Glencross is from Kindersley. Do I cheer for Calgary? No, I hate them. born in Kindersley maybe but he always said he was from Red Deer, plus he was an Oiler before he was a Flame so I don't know what that has to do with anything. Fact is there are a lot of gappers who love Eberle and the Oilers because of it. I understand when you say you're a penguins fan, tons of kids are because Crosby, but the Oilers have sucked for a long time it's puzzling when kids pick them up unless there's some other connection. With some, maybe because of their parents i.e., Gretzky, Messier, Coffey, Fuhr et al era Exactly. I follow my Dad. He started cheering for them when Gretzky joined.

Perhaps it is something personal? Not an injury?

You'll need Centre Ice or GameCentre live to see the non-national games. Pretty much the position my grandparents are in with the Canadiens. RDS games blacked out, so they need some kind of paid service to watch the regional games. Pretty shoddy service, IMO.

Wow, that's a big blow. At least they're playing Montreal though.

I just knew that was Sulsky behind the keyboard!

Riders

Ottawa and Hamilton are upcoming, so it's still possible.

No one here can remember, but welcome anyways. And don't mention the war. Which one? Probably the one between the Rider fans and the Bombers fans.

Welcome. You might be our first token Esks fan. Someone needs to drag Lyin' guy and Radio Ryan over and we might have the whole league represented. Zarquon is here!

Welcome!

well you are missing a game in there since it hasn't been played yet but I find it highly unlikely that those three teams wind up tied. Did Winnipeg already play BC twice? Thought the upcoming was the second. yeah go figure you totally forget the game where the Bombers kicked the Lions up and down the field. You expect me to memorize every game of the season? Just a mistake. why not? it's a small league, amd if you are going to go into head to heads you should get the facts. You can find every result on the cfl website. Yeah, I took a look.

Just a mistake. Seems like selective memory to me. Probably not intentional but selective all the same. It's not.

Yea the Riders and Lions would advance in that scenario, although your win/loss records are incorrect. If we can beat BC and tie them in the standings we need the Riders out of the picture. Ya, if the Riders won an extra game, Winnipeg would get 4th over BC.

Not per se, but I'm closely connected to the guys out in the fields. I help with making hay, vegetable harvest, yard work, etc. And also play pac man at the same time .

He also put the Bombers as his least hated team other than the Riders in the west. Pretty sure both posts you mentioned were directed at two trolls that were on riderfans, not about here.

well that all depends, see back in the day the internet wasn't as ubiquitous as it is now. He was probably viewing the Oiler forum on Windows 5.1 !

Oh yeah, and the person (mod) who taught people to find an existing topic, is 47. I'm sure he's been on the internet much longer than many people here.

I think either the Riders or Esks have to tank big time or have the Bombers beat Calgary at least once to make the playoffs, IMO.

If that happens: 1. Riders- 4-1 .800 2. BC Lions 2-3 .400 3. Bombers 2-4 .333 Riders beat Winnipeg thrice and BC once; lose to BC once. Lions beat Riders and Bombers; lose to Riders and Bombers. Bombers beat BC; lose to Riders thrice and BC once. Riders would be 3rd, Lions 4th, Bombers 5th. Bombers would be out. Edit: extra game added. Bombers would win the series against BC, but as the lions have a game in hand, Bombers would still be 5th.

The person who told me that was a moderator. And why the hell does this have anything to do with the fact that I cheer the Riders? ffs

Its a thread from a few months ago regarding a new $300M stadium that is currently under construction. Should I have started a new thread? yes On many forums, this one included, members are urged to find an existing topic to post in rather than starting a new one.

What's the three way tiebreaker? The team that gets fifth would be pretty choked. Pretty sure it's win percentage between the tied teams.
