Grey Cup Fever
Who do you the will win B.C or Toronto my pick Toronto.We just have
I hope its not Toronto.... I love Pinball Clemons, but this city is jumping on a wagon as usual cus there's no hockey. And we'll never hear the end of it. I just want to watch a great football game. Good Luck to both teams. I miss my ALS.
Here you go Les,A little something I dug up on the net.Since the inception of the trophy a team from Toronto has won it on 21 occasions, while Hamilton won it 15 times, Edmonton 11 times including a record five times consecutively in the 1980s. Winnipeg has brought home the trophy 10 times, Ottawa nine, and Montreal six. The Calgary Stampeders have won it four times, while the B.C. Lions have won it three occasions. The Queens University Golden Gaels won the Grey Cup in three consecutive years in the 1920s, while a team from Sarnia, Ontario, and the Saskatchewan Roughriders has won the CFL Championship on two occasions. The Baltimore Stallions were the first and only U.S. based team to win the Canadian Football League Championship.*The Grey Cup has been stolen several times, supposedly thrown in a lake and passed around many Baltimore homes after the Stallions brought the Grey back to the USA in 1995!
Your absolutely right Bob ......there was a few teams there that I hadn't read known about before.....Baltimore was once and became again the alouttes ..... Thanks for that info........I think Baltimore was in the final twice winning it once (95, as you mentioned ) .........Ok now try to find the info on the NFL vs CFL ......I think they did this a few times , perhjaps as an experiment,or just exhibiton........but I seem to Remember a Hamilton team playing an American team...(or at least I heard of it )
