    True, I thought about that after I wrote, LOL. Ok, $5 rings. Probably what MLSE paid.

    Argos have since tweeted that all gates to Shipyard open at 4, not 3. The comms on this have been erratic, to say the least, starting with town hall where two different numbers of available rings (6,000 and 6,500) were announced. It's still entirely unclear how this is supposed to work and how on earth they could accommodate 6,000 or more people at Stanley Barracks, but I guess we will find out tomorrow. I sure hope this, and the pre-game festivities to raise the banner etc., are done more effectively than this would lead one to believe.

    Nothing I have seen this off season has filled me with confidence in how communications are being handled by this organization, and especially in terms of communication with their STH on any number of issues that have arisen......

    Hey, want a 2012 Grey Cup Champions ring?

    https://byerjewerly.en.alibaba.com/p...1c357623uBwJGF

    Same supplier offers a variety of other rings, including my favourite, a Pittsburgh Penguins "Stanley Crosby" model

    Huh. It looks like Tyms will start after all. I wonder whether Smith got hurt in practice.

    Out: Ford, Plummer and Woodson

    Guessing that Davis and Gaydosh sit.

    At least there is now consistency -- the email that went out said 4pm. Not everyone has access to twitter (myself) so one thing had to be corrected -- either twitter or the email. On the bright side, looking at the projected weather for BMO Field tomorrow, it should stop raining by 4pm.

    It would be inappropriate to say that there is pressure on the Argos in Week 2, but it would be nice to get the win considering that both Hamilton and Ottawa easily handled western opponents.

    Strong showings by the Two-Tones and the Ti-cats! Yes, early days, however...

    At this point I can only remain convinced that the Argos cannot finish fourth in the East.

    Let's see the Argos beat a strong team, in a close-to, or completely, sold-out home game.

    Somewhat true, however seeing other Eastern teams coming to life increases the sense of urgency in getting things going for the Argos.

    Calgary grabs a quick 10-0 lead. I don't think Ray can wait to the second half to get going in the hopes of keeping it close like last week.

    They are just playing so bad, every play making mistakes... ugh.

    Where is Coombs? Is he still on the team?

    Attendance looks decent.

    Memories of the Grey Cup on Ronnie Yell's fumble recovery and large return when things looked so dismal!

    What the heck happened? My TV cut out after the return. How did that not result in points?

    Mishandled snap of FG attempt leaves the Argos with one good play in the whole game.
