Ottawa RedBlacks quarterback Henry Burris went into the locker room at halftime with a lead Saturday night against the Edmonton Eskimos, but you'd never know it based on his sour mood.
After he was asked a seemingly innocent question about the emotional state of his team by TSN during his halftime interview, Burris - who has struggled so far this season - went in a different direction, blasting his critics and passionately telling them to "shove it" before storming off.
Burris went into the break with 182 yards and a touchdown on 12-of-18 passing. His RedBlacks held a 10-6 lead at the half.
