the Winnipeg Blue Bombers are in the East final this weekend against the Hamilton Tiger Cats! Go Blue!! I haven't been this excited for nearly a decade since we've been wallowing in basement-dwelling misery.

Montreal's out! Winnipeg's in!

GO BLUE!!!

    Is that why more Canadians watch the Super Bowl than the Grey Cup? That's no bullshit actually, I was surprised to hear that. I actually like the CFL, though I hardly ever get to see any.

    I'll have to check and see if they are showing the games down here, I hope so. Good luck to your Bombers, maybe you'll meet the Lions in Vancouver. :D

    which means "hey, at least we GOT to the Grey Cup". :lol:

    I'm sorry to say I expect BC to destroy whomever they face. I can't imagine Edmonton will get past them this week.

    How badly do I want to see
    the Blue Bombers freakin'
    WRECK
    former QB Kevin Glenn on Sunday?

    As badly as I wanted Montreal
    OUT of the running!

    As for the West...
    The Stamps are out,
    so does it really matter?

    Cheers.

    actually, even as a Bomber fan, I have a soft spot for Kevin Glenn. He was booted from our team when I didn't think he deserved to be. After seeing him get his arm broken in the east final back in 2001, when we probably would have won the grey cup had he been healthy, must have been awful for him. I know it was awful for Winnipeg fans.

    I wonder what's going to happen to Burris now. He obviously isn't happy about being second banana.

    NFL Network has shown games on Friday night all year. I'm not sure about the playoffs, since they are on Sunday. Depending where you live, check your local sportsnet.

    that doesn't happen with CFL football. hockey fans can be brainless goons. football fans can be idiots, but not on a grand scale. :lol:

    sadly, yes I did. And BC wasn't even playing that well. It could have been MUCH worse.

    Dammit,
    dammit,
    DAMMIT dammit dammit!
    The Bombers barely showed up.

    Kudos to the Lions for a heck of a game.
    I'm going to drown my sorrows.
    See you in the summer of 2012,
    fellow Bomber fans!

    Cheers.
