A choke job means they would have quit. I saw none of that.

That one really hurts. Thought we were looking at an epic Grey Cup comeback win.

Ouch.

My Participaction badges were better-mounted than the MVP and MVC plaques.

I'm so ####ing sick of my useless sports teams.

I waste so much time and energy on this crap and get endless heartbreak and bitter disappointment over and over again. I wish I'd grown up oblivious to this crap. Even when my team is the odds on favourite they can't get the job done when they should.
Sports can break your heart. I swear, it does feel like the lows stick with you more than the highs.

They've been doing the cheap looking plaques for a while. I don't know why they can't afford a nice little trophy.

This was about as best a CFL game you could watch except for the outcome.

Burris totally was in control this game and it was well played by both teams. Gotta congratulate the Redbacks.

Very entertaining game and both teams played extremely well.

The idea that a bunch of players have to watch their coach get awarded from the audience is so dumb.

Bo Levi and the offence fought back when they were down.

The defence got them the ball back and gave them a chance to win.

If they never got it to overtime I'd be hugely disappointed. Instead, they never quit, and made it one of the best Grey Cup games in history.

PS. Kudos to Burris with the first half of a lifetime, and now another GC ring and GC MVP. Happy for Redblacks fans. Ottawa was the better team tonight

Agreed. If I had to lose to anyone it would be Burris. He had a great game.

MVP and Top Canadian left off the field 2nd down on the 2.
3rd down MVP and Top Canadian left off the field. Dickenson undid everything that was accomplished.
Then Dickenson has his team Defer first possession did he even pay attention to how bad the D played in this championship game. Really bizarre and they the call is go for end zone in double coverage. The whole strategy of OT in this format is get the first down. The coaching sucked.

Should have pounded the ball 3 times for the win...OT is a coin flip. They odds of punching that in were way better. And honestly put it in the hands of your best players.

Lynch knows how Messem feels. What a jerk move in a championship game on the 2 by a coach.
This will haunt Dickenson and he robbed his players of a ring with that playcall. Twice.
If Messem is a FA I bet he leaves.

Guy should have caught the ball in the end zone, setting up a shot at the win...nothing wrong with that call it worked other than the drop

Well my thoughts were to punch it and go for the win rather than OT. I don't have enough CFL experience to make that call. The fact is with the shocker comeback and short kick recovery all the momentum was with the Stamps. However, Burris was deadly... man on a mission.

.....and if they failed to pound in the winning TD, you and those who thanked your post would be up in arms about not kicking the FG to tie the game. Stamps can't win with you guys as fans
