The teams are set, who will win?

I'd put my money on Calgyra because I think the Stampeders are just better throughout the line up. but I`m hoping for an upset ... Go Tiger Cats

Expecting Calgary to win. Would not be dissappointed with either team winning....

I hope the CFL fans, especially you folks who've bought tickets, are the big winners with a solid, entertaining championship game. I DID go to the 2011 Grey Cup and it was THE BEST GAME I've EVER BEEN TO, from a lifetime experience point of view. I mean getting to see my home team win the championship game right before me and many fellow Lions fans? Couldn't beat it.

But honestly, it was not an amazing football game, IMO. Complete boring game? No of course not. All I'm saying is I've seen more exciting games from a football perspective than the 2011 Grey Cup. In fact the 2011 Vanier Cup, which I also watched in stadium, was a far better football game, IMO.

So, I hope you in stadium (and us too on TV) get to see a classic, exciting Grey Cup game..........

Calgary is clearly the best team in the league this season, and for that reason I am cheering for the Stamps as I like the champ to be the team that truly deserves it.

If Cgy wins it would mean that

we were eliminated by the team

who were eliminated by the team

who were eliminated by the team

who won the Grey Cup. :dizzy:

... which would probably be an accurate reflection of where our team as a whole sits on the CFL landscape in 2014.
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

According to the Chinese zodiac, this is the Year of the Horse so therefore, it should help and bring good luck to the Calgary Stampeders.

Unfortunately, it didn't help out at all their NFL counterpart that also uses a horse in their logo, the Denver Broncos.
祝加拿大加式足球聯賽不列颠哥伦比亚卑詩雄獅隊今年贏格雷杯冠軍。此外祝溫哥華加人隊贏總統獎座·卡雲斯·甘保杯·史丹利盃。還每年祝溫哥華白頭浪隊贏美國足球大联盟杯。不要忘記每年祝溫哥華巨人贏西部冰球聯盟冠軍。
改建後的卑詩體育館於二十十一年九月三十日重新對外開放,首場體育活動為同日舉行的加拿大足球聯賽賽事,由主場的卑詩雄獅隊以三十三比二十四擊敗愛民頓愛斯基摩人隊。
祝你龍年行大運。
恭喜西雅图海鹰直到第四十八屆超級盃最終四十三比八大勝曾拿下兩次超級盃冠軍的丹佛野馬拿下隊史第一個超級盃冠軍。

They play that game when the Lions are eliminated? Really? Huh. Who knew. I just assumed the season ended.

The Stamps have been the best all season, they have protected both Mitchell and Cornish and have Rick Stubler and Dave Dickenson...they will be TOUGH to beat...the good news for HAM is that Steinhauer has got their D playing well, even without a lot of pressure, so if Collaros gets hot they have a chance, especially with their S Ts...but I think HAM might still be a year away with Collaros...should be a good game.

I think the CGY wins, Huff retires and DD becomes HC in CGY.

That would be the best outcome. Calgary to win, Huf move upstairs and hire DD as head coach, finally putting an end to speculation about him coming back to coach the Lions.

Stamps can afford for a cylinder or two to go down to injury during the game, Hamilton not so much. Stamps depth and National talent allow them to park the Grey Cup in Calgary for a year. That said, I am with the group that wants Hamilton to win, keep it in the cat family.
