Is the game going to be on TV in Calgary or will it be blacked out.

I want to know if I should crowbar my wallet open and go to the game.

I didn't hear if the blackout was lifted, usually blackouts are to be lifted no later then 24 hours before game time.

They lifted the season opener about 30 minutes before the game. Unless it is a near sellout the game will be blacked out, and I don't see the Stamps selling out today against the Bombers.

Welp, they lifted it for this one.

Pretty solid play by the stamps, 29-8 beginning of the 4th Q.

Gesser in for the 4th Quarter, time to see what hes all about.

CaramonLS · 08-06-2005, 07:39 PM

Not a fair situation for Gesser to be thrust into, because hes not a scrambler, and is absolutely getting pummelled with all these O-linemen down for the count.

This is insane. Stamp going down on just about every play.

No kidding...most of he injuries directly related to playing on turf.

Ok game. Nothing to get excited about, but a win's a win.
Defense ok, Copleand having a good game.

Burke Dales has to be the warrior of the game, he broke his ankle and still punts, not only that but he breaks a block and makes a touchdown saving tackle.

EDIT- also the Nik Lewis tunnel celebration and the Copeland line dance were the two bets combo TD dances ever.
