October 17, 2015: Calgary Stampeders vs. Toronto Argonauts

[Neely2005]

From bad to worse when considering the Argos are on ANOTHER SHORT WEEK. They better get favourable scheduling next year from the league.

You would hope but I'm not holding my breath. The league hasn't done the Argonauts any favours when it comes to scheduling our bye weeks in the past.

We might just have to get used to Tims as the Jays look pretty solid right now. As I mentioned once before if we get the Jays winning in long series as well as the other series this could stretch to just before our last scheduled date at the dome. It could be in the cards that we've played our last game at the dome. Wouldn't surprise me with how screwed things have been the last few years.

We'd still have the November game and a probably a playoff game.

Any rainouts in baseball could still screw up the Oct. 30 and Nov. 6 dates. But nothing, as far as I can tell, could screw up a home playoff game which would be played on either Nov. 15 or 22.

Probably there would be no rain-out required, and anyway they are unlikely at Skydome. However, if Jays get to the World Series, there are games scheduled for the American League park on October 28 (game #2) and November 6 ( game #7 if it goes that far). These are both within 48 hours of Argo games and would cause cancellation at Skydome of the BC (Oct 30) and Winnipeg (Nov6) games respectively. Nov 15 and 22 are OK, barring GTT's earthquake or a tornado, paralyzing snow storm, floods, pestilence, etc.

Rainouts could happen at the other ballpark, causing cascading impact on the schedule. So between that and the possibility of a long Jays run into the WS with games scheduled as you indicated, it is entirely possible, if not likely, that we wont be playing at home again before playoffs. Just adds to the team-of-destiny storyline.

I think with all the extra travel dates they now have, it isn't as much of a concern. A travel date would be used up in order to make up a rained out game.
