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.

Still having a chuckle about the reactions to that - O'Shea is gonna O'Shea

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

I first became a die hard fan in the early 90s - still not used to having a team that gets it done.

[CodyT]

A lot of talk about how Montreal has won 7 In a row...

Swept under the rug is that we have won 5 in a row and played our best football in that stretch. I like blue n gold today.

 

See you all on the other side

Same. It’s still surreal to me when they dominate a game. 

[Super Duper Negatron]

If Zach and the offence are on today we win. I think it's that simple.

Born in 1980. I grew up thinking we'd always be good. Boy was I in for some trouble 😂

Born in 87. I grew up thinking I’d missed them being good.
I always half believed my Dad when he joked he’d sold his soul for the 84 Grey Cup.

I already have butterflies.

Getting ready to hop in the car and drive down the QEW! First time back in Canada in over a year and it’ll be worth it. I wasn’t the only Bomber fan on the flight up either!!

 

GO BLUE! DEFEND #FORT HEW!

It is. If we play our game, nobody beats us.

[HardCoreBlue]

Need to see palms up, shoulder twirl, slight limp Faj all day please.

[GCJenks]

Game day breakfast in, need to finish driving around for our errands and then we’ll get in to the serious eating and game day stuff. 
 

Bombers play clean and the Larks have no chance. I see them getting 3 on their opening drive and not inside the 50 for the rest of the game. 

[rebusrankin]

I think we need 21 points. Not sure I see the Al's hitting that. Play D like we can, clean game on offense.

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

When are you not in the gym is the question?  Go Blue!

[Booch]

Give up no defensive touchdowns....we win handily....even if we give up 1 I see us winning as I can't see the Als offence putting up 2 TDS of their own....

And still sense a Grant return TD today to help us along

Cooch!!! Fun fact, he was my first boss! He's at his 50th grey cup this year!! What a legend

[JCon]

When did everyone win THEIR Grey Cup this year:

Week 3 - BC Lions win their Grey Cup defeating the mighty Bombers in Winnipeg. Pretty much when they peaked. 

Week 6 - Ottawa RedBlacks win their Grey Cup, defeating the mighty Bombers at home. Don't call it a Crum-back. 

Week 9 - Calgary Stampeders win their Grey Cup defeating the defending Grey Cup champions, Toronto Argonauts. 

Week 12 - Edmonton Elks win their Grey Cup defeating the Ottawa RedBlacks at home for their first home victory of the season and their first home game in 22 tries. 

Week 14 - Saskatchewan Roughriders win their Grey Cup defeating their arch-rivals, the mighty Blue Bombers at home in the Labour Day Classic. 

Week 15 - Toronto Argonauts win their Grey Cup defeating the Montreal Allouettes, thus securing the East Division. So many victory laps, but nothing else to show for it. 

Week 15 - Hamilton Ticats win their Grey Cup defeating the mighty Bombers in Hamilton. Not many top quality wins to choose from but this one they earned. 

East Final - Montreal Allouettes win their Grey Cup shocking the Toronto Argonauts on the road. An upset that  no one is upset about. 

Grey Cup - Today... today is our Grey Cup.!The Winnipeg Blue Bombers attempt to win their Grey Cup, their 3rd in 4 years.

Yeah that would be an awful thing eh?...He's just not a winner...or leader, and to be quite frank....somewhat of a real ****** nozzle....he just a woah is me whiner....the doubters...the haters....the injury issue...shut up already and be a pro

Also Maas winning would irk me...He's not a good coach in my opinion....and I see where the Faj gets some of his stupidity from

[BaconNBigBlue]

It's more nowadays we expect it or at the very least know for the most part we are never out of it of a game than in previous lean years where losing by just a little was a win.

Much better feeling.

I have a lot of nervous energy right now. 

My son is in a batting cage right now and I'm so jealous watching him. I wish I could crush some balls and release the tension.

Oh gawd him strutting around like he da man blithering on about haters and doubters knowing he had the least part in getting the W would be nauseating.

DO NOT let them hang around. Put the foot on their throat early and often so we see in the eyes of CF teammates wanting to take CF behind the woodshed and take care of business.
