I don't know how anyone can say he was bad at the beginning of the season. The 3 touches a game he was getting can't paint any type of picture as to how good or bad he was. Personally I think the Argos made him prove that he deserved the chance and he has really taken off since then.
It's us vs the rest of the country
The decision by Ricky Ray on the INT looked much worse in the stadium than it did watching the replay. Tristan O simply made an excellent play.

I'm the only one on this forum with the sad face today. I had to work yesterday and forgot to PVR the game. Hopefully TSN will replay it sometime during the week so I can see what you guys are talking about.
Also, Argo57, while we are all cheering for an Ottawa loss next week (I can never say a Hamilton win) your oskee-wee-wee was way over the top. Say it again and I'll be forced to wash your mouth out with soap.
Statistically, going for it on third down opens up 50% more offensive scoring opportunities in the. CFL. I believe it's Trestman unwavering confidence in Ricky Ray has led to this new development. Also, red zone production has been a problem for the 2017 Argos. I am all for this new development. Great problem solving development by a football genius!
I saw something similar on 60 Minutes about a football coach who never punts.
The highly successful high school coach who never punts has another radical idea. Kevin Kelley, the head football coach at Pulaski Academy in Arkansas, has gained renown in recent years for his gonzo football philosophy. He is the coach who almost never punts and almost always kicks onside after scores.

Good game by the team.
Wilder is quickly becoming my favourite Argo, not even so much for what he does on the field, but what he does off it. Ray played well minus the interception imo. Anyone else notice how much the line has improved since Himebauch was brought in ?
TBH, my only disappointment yesterday was the smallish crowd. Fighting for first place, with a relatively entertaining team, and likeable players - one would think that would lead to more butts in seats.
After the first bye week. It is actually a night and day difference. I was wondering if he was an athlete that was all for show as he couldn't break any tackles and seemed scared of contact. Now he relishes it and makes huge gains after first contact. Home cooking or newly motivated after being with family or, as you said, got comfortable with the game.
Did the team do anything different for Fan Appreciation Day yesterday ?
I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.
The only things different I noticed and it was minor was a thank you fans near the end of the game on the scoreboard monitor...which is more than last year. Maybe a few extra givaways during the game.
On the way out they were giving out football shaped 'piggy banks' with the World Financial Group sponsor on them. Doubt I'll use them but they'll be nice desk ornaments.
