    EAST DIVISION FINAL GAME THREAD / Nov 19 / Saskatchewan @ Toronto

    against @

    I think we can expect a healthy crowd, which is great! The Riders are a good team, but it looked to me like they were a bit fortunate in the ESF game; Ottawa played poorly.

    Here we go!!!!!!!! Argos D will be better than the Redblacks but the Riders can be dangerous (remember last game we played them?). Happy for the bye week to have players get healed up and rested. After 2 close losses during the season, the Argos are due for the win. Should be fun!

    I felt they got a little lucky in both of their victories over us this season. Looking forward to getting some revenge.

    The Argos can't allow Glenn to sit in the pocket waiting for a receiver to open up as Ottawa did by rushing only three for most of the game or they may suffer the same fate as the RedBlacks.

    The Argo defence was as beaten up as ever the last time these two teams played. The Argos were without Bear Woods, Marcus Ball, and Shawn Lemon among others.
    Chad Kelly + Dan Adeboboye + David Ungerer + Damonte Coxie + DaVaris Daniels + Dejon Brissett = Unstoppable Force

    I am thinking 21,000 watch the Argos win by 24-21; an Edmonton-Argo Grey Cup (Ray vs. Reilly. A Battle of the MOP's).

    "Karnac the (almost) Magnificent"

    Enjoy the win everyone. I thought when Christion Jones scored on the return, that it was a blessing in disguise. It left just about the right amount of time on the board for Ricky to get it done. And, he did.

    IIRC there were also a couple of questionable calls that went against us in the game in Saskatchewan.

    Still a fair number of tickets left. Mostly upper deck on both sides. Don't mind Rider fans helping fill the place, but we can't let them take away home field advantage. Given our edge at QB and on D I like our chances against a well-coached team.

    Is a Torontonian that cheers for their hometown Saskatchewan vs the Argos the same as a transplanted Canadian that cheers for their home country Honduras vs Canada in soccer? I mean, it’s Toronto or Ontario that has given them their nice car/condo/job and the reason they left Regina with much less opportunities.

    I just moved to Hamilton, should I start cheering for the Ti-Cats when they play the Argos? Lol not going to happen.

    Agreed. By that logic we should cheer for the leafs which would just be gross!

    Yes. And both should be welcomed to this exciting playoff game!

    Marcus Thigpen gives Saskatchewan a dangerous running game. A fine replacement for the injured Trent Richardson.

    A superior replacement for Richardson.

    With grey cup tickets in hand as well, I’m already nervous for this one, and because I think we have a very strong shot at winning and if we get to the GC, who knows.

    I never felt this nerve last year or in the past few years because it was obvious we didn’t have anywhere close to “it”

    This time just might!

    Anyhow definitely going to be a few nights where my sleep is affected this week! Such is life. I think we have the team, keep those f&$*ing penalties down though!!

    Also I have no concerns about saskie fans there – bring ‘em on who cares the more the merrier. Argo fans have shown the volume this year IMO!!

    We are winning this game. Not a doubt in my mind. Sask is good, but we are better.

    Reading your confident post does not reassure me. I will be a basket case all week.
