    I'm with argofan87. This will be a first for me but as I've mentioned over and over, too few nice Rider fans these days. Obnoxious, Rude, Racist, hopped up on Pil Swill Rider fans piss me off.

    This is the third consecutive year that the host team will play in the Grey Cup. Remember when there were always questions as to why it was so difficult for the host team to advance to the game?

    Honestly the Riders have to be a heavy fave playing in a total Green and White stadium. Hamilton will have to play the best game of the year. Only chance is to shut the crowd up and early. Hey they might be so burnt out and done by the time the game hits. Rider fans will all be partying all week. They don't do anything in moderation. It's difficult to party hard for the typical four days of Grey Cup. haha.

    Just think of how insufferable Dwight Anderson will be if the Riders win. If that isn't enough to get you to cheer for Hamilton, I don't know what is.

    I remember having folk from Hamilton sitting next to us actually cheering for the Argos in last year's GC game.I guess southern Ontario is finally embracing the concept western teams once did but not anymore.

    Ticats have put together an 1800 dollar package for return plane trip from hammy plus ticket. I doubt there will be many takers.

    Still not over the EF. I will watch the Grey Cup but it will be subdued at my house. I will never bring myself to cheer for Hamilton.

    I am feeling rather unenthusiastic about this Grey Cup myself. I don't even feel like watching any of the old ones that are airing this week. I am sure that I will get somewhat excited by Sunday but I am still ticked off about the EF for a variety of reasons.

    Can't miss those Brian Williams specials. I missed all of last years being at the game so hopefully they'll have a few good ones this year.

    I am starting to get over my funk over last Sunday's EF and am beginning to get increasingly excited about tomorrow's game. Of course, it would be better if the Argos were in it, but, in many ways, the league could not have asked for a better GC matchup.

    We all need to cheer up. Sure we are disappointed that the Argos are not there, but it is about the game and the league. Beside, Hamilton is not that bad, are they? We're all saying we need two strong teams in southern Ontario and what better way than to have the last two Grey Cup Champions in our back yards. Thanks to Rogers schedule, I made it to more games in Guelph this year (5) than Rogers Playpen (3) so I'm pulling for Hamilton. So why doesn't everybody take a deep breath, hold your nose and bellow out "OskeeWeeWee" at full volume. That will make you feel better.

    I just wanted to give kudos to CBC as they have had excellent coverage of Grey Cup week this week despite the fact that they no longer cover the games.

    As an Argos fan, cheering for the Ticats is not an option. Go Sask

    Ended up being $1400 and they sold out.

    Good thing you mentioned the "hold you nose" part. Your IQ will fall out if you do not hold your nose yelling that.

    I wonder if Ricky Foley will stand up on the Rider bench on Sunday and shout, "This is my town!" as he did a year ago.
