SpeedFlex27 Posted August 29, 2023 Report Share Posted August 29, 2023 (edited) One thing I've learned over the years is that as a fan you never should take your opponent for granted. When fans start talking guaranteed wins or they have no woriies that's when a snake under a rock bites them in the ass & we lose. Especially in Regina on Labour Day.

BigBlueFanatic Posted August 29, 2023 Report Share Posted August 29, 2023 Will never assume a win on Labour Day, but at the same time these last few years of knowing the odds are in our favour has been awesome. rebusrankin, Wanna-B-Fanboy, BaconNBigBlue and 4 others 3 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stickem Posted August 29, 2023 Report Share Posted August 29, 2023 Sometimes you have to play the refs as well as the green guys on Labour Day.....They like to have a leg up ....especially if the stands are full and we are pasting their arses to the wall.....No more hitting Zack on the ground and looking the other way........hopefully..GOBOMBERS rebusrankin, BigBlueFanatic and Mark F 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluto Posted August 29, 2023 Report Share Posted August 29, 2023 Now that the Tabbies have someone competent calling plays they may just be able to do something. And certainly our defence has been leaky on second an long for a few weeks. But we've basically been winning our recent games not by defensive stingyness but by just plain outscoring everyone. Still taking an Argo win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither should be able to beat us. It's never guaranteed; but I see no difference between a poop sandwich or poop salad starting at QB for them.

Geebrr Posted August 29, 2023 Report Share Posted August 29, 2023 Dolegala is starting. Also way more likely to throw the game away. Booch and Noeller 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted August 29, 2023 Report Share Posted August 29, 2023 Basically a choice of the smartest dumb kid...neither of their QB's should beat us...and they won't unless we royally crap ourselves...and we have done that a few times already and still won Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TO is 2 games up on Montreal WITH a game in hand. The only "problem" game for the Argos is the Bombers. The Bombers are coming off a bye week when they play them, and if the BC game was any indication, the Argos might be in for a long night. bluto, JCon and BigBlueFanatic 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're likely right... but being a Toronto sports fan for this long has made me reflexively "glass-half-full". As for what constitutes a "problem" for us? We have a QB that frankly we can't do without. If The Chad is out, it will be as if the Boatmen have no oars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree Bluto - I am looking forward to the Argo game against my Bombers - Just to see who might be Number 1!! And I for one am glad that the Argos have a good QB. The CFL needs all the help it can get and a good Argo team is good for all the league. bluto, K-Shack and Noeller 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
