Mike Beamish #CFLPA counts 462 ballots of peers voting for peers. Only two #BCLions make all-star team: OT Jovan Olafioye, P Richie Leone. Chris Walby @DarrinBauming @JeffR57 @3DownNation Stop trying to create atmosphere in TO. Give the cup to places/cities that ❤/ promote/appreciate - CFL ?‍?The CFL unveiled the list of officials for Sunday's big game. The name Jeff Harbin appears under Video Official. The same Jeff Harbin who has made several key mistakes recently, in leading up to the Grey Cup. There is no word whether reviews will be reviewed or not. Up until this time...there have been no challenge flags thrown on the announcement. CFL News #Argos inquired about Burris’ services before making trade with #Bombers for Drew Willy in September. - @JDunk12 #CFL Darrin Bauming "I think we've got a good thing going in Winnipeg, and I believe in what we're doing." – #Bombers kicker Justin Medlock -Medlock raved about #Bombers head coach Mike O'Shea tonight. Says O'Shea knows when to be hard on the team and when they need to be lifted. -Dave Dickenson mentions #BCLions' Wally Buono and #Bombers head coach Mike O'Shea as "being right there" with him as @CFL Coach of the Year. Mike Beamish #BCLions LB Solomon Elimimian named #CFL's outstanding defensive player, but not named to #CFLPA all-star team. Huh? Gary Lawless Shoutout to @EdTaitWFC, Rheanne and bluebombers.com as @cfl #cfl commish announces site has increased traffic by 50 per cent CFL Headlines Argos all-star Shawn Lemon signs contract extension goo.gl/fb/WkYuXr via @3DownNation Scott Billeck Bisons star Lalama named U Sports' top defender - via @winnipegnews shar.es/18oeLi via @scottbilleck @umbisons ?‍?"The Dali Lalama of linebackers..." Cam Cole Good line by CFL commish during Q&A. Q: "Terry Jones with The Edmonton Sun, Journal, Post Media." A: "Good to see all three of you." ?‍?This idea put forward by Gary Lawless just might be a great idea... "There have been whispers that Buono might step aside altogether. If he does elect to leave the Lions, the CFL should immediately hire him as a consultant." Game Notes This will be the first-ever post-season start for Burris vs Calgary. This game matches Calgary with a +19 Turnover Ratio (#2) against Ottawa who were -10 (#7 in the CFL). Ottawa has a current streak of 8 games in a row with a higher Time of Possession averaging 31:40 and 6 more plays. Ottawa set a team record with 6,191 passing yards in 2016 and ranked #1 in the CFL for the second year in a row. Ottawa has scored an offensive touchdown in every game this season – one of just two CFL teams to do that in 2016 (with Winnipeg). For the 10th time this season, the Stampeders did not allow a single QB Sack and had just four 2-&-Outs. Jerome Messam averaged 6.0 yards per rush in a career-best 84 yards in total. Calgary outrushed BC 166 yards to 81. Calgary survived back-to-back turnovers in the 3rd Quarter and did not allow BC a point off either giveaway. Calgary has now been in the West Division Final 8 times in the last 9 years and proceeded on to the Grey Cup 4 times. Calgary defence in 2016: The Stamps allowed an average of only 15.0 points per game over their final 6 contests (incl. the playoff win). Calgary has a current streak of 5 games in a row with a higher Time of Possession averaging 32:57 – so with Ottawa’s 8- game TOP advantage streak, one will have to give in this game. CFL History The very first Cheer Extravaganza was in 1923, but was quickly cancelled when an Ottawa cheerleader showed a naked ankle. #CFL #GreyCup ?‍?Did you know? Derek Taylor Reminded of what a great year it was for @andrewharris33. #1 in % carries with YAC, and % of rush yds after contact #Details #CFL #Bombers ?‍?Over Jerome Messam and J. Johnson Impressive.. Arash Madani No joke w/ Stamps, adding two American OL to the Grey Cup roster (starting one at RG). Must protect Bo. Taking smart measures to do so. #CFL Dave Taylor Expect Sask receiver @ShamawdChambers Outstanding Canadian of the 2015 Grey Cup, to hit open market as a free agent this winter. #riders ?‍?No thanks CFL News Betting Chambers ends up either an Argo or a Ticat. #CFL #Ticats #Argos ?‍?And don't forget to watch the U Sports final, the Vanier Cup, starting at 1pm ET. Laval and Calgary.
