Congrats SF on the win. I thought it was a great game. Coach O better get the penalties cleaned up if the Outlaws are going to get things going.

That was a great game. The Storm had a slow start, but came around. Certainly no home cookin' as was alluded to before. Both sides had their bad calls, with Billings getting the uptick I thought. All and all a good game, open to either right to the end. The killer was picks by Dixon. We'll meet again!

Very good game. Both sides did have their penalties, but the timing of the Outlaws penalties sunk them. Billings is really playing like crap this year and it is a tad concerning. I'm hoping this loss will bring them around. As for the officiating, it was as expected. But if you think Billings got the uptick, you are killing your credibility.

sioux falls had a few calls early to keep them in the game, but honestly, if roles were reversed in billings and sioux falls was up by a couple scores i could see the exact same thing happening.

This was not last years Outlaws team. The unity and the swagger they had last season is missing, if not long gone. We'll see them at least once more. Time will tell if they can re-group...
a BLZ moment, if you'll allow me
"See what happens when they have to start practice on time"
remember to tip your waitstaff

Bouncer is right. The Outlaws are lacking unity and swagger so far this season. However, I was happy to see that they gave Sioux Falls all they could handle despite not playing as well as they should be. Billings has a long way to go to get to where they were last year. I just hope it is sooner than later. And it better be before Sioux Falls comes to town or they will lose again.

We continue to shoot ourselves in the foot, repeatedly, until that foot is blown off. Then we start in on the other foot. And we were doing that against the dregs of the league before the Storm game. We have 3 weeks to think about it now. The next game at home against Colorado will say a lot. Congrats, Storm, on the win. We will attempt to be as hospitable when you come to town.

I give the uptick to the Outlaws because it is not every day a play is short of the first down, then the ref picks up the ball and moves an already generous spot over the line. I could not believe it. It did not matter in the end, but I did find it odd at best. When they pulled chains tight there was plenty of space, then presto! Right in front of me! (I am not trying to start a federal case here, just clarifying and bored.)

like that Really random flag on that 1st fumble? that was a fine piece of officiating wait for the ball to be in 5 seconds before throwing a random flag. lol.

Did you guys think Dixon was over the line of scrimmage on his touchdown pass?

It's not a backpedal. Number 10 looks like he has his hand in Riggs' pocket. I'd jump, too...

Did you guys think Dixon was over the line of scrimmage on his touchdown pass? being at midfield, and having not watched the television coverage yet I'd say it appeared that way to me, however I had a poor angle being behind the play.
