Yea, can't wait. What a game last year for the Grey Cup with the Argonauts and the Lions.

I'm a Hamilton fan myself.

Montreal Alouettes to mop the floors with every team in the CFL again this season, cept this time, the Grey Cup is ours.

Mike Pringle retired though. He was a damn good one. :y:

are the AL's going with the Lapoint as the RB this year? and Toronto is a pretty scary team since they have unlimited money appearently.

I dont know who the Als are planning on for their running game. I do not think Lapointe can cut it alone.

If he's the back, once again the passing game will be our featured attack style.

I live in Ottawa and this is just typical. A representative of the team left a message asking me if I am going to renew my season tickets yesterday and I am pretty sure I am going to decline. I want Paopao gone and a new field goal kicker.

I was at the Grey Cup last year and it was excellent. Sat next to some Bomber fans which was cool as I was a Bomber fan before moving to the Capital.

I see Montreal vs. BC in this years Grey Cup.

yeah it's kinda unfortunate that Ottawa doesn't have good ownership in place out there. Not that Winnipeg is in much better shape but aslong as we get in the playoff's this year ill be happy. I wouldn't be surprised to see Sask do good this year, even without burris, they still have Greene so who knows.

I must admit I hate the Argos, but I love Pinball so I was happy for him to win the Grey Cup as a coach. They should have a great team again this year. Moving to YU will be good for them. When I lived in T.O I used to go to games at the Skydome and it was horrible. This was in 1995 before Flutie so it was averaging about 15K a game. It just is not a good atmosphere for football.

Morcheeba, any news on the new football stadium they were talking about in the Peg? Sounds like a great idea, but a very costly one.

The Riders are my sleeper pick for the West. Hopefully they can put their destruction in the playoffs past them. I just have a feeling that Printers will show everyone why he should have been in the Grey Cup last year. Call it a hunch....

yeah the Argo's are a good team again, but when you have more money to spend in one year than Winnipeg,Regina and Ottawa combined there's not much people can do without the salary cap being a total joke.

The Stadium is still being looked into, it's not actually as costly as people thought though due to canad inn's (the company who owns the stadium now) is a rich bastard and basically wants to buy the bombers but they're not for sale. anyway if the Government lets him put in his hotel and casino there he's basically gonna pay for the whole thing minus something like 20% which is suppose to come from the government. so who knows. I hope it does happen though because it is suppose to be really nice.

I dunno....im not completely sold on the riders yet although if they did make it to the Grey Cup i wouldn't be completely surprised.

it's not like they're a horrible team, I think it's better if they lose Burris to the stamps, gives them more money to resign a few people they could use.

It's really hard to count any team out as it's not like the best team in the league during the regular season wins the Grey Cup or plays for it either. I mean the Als have been arguably the best team for the last 6-7 years now and only won the Grey Cup once.
