  1. For whatever reason, this scenario keeps replaying in my mind: Imagine that last ball thrown hits the upright and floats into the waiting arms of a Rider player in the end zone. The fans erupt in hysteria believing it's a TD - a miracle comeback! Rider players do some lame, rehearsed celebration. Euphoria turns into confusion and shock as it eventually dawns on them that they've actually lost the game.

    Evans, there best WR,  is dinged up to with a bad toe. This bolds well for the Blue Bombers.

    I don't know any of the specifics but I'm thinking it would have to be a really nasty toe injury to greatly limit his effectiveness as a receiver given the painkillers and shots available to players these days.

    I think 1965 in the third game of the Western Conference Final. I have a pic on my laptop of the Ploen to Ken Nielsen 109 yard TD to win the game but I can't put it up here. Nielsen put a move on Stamps corner Harvey Wylie, deked him out & was wide open. I think that was the last playoff game we won in Calgary until today. 

    I actually looked that up earlier today (last playoff win in Calgary) and I thought I must have missed something as 1965 is such a long time ago. Thanks for confirming my findings. 

  4. Weather update - It looks like Calgary is getting some snow tonight:

    Calgary,AB
    Alerts in Effect    
    Snowfall Warning    
    Issued at 04:30 Saturday 09 November 2019    

    Snowfall with total amounts of 10 to 20 cm is expected.

    A strong cold front will result in heavy snow over parts of southern Alberta this weekend. The most intense snow is expected tonight and through the overnight hours. General accumulations of 10 cm will occur by Sunday morning, however, some areas could see upwards of 20 cm.
    Temperatures are also expected to fall throughout today as the cold front passes.

  5. Lapo has the ability to come out with a great offensive strategy and solid plays after a week of study and prep. When the execution is there, they often get an early lead. However, it's his in-game adjustments and play calls, mainly in the second half, where he falters. He just doesn't seem to be able to counter to what the opposing defence is doing as the game progresses.

    Its a bullshit play but there were garbage/missed calls all game, going both ways. Just sounds like sour grapes at this point. Bighill with another forgettable game. Hey Adam, stop whining about the refs and build a time machine to go and bring back 2018 Adam Bighill. I like him better. 

    Well he did get two sacks and played a key role in shutting down the Als rushing attack. I'm a lot more concerned about why the secondary looked so discombobulated in the fourth quarter.
