OT: CFL regular season thread

[puckhead]

Stamps win 30-24 over the Bombers...If BC wins, Calgary goes to Edmonton next week, but it BC loses, BC will travel to Calgary.

I'm hoping for a BC win, Edmonton doesn't scare me as much as the Lions.

that was closer than it needed to be, too
24-0 lead almost pissed away


hoping for good things tonight, Leo's could use the bye week
i like how they always schedule eastern teams for games as late as possible. 10pm start for Mtl's body clock

That was a good game. I thought for sure Winnipeg was going to come back and win that one.

how are you catching cfl games down there? and how are you liking our style of game?

just catching up on the lions game, so far mtl is moving the ball pretty easily on its first drive
edit: fortunately, so is bc!

 

[puckhead]

holy shit bc came to play.
never seen them take it to mtl like this before

Montreal, meet Mr. Woodshed

Montreal, meet Mr. Woodshed

through 3Q, offense = 377 to 80
amazing performance

I really hope for B.C to win the Cup at home this year, but I have a gut feeling Calgary will find a way to weasel their way in there.

I went to the game so I dont know the answer > did tsn show on the broadcast what the Als pulled during the pregame entrances?

they stopped at around the 45 yard line and stood right in the middle of the Lions cheerleaders ... the spot where the Lions were going to congregate after they were announced

it had the makings of a major BROU-HA-HA

... nice try Al's cant help but think this played a role in the Lions keeping all their first team guys in late in the game

That looked like the passing of the torch on Saturday night from one great CFL QB (Anthony Calvillo) to maybe the next great CFL QB (Travis Lulay).

/As a Stamps fan, pretty happy with what I've seen from Drew Tate so far as well...

BC Lions say "major football operations" announcement comes down @ 230pm. End of coaching for Wally Buono?

sounds like d coordinator Mike Benevides is the guy as Calgary just gave permission to Hamilton to talk to Dave Dickinson

I guess Huf is clearing the coaching ranks (Chris Jones to the Argos and now maybe Double D to the Tiger-Cats).

yeah Tate has some potential.

Calvillo also announced he will be back next year.

Riders trying to woo Kent Austin back as head coach...

Riders trying to woo Kent Austin back as head coach...

as coach of Cornell, his daughter gets free tuition there

riders will have to up any offer by 100k per year

 

[puckhead]

Joe Paopao update: name head coach at University of Waterloo.
good for Joe.

I briefly scanned the CFL free agent list, a lot of guys will probably be signed by their current teams, but there's quite a few impact players available...

/Stamps need to target the defensive line

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Khalif Mitchell has workouts scheduled with Miami and Minnesota in the next couple weeks ... huge blow for the Lions when he leaves

Ricky Ray to the Argos for Steven Jyles is the lead story on TSN - I'm not a big fan of Ray, but Jyles stinks. Nice trade for the Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrgos.

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Im happy Ricky Ray is out of the west ... Kavis Reed probably thinks he can reunite with Jyles and make something happen again ... wouldnt count Kerry Joseph out either

what does it mean for Henry Burris? Hamilton?
