They came into McMahon on Labour Day a couple years ago as a wounded entity and took a W from the stamps, and the horsies were actually not bad then…they’ll probably repeat that feat…
Earlier I guessed that Elks would be O / 5 then wins game. Now, I guess Elks should, maybe win game number 17 or 18 when teams rest their starting lineup. A new Edmonton record of 1 and 17.
I feel your pain… My riders once had back to back 2 win seasons… one bright spot was one of those wins was vs the Evil Empire when they were hands down the best ever teams feilded ever in the CFL
Well as a Cat fan I lived thru what we fans in the Hammer like to call the dark era from 2003-2008 . Try living thru a 6 year span and remaining a loyal fan when the team had 5 of those 6 seasons see records of 1-17 , 3-15 , 3-15 , 4-14 , 5-13 . The only season in that stretch that was somewhat decent was in 2004 when they posted a 9-8-1 mark and actually made the playoffs only to get bounced out rather quickly in the ESF .

I am not superstitious, ( for the most part), but weird, strange, funny & stupid stuff are happening to Elks that would not be inflicted upon Eskies. Is there a curse, a voodoo spell, or mad wizard at work?? Of course, inept GM and HC after Hervey/Jones were exceptionally bad but this streak is beyond belief. Maybe some witch doctors, or exorcist, or fortune teller could help?? NOTHING else is working.
