Lineup for tomorrow is out, lots of rookies fighting for a spot should get some playing time.

Is Ferraro (Guelph) expected to challenge Paredes at all?

Finally, no more drink tickets!

Molson draft beer is now available in Sections I and P as Canadian and Coors Light will be served on tap

It’s a much simpler process to quench your thirst as it is no longer necessary for fans to buy beer and drink tickets and then line up to get their beverage. Beer and drinks can now be purchased with a one-step transaction
...
Credit and debit cards will now be accepted at a number of concession locations

Its gameday! Anyone heading down to watch the first game, not expecting a huge crowd with the weather it is.

Just leaving the game, love where my new seats are for the season (J, Row 52). The weather held up and made for a nice night at McMahon. Having draught beer available is a nice addition! Love that horn/siren they were playing before kicks, it has a very 3rd down in New England vibe to it.

Can’t wait for meaningful games to start!

Different strokes I guess -- by the third time I heard it I was already annoyed. +1 for trying something different -- I guess I didn't understand the point as they would play it during a kickoff for either team... #butwhy

Ya, that’s fair... it should be reserved for kicks received IMO, but I like that its something new to help add to the in-game atmosphere

I think this was the siren that was played? I really enjoyed it personally but mostly because I remembered it from the Purge.

former cfl all-star receiver eric rogers has agreed to terms with the calgary stampeders, per sources.

The six-foot-four, 215-pounder made an impact during the stamps 2014 grey cup championship run and followed that up by leading the cfl in receiving yards (1,448) and touchdowns (10) in 2015. That drew interest from more than 20 nfl teams, including 16 who met or worked rogers out.

I'm trying to stay calm regarding this signing, but Eric Rogers at 80% of what he was is still pretty darn good.

The team isn’t confirming.

It'd be a game changer if it comes true and he can return to form, but a couple of major injuries and 2 years off will create some rust.
