Glenn was a supposed toss in with the trade, but all he's done is quietly and humbly won game after game after game. Everyone wants to see what the shiny new toy is (Tate, and now BLM), but Glenn is getting it done, consistently, and however unspectacularly week after week, leading the team to GC last year and the team is 13-3 this year. Not sure what more you can ask, or would want, out of any QB in the CFL.

Pretty damn good and the Stamps are pretty lucky to have gotten the guy when you look at some of the other QB situations around the league.

I've said Glenn deserves to carry the team. He looked slow and sluggish today. His reads were slow and he seemed to hold in to the ball and bumble around.

The team needs to be sharper going forward. Not just Glenn.

I was at the game - maybe 8000 people there. Battle of Alberta indeed.

If you were an Eskimo fan would you pay money to watch them play right now?

When given with the other sports option in town, the answer isn't as easy as you're assuming, even if both teams only have 1 win each at home this year.

That said, likely Edmontonians were all at the movie premiere of "Gremlins" last night.

27,000 did pay, but only 8,000 came. A few paper bags.
