You live in Calgary and you get very used to the Choke. Flames must own the record for most first round exits and the Stamps have choked away many a Western Final/ Grey Cup.

It's what the city does.

A stupid fumble lost us this game, period!. Not only does he fumble the ball but they take it to the house. That was the game. They ####ed it all up on that drive.

Nothing wrong with going for the win... but he had time for one or two plays after and he surely had options elsewhere to get a first down. Needlessly throwing into double coverage was stupid. That was straight up a bad read.

And there was time to get a first down and look for a safer TD play.

Well I gave the team a chance to redeem themselves, kicked their loyal fans in the nuts again. Stamps can go #### themselves they don't deserve another second of my time.

The score is a result of the play calling. It was brutal.

Do you take the NFL seriously? They have equally bad play calling.
Can you read ? Where did I mention the NFL ? I said the CFL and the Stamps suck, what does that have to do with the NFL ?

KJ with at least 3 (?) drops that game, plus the fumble. Plus the penalty. Can't believe it.

How can a team be that ####ing stupid? How? Did they bet against themselves?
I must be ####ing stupid to think I could win a bet on the game. Bet $100 with a friend and now i'll never hear the end of it. Stupid Stampeders

There was a time when Anthony Calvillo and the Als were always the dominant team in the regular season, but their Grey Cup record was 1-5. Calvillo retired with a 3-5 record in the big game. Bo is what, 1-2 now? Still got plenty of career left to win a couple more but this one and the last are both huge missed opportunities. I'll still be back next year as this was a fun season to follow with a very heartbreaking ending. 12 year old me would probably be in tears right now.

I can read.

You said you can't take cfl seriously. The question is why?

This loss is on the Stamps, not the league. What the hell does the league have to do with it?

Jordan instead of going down on the TORONTO 7 on first down on a play that was already broken. Nope! Cost the Stamps and all the fans the Grey Cup. 10- 14 point swing.
What happen afterwards is all secondary.
No throwing to deep into a cover two with the safety coming over the top and NOT to the back of the end zone. Mitchell's fault game over. Needed 5 yards and it was there. Or play safe with Messem which is NEVER a wrong decision. Dickenson again did not learn in the Biggest game ignoring Messem when it is the most crucial time.

Thankfully, assuming RR retires, there's no future Hall of famers left to knock us out next year.

One of those games where they beat themselves, because Toronto didn't do a damn thing to deserve this win. Luckily it's well into the hockey season so my care level is quite low.

I shouldn;t be this upset based on how all this franchise does is choke from the 90s on, but damn, what a garbage team.

I don;t care if they go 18-0, we all know they will have 1 L before the end of the season.

CHOKE.

Way to man down Stamps. 2 years in a row. GARBAGE

Even a FG miss and 1 point likely wins the game.

Any chance they were afraid to make the safe play, tie the game on a field goal then take their chances in overtime again?
