Cheering for another global pandemic to hit before Friday.

Selling all the way. WORST possible matchup as a Bomber fan.
Money is no object...especially when you have none.

The Zipp

will not be attending

will not even be watching on Tv

As much as it pains me to say, I'll be cheering for the Riders, spit!!, I can't bring myself to even remotely cheer for prima dona, chump alexander, no way. Hope they get smoked by 20.

I'll be cheering against the Riders. Yeah, not a fan of Alexander but I can stomach him more than I can the Riders.

Montreal is super over rated. alexander is ok, but he's not as good as folks are making him out to be. And maaaaaan does he love himself and the sound of his own voice. He's the king of vain!! Riders D line is going to chew him up and spit him out, gimpy hamstring and all!! He won't finish the game

Sold my ticket. This is the barfiest of  barfy Grey Cup matches. I won't be watching. At least I made some money off a rider fan so there's that.

Of course I want MTL to win.  ABS.

EXCEPT: I think it is better for the Bombers if SSK wins the cup because it satiates the hunger.  Hunger is like 20% of the game come post-season.  See: 2019 WPG -- where hunger was like 50% of our path & win.

Get that hunger out of that team and those players and then they'll be on the downtrend.  Sure, they could have a repeat in '26 like we did in '21, if they are dominant enough and do a good FA.  But in general it'll be the downtrend because they satiated the hunger already.  And you can't fake hunger.

Whereas, if SSK loses: they'll just be hungrier next season!  And even harder to beat.  My only real problem will be seeing Oullette win another cup.  Man, I hate that guy.

Plus, this really is the best of all worlds (short of WPG vs SSK in GC), as PAS will be fully-attended, mostly by green people.  Hotels and restaurants will do gangbuster business.  I expect even more SSK people to attend here than WPG went to SSK in '23... because that was our 4th cup and many traveling fans had GC fatigue.
