So, no K.Johnson REC for SSK.  That's gonna hurt.  He's the only one with "great" hands.  The rest need the ball thrown to them -- no Kenny circus in that squad.

And no Robustelli!

Very bad news for Greenerville.  4 starting NAT RECs!  Yowzers.  Picton & Ajou?  Hahaha.  At least they benched Busby -- he's done nothing in 14 weeks.  In comparison MTL has nothing but REC talent.

It's going to come down to the plan.  Can SSK's "we don't need no steeenkin receivers!" team design still get the dink & dunk done 13 times each drive??  Expect a heavy run attack.

It's kind of funny, but this GC might have the most hitch screens ever seen in 1 game!

Is there a betting line over under on hitch screens? Im taking over all day.

MTL will be ready for the dink and dunk bore-a-thon offense Trevor Harris plays and wont make the mistake BC made on final drive.

Im suprised so many people are picking Riders.  I think MTL wins this easy

I don't understand why they start so late, it's November, wrap it up before the sun goes down.

They want it prime time in the east. Ratings first, football second.

National prime time is the same everywhere.

Anjou is capable of having a big game and Nield has been quietly productive.

sold my tickets to rider fans for my cost

just bought better seats for half the cost...Ole, ole, ole

basically free tickets (sports fan math applied...)

For those that dont have TSN, you should be able to watch the pregame on YouTube.

I thought about that at some point. But it's my seats with the regulars I've sat by all year.

Means something.

What a gorgeous fall day for the big game! It really is a shame at least some of the game can't be played in the warm sunshine. Have a fun time for those of you who are going. Although I aim not cheering for either team, I'm looking at the results of the game this way- whichever team loses I will be happy with their misery and heartbreak. For the winning team- I won't talk about it

Maybe a stupid question, please don't flame me. Are you all wearing blue and gold to the game today?

Reason I ask - I always think it's a bit odd when fans wear jerseys not represented in the game being played, especially when they wear NFL jerseys (what's that about?), but seems it would be different in the Grey Cup.

I honestly can't remember what I wore to the last one here - probably just a parka because it was so cold.

So - thoughts?

[gobombersgo]

Wear whatever.

But, Grey Cup week is about fans from across the league coming together while representing their teams.

The tradition at Grey Cups is, at the base, to wear your team colours. Some people will wear a little something from the team they've chosen to support as well.

Great - thank you.  Can't bring myself to wear something from either team so this is perfect.

Looking forward to it!
