3rd just started. Your previous post confused me.

It's tough to cheer on the Stamps but we need the Hoovers to lose with Classic next week and Banjo Bowl the week after we could knock them out of 3rd in the West and be just shy of the Esquimauxs

Noticed my '4th' error, went back and edited it out - sorry for the confusion.

Best I can do is not cheer against them. LOL I'm working hard at remaining neutral in spite of the fact that I'd like to see Matt have a good game after the booing he got in the last one.

That darn Hoover D is on fire, pete.............though I find the Stump offense to be rather subdued today.

He didnt get booed though.

They were booing the refs.


Oh, I gather that is why he didn't seem all that bothered about the question in his pre-game interview.



Both these defenses are earning their salaries today. Well there you go.........that was a quick march downfield for the Stamps to put another 7 on the board ............and the lead for the first time in the game. A FG won't do it for the Bombers now.

The Lions will be tough tonight due to great coaching. Before the game Wally will gather the team and say things like, "ok, we gotta win tonight.. you know what you have to do.. lets go." Then he will stand with his arms folded on the sideline, chew the corner of his mouth and, viola, the Lions will be unstoppable. There just can't be an answer for it.

Found something out tonight. Devier Posey, the wideout who won a Grey Cup with the Argos last year, is now a Baltimore Raven. Well, for one more week. We'll see if he makes the cut-down.

Baltimore Ravens have had them since 1996.


If I understand correctly, their cheerleaders are shouters who don't dance but lift the girls. By contrast, the Saints male cheerleader is a dancer who makes the same moves as the girls do.

Largely true, but I'm not sure a lifter isn't a dancer. Kinda hard to do a lift without them.

Still, your point is well taken. Considering that cheerleaders are basically acrobats or basically dancers, there's no reason not to have men doing the same thing women do. That's kinda what they do on Broadway.

But not in Make Murka Great Agin, gol-dang it!

Riders leading by 2 points at end of half. Not as sharp as they were against Calgary and the Lions are making some good plays on both sides of the ball.

Kreskin, why doesn't Wally wear a head-set? Is he worried it will muss his hair? Or, he is not interested in what his coaching staff may have to say to him.

We don't have the edge we did in last week's game.....BC is playing solid ball....but for three dropped - on target - balls, the score would be in BC's favor.

Nice catches, fabulous returns but no TDs.

The only edge we have is extra oxygen going from 1880ft to 10ft above sea level.

Our offense sucks...the D can't seem to contain Travis...if the Lions were playing any better this game would be out of sight.....for the Riders
