  1. Current forecast calls for Sunny and 17 during the day. Obviously a fair bit chillier by kickoff but still decent football weather for this time of year. Would be a great start to the turkey weekend to lock up that West Final...
  2. Not sure if this belongs here, the TV thread or Movies thread, but .... Go watch the new Tragically Hip doc on Prime when you get a chance. Really well done.
  3. You know who would be the perfect host but was canned a little while back? Cory Woron. I loved Randorf (my favourite CFL Panel Host ever) and Duthie was okay, except he ALWAYS wanted to turn everything into a "bit"... He was always looking for the next great comedy piece. They finally let him run wild with that in their hockey coverage, and it was..... A lot.
  4. Can't seem to edit this on my phone... But that's the wrong tweet. That's the right one...
  5. I respect the opinions expressed here... especially Voodoo... Which has some knowledge behind it. I'll say this, with my limited media production background, I believe in having the host be the straight man (or woman) always. Let the "characters" get the laughs... The host should just set them up for success. The other thing, and I believe this above all else, you have to just be yourself. If you try being something you're not (funny when you're not a funny person...) it shows and it is painful to watch. I feel this with Milt and Barker a lot when they're going way over the top... It's cringey at times. As for Laura vs Kate.... It's a matter of taste. They're both pros and good broadcasters. I personally find Kate to be a little over the top and too big of a personality for the host role, but that's just my personal taste.
  6. I feel like the "Milligan Is MOP!" **** is a smokescreen to ensure he gets MODP, which again is a stretch to defend, when all of the Bombers D secondary has been so much better. But because of this buzz, they'll say "well we have to give him SOMETHING..."
  7. Bah... I knew that. There was a Grey Cup but the CFL didn't merge to interleague until sometime in the 50s.
  8. Sorry - since 1945....
  9. I believe I read that it's the first time ever that Alberta has been shut out of the CFL playoffs. As for Milligan, even MODP is a stretch... MOP is ludicrous.
  10. LOLks indeed... So bad.
  11. Jeeze I really thought the receiver got his hands underneath that ENOUGH to be ruled a catch...
  12. Edmonton defense is just a steaming pile of garbage. What a shame.
  13. Suitor just out and out rooting for them on that last drive before the half. It's really incredible sometimes.
  14. Both these teams are ****... But who's going to be less **** tonight?
  15. "It's good for the league to have the riders fans engaged" - things I read on the internet....
  16. Well, we bought our playoff tickets today. Carol was wonderful as always. Whether w semi final or a final, we shall be there... Next up, let's get a flight booked tonight. Can't wait for another awesome weekend at home!
  17. He's been very good about a season and a half... Last season he got better with each rep and this year continued it IMO.
  18. I think my position on whether or not we're hosting a Semi Final or Final is being wildly misconstrued....... but either way, let's root root root for the home team tonight and officially be hosting the West Division Final on the second weekend of November! I am ready to book a flight this evening and start planning a party!
  19. Nobody's complaining about hosting a playoff game.......... I'm super confused right now.
  20. Not quite. Need a Riders loss tonight. Go LOLks Go!
  21. Hot take: Wilson has been better at running the wedges than Streveler was at any point this year.
