BC Lions Win 99th Grey Cup Against Winnipeg Blue Bombers

Ro Stamps — Wed, 30 Nov 2011 18:54:39 +0000

The storybook ending for the likes of Doug Brown, playing perhaps his last game as a Bomber, didn't pan out as he'd like it. On the other side of the ball DE Brent Johnson may have played his last game, and if that's the case he'll go out a Grey Cup winner. The Bombers lost [...]

Monreal Alouettes Hand Lowly Riders Another Beating: 21-18

Ro Stamps — Mon, 29 Nov 2010 07:11:24 +0000

For a CFL Grey Cup this one was pretty boring. Lacking pozzaz, offence, a decent halftime show that people under 50 could appreciate. Thankfully the better team won, but it was still close. Close that is until Darian Durant gave it all away. Anytime Rider fans want to chant 'Henry, Henry, Henry', just remember that [...]

Game Fixing? Lopsided Officiating in CFL West Final Raises Eyebrows

Ro Stamps — Mon, 22 Nov 2010 01:06:34 +0000

Some of the worst officiating in recent memory in a playoff game was experienced in the West division final between Calgary and Saskatchewan. Incredibly, time after time head scratching calls were made against the home team in favour of the more popular visiting squad. Alas, you have to wonder what went on in this game [...]

Stop the Milt Stegall Lunacy

Ro Stamps — Sat, 18 Sep 2010 02:47:43 +0000

Milt Stegall was a great receiver, but he's a horrible TV analyst. This post is a running collection of lame, hilarious, embarrassing, and stupid quotes and thoughts the dude makes on TV. I'm not sure why he keeps getting the invite back, cause he's making TSN look bad. Some of his insights are astute, but [...]

Ro Stamps — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 15:58:54 +0000

Around in the NFL for quite some time now, the CFL has now implemented technology that will allow QBs to hear play calls in their helmets (assuming they aren't hit so hard the technology goes bonkers....) The CFL made the announcement today: http://www.cfl.ca/article/cfl-introduces-qb-wireless-headsets. How it works is pretty interesting. It's one way communicae, and it [...]

CFL Wants Your Input on Overtime Rule Changes

Ro Stamps — Sun, 31 Jan 2010 15:51:53 +0000

The cool thing about the CFL that you do'nt find in any other professional league is the input fans get to impact rules. The CFL last year asked fans to offer suggestions on various aspects like kick off returns, safeties, and more. This year they are going to do the same and request fans give [...]

Calgary Stampeders Brass Statement on Blackout

Ro Stamps — Sat, 17 Oct 2009 23:22:13 +0000

Stamps Ownership Add Seats Counting them For Blackout Verdict? Unprofessional. This is a type of summer intern gaff that we expect under the Feterik regime, not today. In a previous post game post you can read my thoughts on why the Stampeders may have made the call. Here were my options: Turns out the answer [...]

Ro Stamps — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 17:07:47 +0000

The 2009 Grey Cup ticket prices, to be held in Calgary next November, were released . Somewhat comparable to other Grey Cup events (Montreal had cheaper tickets but they also had 25000 more seats) the ticket prices in some cases have increased 300%.
