Joseph picked-off…32-19 Lions are in control after FG by McCallum
Joseph: 6-23 -143 yards [1 pick-off] 7 sacks…TD Lions - now in the lead 39-19 as I type.
Do you recall which section you were sitting in? There was a guy in his 50s (I’m guessing) wearing a Bomber jersey a few rows in front of me. I assume it was you? There couldn’t be more than one Bomber fan in the building, and a really young guy wouldn’t know Kenny Ploen.
I hated to see such a poorly coached game from the Eskimo's but not too upset with the outcome. The Eskimo loss helps to insure that they get the cross-over which IMO is a far easier route to the Grey Cup and it is the only chance for the Canadian Dream, an all Alberta Grey Cup!
If Edmonton gets the cross over they should be the favourite to come out of the east. Hamilton is too defensively inept, the Als are to beat up and the Argos are just plain inept in every way. Calgary would have the tougher road, but not impossible. BC has to be the favourite to win it all right now.
The Lions are definitely the best team in the League. Their defence is the best. They have depth-QB,WR and DL- and good Non-imports. Long way to go,yet, but I can't see any other team from the West in the Grey Cup,other than the Lions.-unless a cross-over and 2 teams from West could compete for the Cup.
