Game Thread: Toronto Argonauts @ Montreal Alouettes

[Argos1983]

Can we somehow steal a game please ?

[Argos1983]

No turnover, no chance….up to the defence at this point….

[jerrym]

Coxie makes another great catch, this time for a TD.

[Argos1983]

Heck of a catch there by Coxie !

[jerrym]

Ryan Hunter joins the long list of dumb ass penalties in this game putting the KO near the goal line, if these penalties don't cost them this game, they will later in the season if they don't change.

What you got, defense??? Up 7 with 5 minutes to go.... can they show up???

Narrator: They would, in fact, NOT show up.

[dmont]

Orimolade has had a $hitty game.

[jerrym]

And the Hunter penalty helps the Als get the tying TD.

[TrueBlueGuy]

yup, but what a smart call by Maas, the Als are playing a terrific game, Argos are doing well EXCEPT for the damn penalties. Great CFL entertainment!

[Argos1983]

Just a horrendous game all around - and yet someone gets a huge win tonight and style points don’t matter - last year a missed PAT early in the year played a huge role in getting us first in the East.

And then Jonathan Jones gets ejected for his second game misconduct. If this totally unnecessary penalty-filled play doesn't get corrected, the Argos will somewhere along the line, quite likely in the playoffs when you are playing the better teams and have no chance for a second chance, will pay dearly. A player (there is a wide choice of who for this) should be benched for at least one game as a message to others.

[jerrym]

DUIII TD! That does not change my opinion on my last post. The trouble when you win with so many players playing so sloppily, is teams tend to keep on trying to win doing the same thing and end up paying for it.

[Argos1983]

Yay !

Followed by Yeesh!

[dmont]

I can't believe this game. For once, the offense bails out the defense.

[dmont]

Oh $hit, not over yet.

[Argos1983]

Huge win !! No style points…..just get the win….

Now if they win one of the two vs Montreal in September things look very good.

YES, agreed. This is the best CFL game to date that I have watched in 2023. Argos have a lot to "clean up" as Kelly just said, but we have the talent to stay on top. Yes I do remember the 4-and-Oh 1983 Argos with Holloway, Barnes, Greer et al. Fourty years? man never would have believed it would take 40 years to do it again. GO ARGOS!!

i can't believe that it has been 40 years myself. It feels like only yesterday.

tonite I'm thinking about the 30th anniversary reunion event, in 2013 at the Dome of the 1983 Argos. Great turnout of the guys, and Dennis Meyer and Obie himself representing the coaches. Got a ton of autographs that day. Carinci, Ferrone, Bronk, Brazley, Barnes, Ilesic, Holloway and Obie. And met Mr. Woods for the 1st time! a cherished team, a cherished memory...thank you Argos. ARGOS RULE!
