Oct. 21: Argonauts at Stampeders

**PullTogether73** · 10-19-2016, 04:46 PM

Like lambs to the slaughter.

Well, someone is going to post here that the Stampeders have nothing for which to play and are therefore vulnerable.
Possibly.
But do you really think this year's Argonauts will take advantage of that? Really?

You know that the Argos record since you've started creating game threads has been pretty deplorable don't you?

Crap! That never occurred to me, but you're right!
Um, perhaps you should resume doing these.

Tbh, the game threads were one thing Tbone was good at around here.

Agreed.

After the past month of blowouts, I question myself as to why I am staying up late to watch this game. Usually I get excited on game days, but not lately.

Nah, they'll still be trying for a 16 win season.

Instead, we'll win by getting a really lucky multi-touchdown lead in the first quarter, and playing with some inspiration for a change!

Isn't it Ravi's job to be uber positive ?

**Wobbler** · 10-19-2016, 07:35 PM

He hasn't been as optimistic lately, so I thought I'd pick up some of the slack.

Maybe Calgary will be resting players? That's all I have.

**argotom** · 10-20-2016, 12:41 PM

After everything we have been through this horrible season and with the multi injuries, the team will start Ray in Calgary?
We are out of the playoffs what is that going to prove.
I previously suggested giving the other QB's a chance.
Since Willy started the last game, was bad and in my mind again failed his exams, I would start Dan this game and then Kilgore the last.
These are the crucial auditions for next year.
However I hope that I am wrong, but if by whatever stretch SM and JB are back, then Ray having pictures on the two will be again be anointed a QB of the future and will come back?
Einstein was right about insanity as it applies to this team.

Well technically we're not out of the playoffs yet. If we win both games and Hamilton loses their remaining 3 games then we're in. Yes I know that's not going to happen but that is probably what they're thinking / their justification.

If Hamilton is kind enough to lose their remaining games, we won't even need to win both of ours; a win and a tie would be fine! (heh heh)

Seriously though, I haven't quite given up yet. Hamilton has been terrible lately, and it's possible that the return of our best QB will make a big difference.

I'd rather start Kilgore just to see if he's learned. Everyone knows what LeFevour is, so I'm not sure what starting him now would actually accomplish, but I'm not opposed to him playing if Kilgore struggles again. The season is essentially over, and I really don't understand why Milanovich is wasting time with Ray.

If Ray is injured I would not be at all surprised.

Just a reminder that this game will start at 9 pm EDT with the first hour of the game available only on TSN1. The Hamilton/Ottawa game will overlap the start of this game by an hour. TSN3, 4 (the local TSN in southern Ontario), and 5 will all be covering the Ticats game and joining the Argos/Stamps game in progress at approx. 10 pm EDT.

Will the return of Ray all of a sudden help the front 4 stop the run or help the DB's cover receivers? Or help the ST's not allow a returner to simply run a straight line for a long TD? LOL!

**Scooter McCray** · 10-21-2016, 07:29 AM

Even with diminishing skills with age it is apparent Ray is much better than all of our QB options. He still needs to be a part of this team as a veteran backup to mentor a young star. That star has to be found as he is currently not on the roster.
