I so hope the Als embarrass Rider Nation and slaps the CFL in the face by pwning the Riders on Sunday. This Riders favouritism is so elementary. How can a pro league run like this, no matter how low on the scale it may be?

On the flip side, I really don't want to see yet another Grey Cup go to Montreal. It's tough because I'd love to see the Als spank the Riders too.

I rather Als win then let the media and the league get it's way and let Rider Nation get stroked.

The Argos could go 18-0 five years straight and they will still be a second rate team in that city.

Fix one Western final and you have 1 million morons acting as though their .500 team is the greatest thing on turf and all tuning in to watch their loser team get beat.

Makes much more sense to fix it so the loser Riders get into the big game and their loser fans will spend tons of money to watch them lose again.

Nothing wrong with a good team winning multiple times, makes the league stronger. However the CFL is never strong and wants a pisspoor team to win.

Agro fans don't travel well and don't spend the money.

so where do i get my tinfoil hat?

hopefully people do realize the hotels were probably booked long before anyone knew who was gonna be in the finals.

So had calgary actually played even a decent game they would of been staying in the hotel room that the riders are in and they would have the "home team lockerroom".

Move to Calgary and then hold a grudge against a QB for doing the exact same thing.

I'm expecting them to lose. So I have nothing to lose tommorrow.

You guys are pretty bitter so if they do win, I'll try to not rub it in too much.

not sure why its sad and cliche, who should they have?
really I don't care who the halftime show is, halftime is food time. I am not a fan of those guys, and there will always be a majority who will be unhappy about whoever is chosen. music is one of those things, at least its not nickelback

BTO are the 1970s version of Nickelback. They are awful - not to mention ancient.

Someone I know suggested that some members of CP hate the Riders out of jealousy. Aren't we all just green with envy, hey?
