105th GREY CUP GAME THREAD! / November 26th / Calgary vs. Toronto

Keys to the game for the Argos:

1. He will no doubt see the ball: it's crucial for Coombs to have a very good game. One YAC TD would be seriously advantageous.
2. Fight to at least a draw on every special team.
3. Takeaways are glorious, but first and foremost the Argos cannot afford to give away the football.

Love seeing the snow! That alone should put an end to this ridiculous talk of moving the season up by a week.

Argos will win this one 27-26 with Ricky Ray engineering his 43rd, I think, game-winning drive. Having said this, I would be just as happy if the Argos could do to the Stamps what they did in 2012 or what Hamilton did to a heavily favoured Edmonton team in 1986. Go Argos!

The snow makes everything more unpredictable - a slip here, a slide there and the shape of the game could change tremendously.

Well said!
Hope they win but let’s try and enjoy the ride today, pre game jitters have kicked in!

Here we go.....

Arrrrgooos!!! Let's do this!!

The opening act, crap music was brutal.

Won the coin toss. Good start. All this snow has the makings of a Canadian classic.

Snow Bowl 2 --- let's hope for the same result -- I was there in 1996, can't say I'm too upset about being indoors for this one.....get the Orange Glass Cutter gloves!

Right, that's the one a fan threw a snowball at Ismail right?

One of the best catches of all time in 96 was Edmonton's downtown Eddie Brown off his foot for a long TD.

No, that was 1991 in Winnipeg, and it wasn't a snowball, it was a can of beer!🍺

Wow, thanks. Didn't realize that.

Tough to go down early, but that was a well designed play Calgary ran for the TD.

We need to answer that TD with a nice sustained drive.

I would have thought with the snow and the footing in favour of the receiver that Ray would try some vertical throws?

Not his m.o.

I love being proven wrong!

Awesome!!!
