Of the 4 possible Grey Cup matches that could have resulted from Saturday’s Divisional Finals games, the one we got was the 4th worst. Obviously I prefer any Grey Cup matchup without Winnipeg (damn you BC) and if I had to endure Winnipeg in another freakin’ Cup then I at least hoped they would play Toronto so we could get best on best. Seems Dinwiddie’s eyes not only suck the souls out of people but also manage to infuse that suck back in his team. So here I am reduced to cheering for a team led by Danny Maccioccia and Jason Maas. At least Hamilton is giving us a decent half time act. If I had to watch this matchup and listen to a halftime act featuring 3 random moderately notable country acts they threw together at the last minute… well I would just snap.
Random thoughts:
-
Toronto
looked like a team that just assumed by showing up they would win the game.
Montreal looked like a team that knew they had to put in effort.
-
I
haven’t seen that many turnovers since that playoff game Michael Bishop started
for the Riders.
-
I
have no ill will towards Cody and would be perfectly fine with him winning a
ring but I had to shake my head when he talked about playing well in all 3
phases to win. Dude, you played great in 2 phases and the offense was just
along for the ride literally doing the bear minimum required not to screw
things up.
-
I
have this horrible feeling that the Grey Cup will just be Winnipeg sacking
Fajardo over and over again until they institute a mercy rule. They massacred
Vernon Adams and its not like Fajardo is famous for his efficient play in the
pocket… or his postseason success against Winnipeg.
-
Please
let Winnipeg lose a second Grey Cup to an inferior team. It’s the only thing
that can help ease the pain of another failed Rider season.

Speaking
of the Riders, Nick Marshall was arrested for gun possession. So I guess he may
end up putting the lockdown in lockdown corner. He probably wasn’t going to be
brought back anyway but this likely seals it.
I’ll be back Monday with Grey Cup thoughts and the world famous Rider Prophet Awards.

Cheering for Montreal feels bad, but we can always dream of Winnipeg losing on a last second field goal after taking a too many men penalty.
That's the dream
