\u00a0three minutes left<\/em>.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5><strong>Then, the unthinkable happened. Calgary&#8217;s star quarterback\u00a0Bo Levi Mitchell hurt his shoulder and was replaced by a no-name back-up, Nick Arbuckle. Well, I thought, the game was over. The back-up would just run out the clock.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5><strong>Instead I witnessed a miracle. Arbuckle proceeded to complete nine passes in a row, and after an onside kick, scored two touchdowns and won the game!<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5><strong>This was men being men, a <\/strong><strong>battle<\/strong><strong>\u00a0of muscle, agility and wit. This is why I watch Canadian football because, despite naysayers, it is the only thing the Rothschilds haven&#8217;t fixed yet.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5><strong>Instant replays and challenges ensure that rulings on the field are accurate.
