CFL Conference finals today

[crazed 9.6]

Eastern Conference finals has Ottawa playing Edmonton.
Do not even ask why Edmonton is playing in the Eastern finals..... it is snafu !
But if Edmonton wins then they will prolly play Calgary. First time in CFL history that two alberta teams would be playing for all the marbles, the Grey Cup !!
Calgary and BC will be kicking off in about an hour.

but woes me
Edmonton is trailing at half time

Perhaps the snow has something to do with it
and lots of it !!

Really...snow! That can throw anybody's game out of whack.

Ottawa just got another TD and 2 point convert
Puts it @ 25 to 3 for Ottawa !!!

Lots of snow.
Hard to get to a long pass in this game
Hard to block, hard to pass, hard to do anything

We are in the 3rd quater

 

[crazed 9.6]

lmao, Eskimos just had a big run to the 5 yard line !
It was more like a push and slide type thing.
But hey, we will take it
And a TD !!!!!


added...


and now Eskies get a turn-over !!

1st down Edmonton

 

[ilan]

Ah, yes, TSN 1. What a mess! 25 - 10, though...catching up.

Slip sliding away...

that was their 3rd straight drive with a TD to start it and one more to add

 

[ilan]

Damn! Needed the two points...

 

[crazed 9.6]

I just do not like that Ottawa Redblack a #27

 

[crazed 9.6]

I told yea !!!!

I really , reeeeallly hate that #27 !!!!!!

 

[ilan]

Sorry about the outcome, buddy...but they did forge a decent comeback. It was just a little to little and a little too late.

 

[crazed 9.6]

thnx ilan, you are right too.

in the end, Ottawa won that game in good form

 

[crazed 9.6]

Grey Cup in progress

In 2nd quarter
Calgary 7
Ottawa 10

Didn't see your message yesterday or I would have squeezed in some watching along with the NFL games. I see Ottawa prevailed. Are you happy with that outcome?

 

[crazed 9.6]

yea, Ottawa deserved the Championship
They are relatively a new team. The old Ottawa team folded up 10 years ago or so. They had won their last Grey Cup over 40 years ago.
The QB for Ottawa just about did not play because of a knee injury, but he suited up and played one of his best games ever.

Calgary was trailing by maybe close to 30 points at one point. Calgary came back late in the game and tied it up , it went into overtime.

Great game, and Ottawa are the Grey Cup Champions

 

[ilan]

Cool... Always nice to see a deserving team take home the marbles!

I was reading that some of those players will be playing in the NFL next year, sounded like it was a good game.

The QB prolly not, he is a bit on the older side of life
He still is fantastic at his job thou !!

dacfootball--what would be the problem with visiting/posting on the Frontier Board? It is a foregone conclusion I hope that the Bluehawks will be full conference members in the not too distant future.
