That's some pretty good coverage for down south. I wonder if they are sending their reporter to compare the Grey Cup to the Super Bowl which I think SF is hosting this year. Not sure why they took a couple of shots at Calgary. Must be because he was getting is info from the Spirit of Edmonton guys.

Great idea having stage at end of the stadium and not on the field. All halftime shows should take notice.

Why is Milt Stegall lecturing people on what they have to do in the Grey Cup?

I just find it funny that a guy that was a playoff disappointment feels the need to tell people what intensity level they have to bring.

Ratto takes shots at everything. He's actually pretty funny on twitter

If Ottawa can keep running the ball with some decent success I like their chances a lot more.

I was pretty sour when the Stamps didn't resign Lemon (pun intended), but I haven't really
Noticed him too much today. Did he do much in the regular season? I don't really pay attention to other teams other than the Stamps.

I'm actually kind of nervous watching this game, really hoping for Ottawa to pull it out.

I find it funny when some armchair quarterback feels the need to repeatedly slam the league mvp and future hall of famer because he's still pouting about said QB costing HIS team Grey Cups. We got your opinion in your first post. Have a bit of respect and give it a rest.

And, whenever that arrogant, cowardly traitor Jones loses, it's a good CFL game.

I didn't realize we couldn't talk about the current game performance of one of the Grey Cup participants and how it's draws a parallel to his historical performances in the playoffs because some Burris/Ottawa fan boy doesn't like it. I've brought it up twice in two different context

Have some respect for the current League MVP? Give me a break. This is a thread to discuss the Grey Cup.

Does JC sherrit throw any hit above the knees? I know he's only 4' 9 but that doesn't excuse the kneecaps....
