Down here in Calgary not a drop of rain. The temp hit 32 today & sun beating down. A cold front went thru 90 minutes ago & the winds have gusted to 80 kph. Temp has dropped 15 degrees to 17. It wouldn't have been much fun on the midway at the Calgary Stampede this evening.

I wonder if they'll cast someone new for Checkov??? It's been a few years since the last film where a new actor could fit in.

Setting up to be an interesting fourth quarter 15-12 Esks.

I know. Damned annoying. Think they'd have these problems if it wasn't a monopoly? Don't think so.

Seriously???? Now it's a rain excuse?

Stupid frigging TSN & their glitches... What a Mickey Mouse network.

SJ Green just keeps defying the aging process. Sherrit ruptured his achilles tendon last season. Uh oh.

Kevin Eiben, the man who broke Kevin Glenn's arm in the 2007 Eastern Final & cost us a Grey Cup.

No, I mean the rain.

How Ludacris is this?

Nice to see Yelle break that play up because if that is all it takes for the Esks to fool the Argos D then the quality of play in the CFL would be at an all time low.

Maas is behaving himself.... No Hervey... If Maas acted up Sunderland would come down on him hard.

That was a damned well executed PA pass. Reilly totally faked out the defense.

My wife who is really a fan makes the observation why would Franklin throw into triple coverage? Great question.

Miss Bond on the Bombers. But glad he's out of that circus in Saskatchewan where every star OL signed from every other team plays like **** & is cut.

Franklin does look sharp. Reilly just throws deep while Franklin is spreading the ball around quite nicely.

With doubleheaders & travel connections with a 162 game schedule per team I think that it's not feasible.

Wrong thread. Deleted.

They'd start at 1 am if they had to. Not the smartest way of doing things but that's what the CFL does.

Whoa, did Matt Dunigan ever expose Jonathan Jennings for the sad excuse of a veteran CFL qb that he is on the pre game show. He showed how he only reads half the field. Throws to the one receiver he locks down on one side of the field while guys are wide open on the other side he never looks at. Dunigan made no excuses for Jennings except to say he is playing badly & he isn't good enough. I'm sure Suitor though will continue to make excuses for the guy whenever he gets the chance. Props to Dunigan for being honest & respecting fans by telling it like it is about Jennings. A big raspberry to Suitor for making excuses about Jennings constantly & treating fans like we are stupid.

Just a heads up.., bad weather is forecast this evening up in Edmonton. Severe thunderstorms, hail & perhaps tornadoes.

Living here in Calgary, I can honestly say that in the past two years the Stamps have lost thousands of fans because of what happened vs Ottawa & Toronto. The local sports media here seems a lot less interested in the team as well. If the Stamps get back to the Grey Cup with a 16-2 record (say) & lose to a clearly inferior team, the results would be disastrous on their eroding fanbase. I don't know how they come back from that. The fanbase would demand blood. Which would be the beginning of the end, I'd say. I know it may sound strange but 15-3 or 16-2 regular season records mean nothing to football fans here. Winning the very last game of the year does.

Buckley was never that good. I don't know what Dickenson & Hufnagel saw in him. He had 1good game last year in the Stamps 60-1 shellacking of the Ti Cats at McMahon Stadium. A high school team could have beaten the Cats that day.

They may be the most arrogant team in the CFL in thinking that other teams should just lay down for them. In big games the other teams won't. They can't handle adversity, panic & almost always choke. They could go 18-0 & face a 8-10 team in the Grey Cup & I'd pick the 8-10 team to win.
