hahahaha from TSN's report. How can we choke when we were super underdogs?? hahahahahahaha. I love Banks and his gold teeth.

Banks gave the Stampeders bench the choke sign after he came out on the field and was restrained by officials drew closer to Calgary's bench. ...

Korey Banks is a sore loser. He was trying to hit any Stamps player on that kneel down play. Love the way Drew Tate saying buh-bye to the Lion's fans.

To answer my own question:

2012: TOR 39 - CGY 36
2011: TOR 31 - CGY 29
2010: TOR 27 - CGY 24
2009: CGY 23 - TOR 20


I think the point spread might be 3 or less.



Looking forward to another speech like this next week:

Stamps playing like an absolute TEAM. Hufnagel deserves a lot of credit here, as does Dickenson calling a great game on offense and Campbell leading his defence with an extraordinary game against BC (remember back in the offseason with the whole offseason fiasco with Chris Jones and Dave Walkowsky?). Even on special teams (moreso last week) -- kicking game and kick cover game are both solid.

What can you say about Kevin Glenn? Did not play last week because Tate had better leadership, mobility, and emotion. So he goes out and makes plays on the move, comes back from adversity without missing a beat, and plays like a man on a mission.

Another huge game from the receiving corps (Price, Arthur, McDaniel, and Bryant all with big plays), and the O-Line with great pass protection. Cornish with some big plays both catching and running.

Mayo played very well in his first start; our secondary was better than their receivers, which is saying something. The key was no big plays, and we were able to hold them to field goals instead of touchdowns.

Another trip to the Grey Cup! Go Stamps Go!

The CFL and more importantly TSN has the one team they've wanted in there since the 100th was awarded to T.O.

The Argos will have convinced themselves by the end of the week listening to all the media reports that there is no way they can lose. Take the "Greatest team to have never won" show this Thursday talking about the 71 Argos losing to Calgary. That's a slap in the face to the Stamps and every other GC finalist.

Lets also hope the officiating doesn't hold that same thoughts next Sunday.

The Dream Game for the CFL this season is the BC Lions against Toronto Argonauts who happens to have the same owner David Braley. I guess the Stampeders made a messed on that plan.

Stamps need to play a discipline game the way they played tonight in order to avoid the officiating to dictate the game next week. The officiating was not a factor tonight but they almost did when they didn't give that TD to Maurice Price even though the replays showed the ball went past the line. Even on the Mitchell's TD on the 3rd down, i thought they will not give the Stamps the TD.

The media can talk about the Argos all they want during the Grey Cup festivities and Stamp players can just ignore what the media was saying the way they act before this game. According to the media, the Lions will win this game hands on even though the two teams almost had an identical record in the season. Let the media talk about Ricky Ray all they want all week.

Great day of football. I am really hoping Glenn can lead the Stamps to a Cup win, the guy deserves it.

Very happy for Kevin Glenn. A big statement game for him. I think next week we can call him Champion.

The Lions sure acted tough after the whistle, like that other team from Vancouver.

That match up would have made it a lot easier to fix the game as well and make sure the Argo's win.

Great game by the Stamps, I didn't think they had that in them. I was down on Glenn all year but outside of that horrendous INT he was very good today and played exactly how he should.

Next week should be a walk in the park for the Stamps as the Argo's are not a very good team but with it being the 100th Grey Cup and in TO you know every call is going the Argo's way.

John Hufnagel should be coach of the year imo and it shouldn't even be close. He lost his starting QB, had his team play through so many injuries, someone on twitter said that the Stamps played 70 different players this year. That speaks volume to Hufnagel's ability to bring the team together.

Dickenson and Campbell deserve a lot of credit, especially for today's play calling.

Great game by the Stampeders :

- No stupid penalties (in fact, no penalties at all untill late into the 4th quarter)

- Never gave up a big play on Defense / Special teams. A perfect example of bend, don't break. Made BC work for every yard (and use up valuable time in the fourth)

- Took advantage of BC's defensive errors and made them pay for them.

- Great running against the best run-defense in the league. Cornish once again a beast to bring down.

- Great play selection by Dickenson. That play action on 3rd and 1 was brilliant.

- Excellent game by Glenn. Good reads/ throws under pressure. Able to scramble and buy himself time.


Very happy for Kevin Glenn. After what this guy has done this season, he deserved a shot in the play-offs, and while I could understand Hufnagels decision to play Tate, I felt it wasn't really fair. Let's hope he and the team have another game like this next week.

GO STAMPS !!!!!

To be fair, if that play doesn't work, you'd have the usual guys in here calling for Dickenson's head, saying his play calling is head scratchingly awful.

Oh I was scared as ****, for sure. I just think it's interesting that it's being hailed as amazing play calling, when it's that type of unusal play calling that usually has people calling him an idiot.

It's just kind of a funny attidtude from fans; When it works it was genius, when it doesn't, he's a braindead moron. IMO, the reality was, it was just a risky play that worked.

I feel like Stamps fans underestimate Dickenson. I'm not sure how good he'd be (right now) as a head coach but he really is a very good coordinator.

BLM was robbed of the game winning points & TD pass. Instead, he had to settle for the game winning points in the form of an arm stretch.
