106th Grey Cup, 5:30 PM, ESPN2

Calgary Stampeders vs Ottawa RedBlacks

They're playing in Edmonton, where it's unseasonably warm -- high of 0 Celsius today.

Calgary has the best record in the league, and this is their third straight Grey Cup appearance -- they've lost the last two.

Calgary is led by QB Bo Levi Mitchell, who played HS for Katy, started his freshman year for June Jones at SMU, and then transferred to Eastern Washington, where he won the FCS version of the Heisman.  

Calgary also has former Tech CB Jamar Wall and SMU LB Jagared Davis. 

Ottawa has a couple of guys who played for UH -- SirVincent Rogers and Richie Leone.

Was it last year or the year before when the Grey Cup was played in a blinding snowstorm? That was pretty awesome.

Hurry up, let's get this season over with!  It's getting cold up here.

Fuck Katy High

Jeffcoat was a game away from making it. 

Looks like he's been killing it up there. Good for him. Such a great guy.

Is that Hugh Campbell's kid? He was the Oilers Charlie Strong.

Yep. She looked pretty great, too.

Do any of the CFL Teams play in a Dome?  I know Toronto/Montreal did for a while, doesn’t appear to be the case anymore.  Not sure which of BC or Calgary had a Dome.

BC is a dome.

Yep it was awesome

97-yard punt return with :01 left in the half... pretty cool.

Calgary in control.

[Beau Vine 54018]

Toronto built a 25K seat football/soccer stadium (about like that place in Frisco).

Should I know who Alessia Cara is?

I made Canada's greatest culinary creation at halftime -- poutine.

 

Seriously, how in the hell has french fries covered in gravy and cheese not caught on in this country?

 

[clapclapclap 9000]

I love how the goalposts complicate matters when starting at your own 1-yard line.

[Beau Vine 54018]

Ballgame.  Plainview's Jamar Wall makes another huge defensive play.  I wonder if he knows Chad Briscoe?

[Beau Vine 54018]

 

[DaysOff 7855]

That was not a well played game. I'll blame the field.
