    GAME THREAD: Bombers vs. Hamilton

    Hamilton has one thing going for it; Winnipeg is the second most scored upon team in the league. Unfortunately (or fortunately for all you Tiger Cat haters) Hamilton has given up the most points and scored the fewest in the league. Edge: Winnipeg.

    I've underestimated the Bombers all season.
    I'm taking them in CFL Pick'em.

    Plus, I'd love to see the Pussy-Cats' misery continue.

    So far it looks like football has a goddess when it comes to Hamilton. And a jealous one at that who doesn't like one praying to the gods.

    Tonights game and the pathetic East division, again for the second year running, I am afraid is the reason for a one division league.

    One division league will kill the CFL.
    You have only west teams in the playoffs for a couple years straight, what kind of fan base in this half of the country will support the advertising dollars needed for TV and also for sponsorship ?
    The CFL needs east and west ..... Plus who doesn't like cheering for the underdog?

    The Ticats have become a bad football team. It is amazing to see their quick downfall in such a short time although something similar happened to our Argos last year.

    The way things are going, I fully expect the Ticats will be looking for their first win on Labour Day. That's a trap game for the Argos if there ever was one.

    BTW, I didn't watch too much of the game, but for the part I watched, it sure seemed as if the east side of the stadium was at best half full. Crowd announced at 23k+, which is close to a sellout. Are Ticats STHs already giving up on the season?

    I was thinking the same thing. Another reason the Argos really have to beat Montreal on Saturday.

    I remember many seasons in the last 40 years, where an Argo team with a much better record would get beaten badly in the Labour Day classic.
    I am also concerned about a terrible seasonal record potentially putting the Ticats in the same position as the Argos with regards tolong-term attendance decline, especially after Bob Young has made such a herculean effort to rebuild the Hamilton fan base.

    If Hamilton loses to Ottawa on Friday their season will be over. I could see them fold the tent against the Argos on Labour Day which would be unacceptable to their fan base. At that point dramatic changes begin. Now if they beat Ottawa than I could see them give the Argos a helluva game and win.
    GO ARGOS!!!

    I don't care if Hamilton gets blown out by Ottawa -- there is no chance they fold their tent on Labour Day.

    I have a feeling that the Argos are in for more than they can handle on Labour Day.
