I’ve been to a few games at new mosaic and I swear to god, prices at McMahon are about the same despite being about 1/10th as nice a stadium. It’s really too bad.

Agreed with the bolded part, it's the best. Which is why it's so frustrating they only have 2 home games all summer! I'm still not over that (PS Riders aren't here until almost Halloween, another WTF).
Yeah it's a shame that arguably the best team over the past decade plays in the worst stadium in the league, it really shouldn't be the case. I've never seen a football game at new Mosaic, but I saw the Flames vs Jets Heritage Classic there and LOVED it. That's exactly what I want the new McMahon to look like (minus all the green), it was perfect, including the size. I'm so worried they'll try to stick a non-retractable dome on it, please no.
Agreed the prices are ridiculous. They do need to make it attractive for a family outing at better price, I want to see big crowds there like when I was growing up. Despite the old barn, I still have a good time there. I love sitting higher up facing the west side, having a cold one while getting that nice evening sun, simultaneously watching the Stamps do their thing while watching the Calgary skyline, and the sun setting behind the Rockies. It's the best. Really gonna have to make the most of these 2 games, hopefully the weather cooperates at least.

Totally get this...the Stamps do have this offer, which for $89 gets you 4 family zone tickets, and a $40 food/beverage gift card. ($129 for Labour Day/Sask game)

I doubt it's mind games. Bo hasn't been sharp enough that he can afford to miss practice reps. Something must be nagging him. Would have to think there's a very good chance Maier starts.

Bo is officially listed as questionable for Saturday's game while Tre Roberson is listed as doubtful (Stamps injury report).

That is not ideal....at all.
Looked bad when it happened so no surprise. (Separated shoulder is my guess).
But the secondary is riddled at this point....yikes.

Is it really necessary to say Saskatchewan in both English and French? It’s identical in both.

Wasnt aware Stanback actually fractured his ankle in the season opener. Just thought it was twisted (ligaments and such).
Brutal injury for him and the Als.

Yeah, tough to replace Stanback that's for sure, but Dinos alum Jeshrun Antwi has been pretty good thus far.

It looked like Lewis didn't get a foot down in bounds on that catch, but then the Als give up 24 yards on the very next play courtesy of a bad snap.

Every deep throw from Fajardo is nothing more than a hope and a prayer.

Montreal DB should have just knocked that ball away instead of trying for the pick and of course it lands right in the lap of Duke Williams who's prone on the turf.

It's very encouraging to see so many young people in attendance at Percival Molson stadium tonight.
