TSN’s #LiveMic games this season have picked up some interesting, odd and hilarious play calls and player interactions this season.
That trend continued Sunday night, as the microphones picked up Calgary Stampeders head coach Dave Dickenson taunting Saskatchewan Roughriders kicker Brett Lauther.

“Hey Lauther, you’re gonna miss,” shouted the Stamps head coach, before the mic was switched off.
Lauther — one of the league’s top kickers at 92.6 per cent this season — drilled the 42-yard kick, then had some words and a look for the Calgary bench as he trotted off the field.
The two squads don’t meet again until Week 19, when the Riders will visit Calgary on Oct. 20, but you can bet the animosity between two of the most controversial teams in the West Division will continue to build until then.
