    Jamill Smith's rouge-avoiding kickout was a crazy only-in-the-CFL ending to Sunday's

    Political correctness ( or cancel culture as it is called today) is a doctrine fostered by a delusional ,illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by MSM which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    What, exactly. is a "rouge-avoiding kickout?" Is that some sort of gay reference? Does he wear lipstick with his rouge? Should we cover the children's eyes so they don't witness this debauchery?

    In Canadian football, a single (single point, or rouge), scoring one point, is awarded when the ball is kicked into the end zone by any legal means, other than a successful field goal, and the receiving team does not return, or kick, the ball out of its end zone. It is also a single if the kick travels through the end zone or goes out of bounds in the end zone without being touched, except on a kickoff. After conceding a single, the receiving team is awarded possession of the ball at the 35-yard line of its own end of the field.
    Singles are not awarded in the following situations:
    •if a ball is downed in the end zone after being intercepted in the end zone
    •if a ball is fumbled outside the end zone
    •if the kicked ball hits the goalposts (since the 1970s; before then it was a live ball)
    •when a kickoff goes into the end zone and then out of bounds without being touched
    In all these cases the defending team is awarded possession of the ball at the 25-yard line.

    the CFL's overtime rules mean that each team gets at least one possession. In the first overtime period, Ottawa quarterback Henry Burris' deep pass was intercepted, leaving the Roughriders just needing a single point on their own possession to take the win. They didn't get too far on their first two downs, which meant that Milo was sent out to attempt a field goal on third down, but even most missed field goals would have travelled through the end zone and given Saskatchewan a game-winning rouge. Ottawa anticipated that and sent Smith to the back of the end zone, though, and when Milo missed, Smith made one of the craziest plays seen in Canadian football in a long while. He leapt to snare the missed field goal, somehow barely keeping his feet inbounds. and then punted it clear of the end zone before the Roughriders' cover team could tackle him. Saskatchewan wasn't able to get it back to the end zone, meaning that the game stayed tied and headed to a second overtime sequence. Of course, Saskatchewan won there, but that shouldn't take away from one of the best CFL endings involving a rouge since 2010 or 2011.
