[1argoholic]

No Argo fan should cheer for Edmonton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!! We have 16 Grey Cups and they sit closest with 13. NO TO EDMONCHUK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Orridge looks on tonight, flawless coin toss and brilliant smile when the jets flew over the stadium, although it could all go for a shit when they hand him the microphone.✌

Let's just hope he doesn't go hit up the rum hut hard during the game. Not even sure if orridge even knows the two teams that are playing tonight. But I will give him a 90% shot of him messing up announcing the team name winning the grey cup or pronouncing the wrong name for head coach or mvp.

Best thing to do then would be to add to our total starting with next year. I've already booked my vacation time for next November so I'll be there to see number 17.

Good game, let's go Ottawa. Should be a great finish.

[Argo57]

Would love to see Ottawa pull off the win today, although Henry does make some scary decisions at times.

I'm glad it's not the Argos in this nail biter. Easier to watch when it's not your team.

This game is like the new logo, plain and boring at this point.

Crazy stuff.

This game has been boring???

More like it had some serious Lulls. Not a classic but a good game. To win a game on a pass interference call sucks. Now we have to hear all the City Of Champions shit again.

Go Argos Go we're only two Grey Cup victories ahead now.

[Argo57]

Decent enough game, not a classic by any means, Ottawa hung tough and played hard, oh well roll on 2016!!

[argotom]

Agreed, tale of two halves.
Lights out first and a defensive struggle second.

[R.J]

Congratulations to the Edmonton Eskimos organization, well deserved win. I'm actually really happy that Edmonton won, mainly for two reasons. #1. I think it might have been too early for the Redblacks to win a Grey Cup, as weird as that may sound and #2. I've become a big fan of Mike Reilly, love the way he plays out on the field, plays the game the way it should be played IMO.

congrats Esks (my west team)


ANYBODY BUT HAMILTON SINCE 1999

I am hoping that Ottawa wins today but I am predicting a 27-20 Edmonton victory.

Good call, Ravi.

This was a similar game to the 1988 game that was won 22-21 by Winnipeg over B.C. Lots of offence in the first half with defences dominating the second half. That '88 game is considered to be an underrated one so I don't know what that makes this one.

Ottawa gave it a good shot but Edmonton was the best team all season and we saw why that was the case tonight. Before OV says anything though, one thing that I have been wondering since the game ended is if Ottawa perhaps should have tried to run the ball more in the second half. I know that wasn't this team's bread and butter but they had some success running it in the first half and early in the 3rd quarter when they took the lead again but seemed to go away from it after that. With their passing game struggling mightily, perhaps they should have tried the running game a bit more. That Edmonton defence was one tough one though.

[R.J]

I really think something needs to change with this challenging PI calls thing though! That's my only issue with the game right now!

With a 5 yard illegal contact rule which is a judgement call by the official if PI isn't called on the field it should not be challenged!

Now we have to hear all the City Of Champions shit again.

At least we don't have to hear Burris! Imagine if the Red Cracks won. Riley's comments after the game were pure class.

[1argoholic]

Burris has never been anything but classy in his many years in the league. You can only hear the bad Hank bs for so long and the disrespect by every organization who's dumped him for a younger qb before you snap back. I love Hank and he's been solid for every team he's played for. Now he can retire.

Why should he retire (if he doesn't want to)? He had a very good year, demonstrating (a) that he still has physical skills and (b) he's still durable as hell. He can probably continue to earn a very nice salary.

[OV Argo]

Cry-baby loser shit there; those PIs were blatant and as plain as day; the RedBlacks D has been quite over-rated because of their sub-par and inexperienced secondary and it showed in the big-game; and at least Reilly took some shots downfield where big plays can happen; Burris seemed afraid to throw downfield after the 1st half and the Esks D just waited for a lot of that lame check-down $hite.
