I don't think it will be much of a game honestly. The Esks will lose, again, and the Riders can get an ego boost (not that some fans need one mind you) heading into the playoffs by kicking last place heinie.
Remember we ALL did our part in putting them away.
And did you see how furiously Danny M was chewing his gum toward the end of the game last night ? :lol:
Danny M will be back next year as head coach though. I read an article somewhere that was stating that there is no need to change coaches, as it would just move the Esks another step backward.
I don't know if he will be back...but I doubt it is a done deal that he won't be.
Mid-season is always a lousy time to assess how well a coach has or hasn't done his job.
Personally, I think he has done a good job with what he had this year.
I think people underestimate how lousy the Esks were last year, and how many changes they made this year.
Now the teams are finally on a LEVEL playing field aka Salary Cap...The Evil Empire is DEAD...please..please bring MacChipmunk back just so the Schmoes can experience over and over what losing feels like.
You might be thankfull that you did not lose your starting QB. I can't to see what enjoyment one might get watching a team beating up on another playing out the string.
Oh! the pain you will endure should your team falter in the second part of the season and that's a posibility many fail to acknowledge.
Your kidding right? 19 years without a home playoff game...18 years without a Grey cup...10 years without a Grey Cup appearance... you could stick pins & needles in our arms we feel no pain... so let us revel in the fact we can stick a nail in a Schmoe coffin.
A team that has not felt much pain in the last 34 years
