Fool me once....Stampeders Blow it Again
Nothing better for civic pride than the local sports squadron winning a Championship.
For the second in as many years, the Calgary Stampeders literally tore defeat from the hands of victory in the last minute of the Championship game. These guys aren't closers. They aren't winners. THey aren't a 'dynasty'. The CFL is so small, that you can dominate regular season play as the Stamps have done, and never win the Grey Cup. Nobody celebrates runner up. DOn't know what that team does to improve, but they need some big game players that won't fold when all the marbles are laid out. Coaching too was suspect. TWICE folks. There's no sports analogy that I can think of that's similar to the debacle! Oh well. Luckily, the city moves on quite well.
P.S. I'm a fan of not having a Grey Cup game in the middle of Winter. Just me?
