Elks: Edmonton Eskimos 2019

[MoontoScott]

They couldn’t have asked for better weather for this game. Above zero and no wind. Pretty nice for a November 25th in Edmonton.

No matter what happens, always pulling for the West. Go Stamps Go.

I was just going to post this as well. This weather is exemplary for Edmonton on Nov 25th.

The weather isnt going to help determine the outcome of this game.

Nope, now the only thing that’s going to determine the outcome is whatever the dumb thing is Calgary ends up doing late in the fourth quarter.

Anyone here going to the game?

Blasphemy!

 

[rboomercat90]

LOL, my cat hates those pre game flybys.

 

[Del Preston]

Bo Levi is getting his interceptions in early this year.

Harris looks pretty bad out of the gate.

Are CFL games 50% commercials?

And Ottawa pulls a Maas. Idiots punting down the middle of the field at the end of the half. I called the return before it happened.

Yeah ridiculous play. Why do that? Last play of the half, just survive the half, my lord that's stupid. The other one was where the Riders blitz 7 players, get caught on a screen, and the Stamps walk it in for a TD.

lol at the great BLM throwing two picks, should be 3, in one more half of GC football.

Without a great team around him Mitchell would be losing this game.

Cant figure out why the footing is such a problem though.
Its has to be the cold...hopefully Ottawa can adjust in the 2nd half.

Whoever installed this fail turf at Commonwealth. Its not even freezing right now and the field is so slippery players can't make plays, getting injured etc. What an awful game and a dismal turf to have installed in a winter city. The players can't even run on this shit without spikes.

Another rant I guess about a teen bob halftime show that would be uber appealing for 14 yr old girls, if any were in attendance...

SO GLAD I didn't waste a dime going to this grey cup

all sporting events are

I just FF through all the commercials after starting to watch the game late. Give it a half hour stagger in each half and you can plow through all the time wasting. I'm perfecting being able to watch a game in just over an hour. For sure no reason to waste time on half time.

Can the CFL just stop with this fullbore attempt that every act has to cater to younger tastes? ANY crumb for the typical CFL fans?

Lots of empty seats. How many Edmonton fans didn't even bother going to the game or couldn't sell tickets?

About the only enjoyable thing about this game is hearing the Mexican play by play. They should show it all that way and I'll just drinking Tequila straight up. Well, with some lime..

Why didn’t Ottawa just punt it out of bounds ???

Why even give Calgary a shot ?

Rick Campbell sucks.

Rick Campbell sucks.

Makes sense .

not when it comes to the stamps

 

[Del Preston]

lol awful

 

[Cloned]

Sinopoli is usually pretty good but that was horrible. Froze on the second down play and didn’t get the first down, then drops the third down pass.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

sloppy game from both teams

looking like a pretty anti-climactic ending here

 

[Cloned]

The Redblacks pulled an Esks tonight.

Not surprised Calgary finally wins though, they were much less arrogant this year.

 

[Del Preston]

Rick Campbell getting to three Grey Cups in four years shows how bad the East is.

 

[Cloned]

Gonna finish watching this one in case something stupid happens.

 

[Del Preston]

That should do it. Ottawa is lucky this wasn't a wipe.

The Stamps are just so much better than every other organization in the league.
