      Go Als,

      not that I perticularly root for them the rest of the year. But underdogs for the win.

        Who should I root for and why? Come on... make your cases!

          Montreal lost a heartbreacker in last years Grey Cup. They started this season off on a tear (7 and 0) and then tanked, ending up 10 and 8.

          BC had some problems last year with player controversies at QB. They lost in the playoffs. This year they've been ripping up everything in front of them going 13 and 5. The controversies are over and starter Dave Dickenson has been the clear number 1.

          It's sort of David vs Goliath the way the teams went in the season. Montreal being the underdog makes me like them in this game. I also think Al's QB Anthony Calvillo has 'earned' a win.

            You might also look at the rosters and see if any of the players are from your favoured college. A majority of the players come from US colleges.

                Geroy Simon is a monster. Three different quarterbacks and he still ended up with 1856 yards and 15 TDs.

                Teh Lions shall win.

                  It's on most of the comcast network, along with a few others. There's a list on the CFL website.

                      I get CSN Midatlantic and they're not broadcasting the Grey Cup today. They might be showing it at some later time.

                        They're showing it tomorrow at noon.

                        Instead of the grey cup today they're showing SportsNite and a replay of a college football game.

                          CSS? My on screen guide doesn't show them showing it... just a replay of a college football game from yesterday .
