Just preparing to attend the final game of the season tonight. We will have to bundle up - it is going to be a chilly night at THF.
The Tiger-Cats enter tonight's game with a record of 14 - 3, and have already clinched first place in the East. They are absolutely dominating this year; they have the #1 rated Offence in the CFL. And they have the #1 rated Defence in the CFL.
Coach Steinauer has made the somewhat controversial decision to sit Jeremiah Masoli and a few others for this game, in spite of the fact that Masoli's 6,095 yards passing in 2020 leaves him 130 yards shy of Kent Austen for second most passing yards in a single season. And Jeremiah has only started 15 games, since he missed the first 2 games of the season !! Nonetheless, Dane Evans gets the start tonight against the BC Lions. What do you think of that ??
Go 'Cats !!!
. . . what might have been, were it not for the Coronavirus pandemic !!
This would have been a hell of a great season. Of course we get a pandemic when the Cats have a stacked team. Around 2007 would have been a better time for a pandemic as far as Ti-Cats football is concerned.
I believe it was traditional for him to invite the entire Lions team to his Burlington home for dinner whenever they played in Hamilton or Toronto. This year (sans COVID) I am sure one or two would have been his pall bearers.
