I didn't (totally forgot about it), that would have actually added to Toronto's total because that was technically a home game for them so counted as 0km, and just would have added to Saskatchewan's distance.  It actually makes the travel distance even less lopsided than I would have expected for Toronto.
Added it above now.

So Kelly has trully been.....outstanding...hahahaha....or shall we say average?....to good?
watch this....Duane Ford at around the 11:45 minute mark makes great sense...and nails the Argo thing on the head

I picked the visitors in both games this weekend.
As much as Calgary's offence has sputtered, they pulled out that win in BC 2 weeks ago and I think they can do it again.
For Hamilton, I felt like Bo Levi Mitchell's throws were looking a lot more like the old Bo, but his receivers were letting him down.  I think with Tim White back in the lineup this week, Bo will have better support on the receiver side and that they will be able to pull off the upset in Montreal.

I wanted nothing more than for Liegghio to figure it out and become that 20-year veteran NI kicker that stays with us forever.... but man oh man, am I ever thankful for Serge and what he's been able to do this year. That game in Calgary proved that he's ready to to be clutch in the crazy Canadian early-winter playoffs...

Since I'm on a rant about MOP posers...cause that's what they are..how does a QB with 23 TD passes become a serious contender for MOP? Brown had 9 in 2 and half games. 30 is the bare minimum imo or else voters should be looking elsewhere because 23 screams game manager only.
Also since Labor Day..7TD passes vs 5 INTs. Not MOP numbers when the season got real.
Consistency all season long has to be a consideration with a slight bias to performance after Labor Day when you are facing the stiffest competition. In that regard both Kelly and Betts can hardly be considered outstanding. Maybe MPP..most pedestrian.

That makes no sense.  If Brady O is MOP how could he not also be the top Canadian 

In my mind, Lawler is nice to have, Bailey is a must have. If we can only have one I would chose Bailey. 

I'll take a shot at that.
My bias is how he approached sitting in the head chair. I think where his strengths lay are as a Head Coach, not as an assistant coach calling plays. I think he's a motivator, a team cohesion guy, a get good feel for getting the most out of his players, a wally Buono type coach where his coordinators do the X's and o's and he leads the team from the people end of things. He got Montreal to the playoffs two years in a row in challenging environment and I think if the little gremlin man hadn't been the GM and hadn't given the HC job to his bud (JM), he would have grown into a great Head Coach. I know professional sports is immediate results, what have you done for me lately but give him a bit of growing pains leeway and reap the rewards.   

You’re more forgiving than my wife

I agree but I would hate to see it in Sask. I hope it's somewhere where I can at least not actively cheer against him every game.

Not for the Bomber game it won't.

nope....the last couple WF proof of that

the December 2021 game was as cold as it could possibly be (that windchill was insane) and we still jammed the place. People will come out in droves in a couple of weeks... no question in my mind. Wade has made IGF *THE* place to be...

you don't have to be a "Country music fan" to like Stapleton. He's more in the vein of 70s Southern Rock than anything, and is absolutely one of, probably, the Top 5 voices in all of music right now. If you haven't seen him live, it's an incredible show. He can sing, he can write, and he can absolutely shred on guitar....

Not a country music fan at all, but Chris Stapleton coming to Winnipeg as the only Canadian stop on his tour is pretty cool. That guy has one of the best voices in music, IMO.

When looking at BO's body of work, you can't underestimate his importance as a blocker.

he's a decent pass rusher now, but it's basically just all a speed rush technique.....he was next to non existent prior to this year, and tailed off a bit once teams figured out his schtick and just adjusted to force him out wide and deep......is good in backside pursuit after yards are gained by a RB , but thats also do to his lack of recognizing or respecting run as well....which doesn't make him a great well rounded d lineman in my opinion...Where as you have a guy like Jeffcoat who will use speed/technique...But also just bully his way and over power guys to collapse a pocket....and WJ who uses a combo of everything, as well as leads league...again in knockdowns....Betts gets/got a lot of props and love like most of the lions did early in the year before they...mainly the defence got exposed to what it was...and teams adapted and abused them...especially in the run game
kinda hit on that in previous post while u were typing this....But when healthy...Jeffcoat is best D-lineman ....all around D-lineman in the league...hands down..Technique...Power...Containment...killer against the run....just the best

On that note, I hate that Awe and Simoni Lawrence are the nominees from their respective teams.  I always hate how TSN pumps them up to be these great players when they both have a reputation of being dirty with garbage after the whistle.

Fwiw...
 
 

Oh please Oh please oh please

It would be just another reason to dislike Sask(not that I actually need one mind you). Always hated Burris.

Not sure why everyone is so quick to give Kelly MOP. His stats are beyond pedestrian. 3rd in passing TD’s, 4th in passing yards, tied for 4th in completion percentage. Brady is having the 2nd best rushing season by a Canadian in CFL HISTORY. He’s going to break 1500 yards. No one has done that(American or Canadian) in 10 freaking years.
