Game Thread: Argos @ Montreal Thursday July 17 - 7:30 PM

[Unplayable]

The football gods have been pretty even keel on the Argos over the years. How one thinks they have been treated is likely coloured by how long the person has been an Argo fan. For me it has been since the early 1950s.
Since 1958 they have had something like 33 loosing seasons, with the longest stretch being 8 years from 1974 to 1981, and that includes the 2 win season in 1981.
They have had about the same number of winning seasons, as long as you count the 5 seasons or so when their record was even. The longest winning season stretch was 2003 to 2007 although they will match that this year if they have a winning season.
If you have been a fan since 2000, you have seen more winning seasons than loosing ones (14 to 10).
A couple of times they have had 4 years of winning seasons before a loosing one.
So one could predict that after 4 winning seasons, it wouldn’t be a surprise if the current one is not going to be successful, winning season wise.

Back on topic, I see a huge boost from Parrish, McManus and McMahon coming back, the D gets to a rusty Alexander, and we squeak out a close one.

I am pretty sure that Dinwiddie's record coming off a bye week is quite good. He will have this team ready to play tonight.

Difference tonight is that the opponent is also coming off a bye week. We can't even benefit from that.

And the Alouettes have their starting QB returning tonight.

Don't have a good feeling about this one. Unless Alexander has a Cody Fajardo turnover machine type of moment like in the East Final, this one might get ugly.

The Argos were up 25-7 at one point, and now it's 25-20 in the 4th.

Got to have this game.

In a word: disgraceful.

what an entertaining game, so many CRAZY plays. Shows me there is no dominant team in the CFL this year. Every team has multiple weaknesses, but ultimately there are weak sisters in Ottawa, Toronto and Edmonton.

Fucking shameful.

[argosrule1524]

Lol this team is done

[Will]

Fucking atrocious.

Where is Chad Kelly? The world wonders.
