Well, for the record, I cut and paste one as a template for the other (yeah, lazy...) and missed the error... (Thanks for catching it,

).

Smith ran 2 times for 1 yard and 1 TD while Konkolongo had 1 tackle and 1 special teams tackle as their Saskatchewan Roughriders dropped their 3rd of the season to the British Columbia Lions in OT, 35-32.

Smith was 2 for 4 for 12 yards (long of 7) and ran twice for 15 yards (one for 14 yards and the other a 1 yard TD run) as his Saskatchewan Roughriders fell to 0-5 on the season losing to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats 31-21.

I don't follow CFL at all, how does it appear he is doing? Is he making noise? Is he gaining attention? Just looking at his numbers, it doesn't appear he's really tearing it up...On a crappy team...

He has bee nthe backup all year. In fact he was 3rd string but the starter went out on a season ending injury the first game. Last game the 2nd stringer went out in the second half and Brett came in. He didn't do much but didn't have a whole lot of chances from the little I saw of the game. They use him around the goal line sometimes. Not sure what the status of the 2nd stringer is after the game so maybe brett will get a chance to start next week.

In a press conference they said its a 50/50 chance that the 2nd stringer is out this week. That means according to the depth chart Smitty has a 50/50 chance of starting this week..

So basically if the starter can start he will, and if he can't Brett will but we won't know til game time?

I want nothing but success for former Pokes and Brett is no different. I really hope he gets his chances.

Yeah Beav exactly. That's what they made it sound like.
