Should be an exciting weekend.

What kind of Jet car do you drive?😜

Taurus SHO

Montreal and Riders move on. Riders will have some horseshoe magic luck calls in that game that will throw them over the top. Montreal will run the ball 25+ times and win a tight one.

As reasonable as any out come. Never know in the cfl though. Could see more defensive scores than offensive

The classic 1989- 5 speed Yamaha V6- very long legs on that car- the faster it went, the quieter and smoother  it was. Could not outrun rust, though. Great seats for long distance driving, but you sure had to watch your speed.

 

So bold.

Not sure why these guys need to get their name in the paper?

Tells you everything you need to know.

Guy loves shoving his cleats in his mouth.  Now I’m torn between wanting to see Banks cry and Levels getting told

Its only a 6 1/2 hour drive from Cowgary to Gopherville, soooo.....

For me, it's always been 7 1/2 to 8 hrs to Regina from Calgary. Another 5 1/2 to 6 hours to Winnipeg from Regina. About 14 hours total. I've always set my cruise at 8 kph over the speed limit when I do the drive. Been doing that for 31 years & never been pulled over for speeding. I used to make that drive alone no problem up to when I was into my late 50's. Now I can't do it by myself anymore as I tire much easier. I worry about falling asleep at the wheel & hitting the ditch. Getting old sucks.

Time to get a Tesla and put it on auto drive

Probably better than the alternative.

With a name like Levels you think he would levelled up in maturity and shut his mouth.   Reminds me of Kevin Eiben guaranteeing the Bombers wouldn't score more than 10 points against them in 2007.

Pretty reliable 7 hours for me. Also highly dependent on where you are starting from in calgary.

7 to Regina, 6 to Winnipeg.....pretty much every time. 

5 to 5.5 hours from Regina to Winnipeg. Since it was twinned the whole way it has gotten much faster.

Though I will throw in the caveat that I haven't driven that way since I had kids so it probably takes 12 hours to get to Regina now, plus another 4 to get everyone out the door.

Why are people going to Regina anyway?

So they can time how long it takes to escape, apparently.

If I could get from Calgary to Winnipeg on a single tank of gas, it would be the most glorious day....

I would go through the States and back up through ND

I want the Riders to win because

(1) They (supposedly) have less unvaccinated players which would reduce the chance of an outbreak infecting the Bombers.

(2) The thought of our club profiting off Rider fans coming to IGF paying to watch their team get spanked is nothing short of poetic.

yes getting old is pretty gross.  Lots of stuff you have to deal with that's gross.  And of course, no one tells you this.
