The clock stops with each down after the 3 minute warning or did I miss something?  I was having a heart attack during the final Bomber then Rider drive last night....heart attack city!
Anyway, I am so pleased today.

I had to watch the game in the TV room in my community so, several people came in to see the "novelty" of Canadian Football.  One person was there with me from the last 5 minutes of the game until the end...I had to stand the last minute or two due to being on the edge. 😉

Unfortunately,  I don't get ESPNnews which is the network showing both games on Sunday down here in the U.S.A.  So, I will catch the game on CJOB.  Fingers crossed that I'll be watching the Bombers in the Grey Cup on the following Sunday while visiting my sister in Phoenix Thanksgiving week.
This IS the year!  
GO BOMBERS!

I will find out later today but, I am hoping my local American Legion Post (2 miles from the house here in Belen, New Mexico) gets ESPN2.  That is the channel that will run the Western Semi Finals.  And it will also run the Grey Cup later on - FYI.

If my Post has that channel, I am throwing a party.  It will be a novelty for the NFL fans there to see a CFL game.  I'll bring food and host a blue and gold party. 😉 

GO BOMBERS!

haha..I do miss that up here in Canada...as well as Crispy Creme and Sonic

A very small world. 

I was raised in New Mexico but, spent 30 years in California.  Now, I bump into ex-Californians in New Mexico and we're like ex-Pats in another country...ha ha

You want to hear the good news?  I mean THE really good news? 😉  By 2020, the distribution center will be completed up in Colorado Springs.  At that time, In and Out will open their first restaurant in New Mexico!  GO BOMBERS!!!!
 
 

I have a BWW 10 miles from my house.  I will have to check them out... THANKS!

I can have my own parade, in my truck, in my little town down south.  Here is the route I would have in Belen where I live. 😉

This is the situation....
Riders 11 -6, Bombers 9-7, Lions 9-7 .....hmmmm 😉

I predict the Riders will beat the Lions this weekend...Riders 12-6, Lions 9-8 as a result.  The Bombers will beat the Stamps this weekend...Bombers 10-7, Stamps 12-5 as a result.  

The following week, the Stamps will have to show some momentum going into the playoffs.  They will beat the Lions and they will be the crossover team no doubt.  Our Bombers can put in the practice squad against the Eskimos that weekend and rest the starters.
Playoff Predictions:
West - Bombers over the Riders, Bombers over the Stamps.
East - Hamilton over the Lions, RedBlacks over the Hamilton.

Grey Cup Results
Bombers 34  RedBlacks 14
And I can do the Canadian Dance Moves I found online after our Grey Cup Victory!!!!!

He was tough. Always shrugged it off in like 15 seconds. They don't make Private Eyes like that anymore.

Mannix..the best opening theme ever.
 
 

Like, man my connections.....won't need my connections.....

It's legal in Canada now, not new. Those who smoked before, will continue. Just means they're buying it from a store and paying taxes rather than from dealers and gangs. 

Best path available would be stealing second place from the Riders and getting a home playoff game.
If not that, I don't see much difference between the paths on the west or the east.  The Riders and Stamps have had great seasons but they are both dealing with lots of injuries and not playing their best football right now.  Hamilton and Ottawa have had less impressive seasons but are both relatively healthy and are capable of having huge games.  Hamilton in particular scares me.

No easy paths to a grey cup win. 

At this point I don't care. We just need to make the playoffs.

History does not favor crossover teams in the playoffs. Simply winning the cup and ending the drought will be historic enough without being the first crossover team to do it. Take care of our business in the West. Forget crossing over.

I don't think Ottawa is the best match up for this team, they always seem to give them trouble, and this year is the most vulnerable Calgary has looked so west all the way. I ain't scared of Saskatchewan in the least, as evidenced by yesterday. Take care of the football they can't do **** against you. 

Saw a bunch on BB saturday at the forks at 1030 am while waiting for my daughters dance class to end.. They were all very friendly and honestly... Not that young. 

I can't wait........

They’re honestly not so bad. I was at the banjo bowl and they were mostly respectful and engaged in the good natured ribbing. 
 
Ps. Riders suck 😜

We don't really like to see any Rider fans in Winnipeg, anytime, but since there are presently no laws against it, they will come. 
Seriously, there won't be many drunk Rider fans in the 'Peg this weekend. The Labour Day weekend in Regina, IMO, is the big drunk fest with many Bomber and Rider fans coming to the game already having loaded up.
Bombers will win this one. Bombers by 10 (although I did make the same prediction for the Banjo Bowl).

How many drunk Rider fans do you think you will see at the game?  

GO BOMBERS!!!!
