The Argos did snatch defeat from the jaws of victory … down by 1, on your own 20, 1:20 to go, it’s 3rd and 7, and you gamble?!? They had time to punt the ball and force the Als to go 2-and-out. Maybe Montreal would have been able to pick up a first down and kill the clock, but Toronto’s D is strong, and they should have at least been given the CHANCE to win the ball back, in field position to put a drive together to take you into FG range, kick a FG and win it 23-21.
Unfortunately I only saw up to the last bit of the 2nd Q, and I only saw the last 2:00 of the 4th Q after that, so I don’t know what toronto did (or didn’t do) before they made that 3rd & 7 gamble, but I think they took themselves out of the game by making that gamble. If that gamble fails, the other team is already in FG range, to make it a 4-pt game. Bad play calling, IMHO.
38,000+? Great crowd! That’s awesome, good job Toronto.
...congrats. ALS.....nice win....Montreal looked like the successful team of the past...and are going to be tough against any opponent vying for the cup...good game... :thup:
I fell asleep watching this game midway through the 3rd Quarter. It wasnt the prettiest of games, but I missed a comeback by the Als. The last thing I remember seeing was Mark Lee and Walby on the screen talking about what both teams needed to do in the second half. As I watching, I thought Walby looked like the cowardly Lion from the Wizard of Oz, my mind wanders when I get sleepy.. :lol: :lol:
....sambo....you mean to say that thunderous noise from the Argos fans couldn't keep you awake...i know it kept me into the game... :lol:...give me the small parks anytime,,,they're a lot more livelier..... :rockin: :rockin:
I get to predict the Lions /Bombers game. I say the Lions have nothing to play for so the Blue will win. They won't look good doing it, but that is going to mislead you all into thinking they aren't ready for the playoffs.
The real truth is that the Bombers are sick and tired, frustrated and angry about the lack of respect they receive. Listen to Matt Dunigan and watch how a real dynasty is begun. May the best TEAM win!
