Just what this team needs right now. A road trip. Get out of town, do some bonding with team mates, and play an opponent who is beatable but strutting around like their the cock of the walk after beating the smoked meat out of Montreal last week. This Argos team still has fight in it, and championship pedigree. Thats why they've been in every game. However its time they prove to themselves that they can win the close ones.

That was an excellent opener. Well done!

The depth chart is up:

- Coxie is a game time decision
- Kemp in for Moore at LT
- Dozier at SAM
- Milton out of lineup, Bratton starts at his spot, McFadden to field halfback and Edouard starts at field corner.

watching on TSN but listening to 1050. Mike H. talked about the world cup plan in pre game... kind of feel sorry for the people in the ARGO trenches who have to deal with stuff like this..... I don't think the CFL or any one running the ARGOS deserve any criticism. This is more an owner ship issue or the soccer guys sticking it to us... or both... but thats just the way I look at things. hopefully its a good game ... TSN 1050 coverage is good. Mikes comments I will always respect worth a listen if they are out there on the interweb somewhere.... go ARGOS.

But Pinball seemed enthusiastic about the opportunity to showcase Toronto to the world?
