Who you picking, 'Riders or 'Als?

I am going for 'Riders.


Tim Lysyk

Tim, I'm finding it tough. As an Easern guy and a former Montrealer,
I naturally gravitate to the Als, but if there's a Cinderalla team
that everyone loves, it's the Riders. Bottom line, I hope the Als
win on a last second play, where the Riders can leave the field
feeling that they gave their all. Frankly, the Als have too much
talent for the Riders, but they have a habit of falling short in the
big game, so who knows.

Peter

Jeez, I called it. Montreal won by one point on a field goal with no
time on the clock.

What a dissappointment. At least it wasn't a blow-out.

Tim Lysyk

What a blunder at the end by Saskatchewan to get a 'too many men'
penalty and give Montreal a second try at the field goal. The guy who
blew it better not show his face in Regina ever again.

I didn't sit down once for the last ten minutes of the game as Montreal
clawed their way back from a 16 point deficit.

Hey, isn't that like only 2/3's of a US point or something...?

TC,
R
...31-30 in Canada, 24 and 7/8ths-23 and 15/16ths in the US...

No, it's the other way around, the field is bigger here, so are the balls.

That was painful. I hope they don't have another "load of manure on the
offending players lawn incident" like what happened with the field goal
kicker a few years back.

One thing about the CFL.......it's rarely boring, and the game isn't
over until its over.

Still.....I would have prefered the Riders win.

Ah - I sorta figured a Canadian meter was smaller than a regular meter...

TC,
R
....and as to the latter, maybe yer guys need smaller Neuticles...
