Grey Cup Game Day Thread. Let's Go!!

[SpeedFlex27]

Well, 2;45 am on Sunday & no one has started the Grey Cup Game Day Thread so it might as well be me. Let's Go Bombers. Lucky #13.

Feeling a tad nervous about later today but I think we'll come through. I don't want to even make Cody Fajardo jokes as we all know this is a winner takes all one game championship so anything (good or bad) can happen. We all saw what happened last week & what occurred in 2001 so we'll have to play our best. If we play our game, we'll win. Not be overconfident or cocky. We're the better team so just take care of business & then we'll be Grey Cup champions.

Feeling good....early morning gym session right now...back day....whenever it's back day...it's a good day...37-11 today..

Just need the DLine to go 2019 on CoFaj. 

Shellshock him from the first snap.

I’m fully expecting a game like 2019 where you can tell after the first minute that there’s no way we are losing

I get that feeling too. Let's hope we're celebrating in 12 hours. 

[Booch]

Not to jinx things...but I feel the same...a true statement game 

[JohnnyAbonny]

Alright @SpeedFlex27 your 1972 WF is my 2000 EF. 
Time for some 23 year old revenge on that shithead Ed Phillion 

[BBlink]

In 2019 I watched the game in a nervous and quieter optimism. Got loud when good things happened (obviously) and then in the second half I didn't celebrate until there was almost no time on the clock. Actually, I think I was just in disbelief, like it wasn't real.

I can see this year going much the same way.

Schoen is gonna play today...and we gonna confuse the Als defence with our scheme

I have a feeling he plays too

[rebusrankin]

In my head and when I examine the matchup on paper, I see a solid Bomber win. I am still worried though since I am a long time Bomber fan. Hoping we see Winnipeg blow Montreal out.

Lark, nice lark
Lark, I will pluck you
I will pluck your head
And your head
Lark
 

time to pluck these birds up!

First drink of the day - a Baileys on ice. 8:54 a.m.

32-10 Good guys. Montreal gets a gimme TD with 30 seconds left in the game.

 

Wait I mean pity TD

This is EXACTLY how I watched it in 2019...

Hopefully the Bombers win the coin toss. Looks like its going to be windy.

We will defer go against the wind and kick off, it's the Bomber way

[SectionKBlackout]

Game will be won or lost in the trenches, if the Bombers O line handles the Als D line it's game over, Brady will run them over and ZC will pick them apart

Yeah, last week the Lions won the toss and they elected to receive to start the game.

Bombers decided to kick off for the second half so they would have the ball in the 4th. OShea said the wind made a 10 yard difference for kicks.

Exactly. We have a wealth of skill players. If the big boys play their game, #forthew

No “ifs”. I am supremely confident in the Blue and Gold today.

Did we even return a kickoff last week?  Not according to the CFL game tracker.

Well I don’t drink anymore, but I got into a nice hybrid apricot strain at about 9am.
