That's it! Very questionable call on 3rd down by Montreal, but I'll take it.

[Ashasx]

Almost as good as seeing the Red Wings lose.

Wow, what an upset!!! Hamilton going to play Winnipeg next week.

That was a right call. Only problem the receiver can't hang on to the ball.

I'm glad there will be a new Grey Cup champ this season. I'm really looking forward to seeing Winnipeg and Hamilton duke it out in the East final.

I will have to disagree, that is not a high % play, not low % either but you see receivers drop that type of pass all the time.

Sad news outta of BC tonight, BC Lions head trainer Bill Reichelt lost his son in a car accident.

The teenage son of B.C. Lions head trainer Bill Reichelt died in a car crash Saturday night in Langley that is under investigation by the RCMP.

Two cars crashed separately at the scene, and charges are being contemplated against both drivers, said police.

I see BC winning the Grey Cup easily.

EDMONTON -- The Edmonton Eskimos will be without linchpin running back Jerome Messam when they face the B.C. Lions on Sunday with a berth in the Grey Cup on the line.

The 26-year-old running back tore the meniscus in his left knee in a violent collision in last weekend's win over the Calgary Stampeders in the Western Semi-Final.

Messam, walking in on crutches, confirmed Tuesday that an MRI has revealed the tear, which will keep him out for the rest of the season.

Not good for the Eskimos, I would of still had them getting smoked regardless.

1998 Eastern Semi Final

And I just watched a Stamps-Lions one on TSN, but I can't find it on youtube. I didn't recognize what exact game it was. The Lions won the game.

If its from the playoffs, I'd wager it was the '94 West Final, that was a classic. Did Darren Flutie catch the winning TD as time expired? Along with game 7 of the '94 WQF against the Canucks, my 2 most painful sports memories of all-time.

Of all the years during the Flutie/Garcia/Dickenson eras with dominant teams, that '94 squad was probably the best of the bunch. Still can't believe they didn't win it all that year.

And the CFL playoffs continue. Bombers closing down the old stadium hosting the East final, a great way to send it out.

Then BC opens up their stadium for its first playoff game. Exciting stuff.

I expect Bombers Lions grey cup

[shermanator]

Maybe I'm just getting tired of all of the Swaggerville talk, but I'm rooting for Hamilton to win today.

[Machiavelli]

What's the point of review if you're going to make the wrong call anyway?

I'm puzzled. He dropped the ball before he landed...

How's that a catch?
