Also, here is the final roster for the start of the season:

Lemon was suspended for gambling, but he's appealing the suspension. And until the decision is made on the appeal, he is available to play. So that's a big plus for the Als.

Please sticky this, it's earned.

I'll be at the Elks' season opener on Saturday (I'm a season ticket holder) Last year, in addition to the Als game in Edmonton, I also drove down to Calgary to see them and also timed my November trip to Montreal so that I could go to the Eastern Semi-Final versus Hamilton. I might be going to see the Als in Calgary again this season as the game falls on a Saturday. That will be the 3rd time I've made the 3 hour drive to Cowtown to see the Als.

Tough matchup to start the season

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

TD Philpot. 7-3 Als.

What a huge blow already.....week 1. Snead and Stubblefield...disastrous.

Stings a bit, for sure
But still a big win tho, IN Winnipeg

 

[Canadiens Ghost]

Al's win despite being 7.5pts underdogs. They still get no rispekt.

 

[Vachon23]

What a statement win !

Don't know why they were underdogs. Collaros is not that good.

 

[RODTHEBAWD66]

Good game boys!

I love football but the never-ending injuries are easily the most frustrating part of the sport, you're lucky if you can go through a game without losing a key player. Stubblefield is probably done for the year but Snead's injury looked less serious, hopefully a sprain and no fracture.

At least we have good players to replace them, WR and DB are probably the deepest positions on the team.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Hope someone beats the shit out of Purifoy.

CFL is a joke. Determined to make sure the Allouettes don't win.

 

[Adam Michaels]

What a timely TD by Als! Fletcher turned the afterburner.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Fajardo is taking too long to make a pass.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Als are having fun out there. 27-1 with 7:44 still left in the 2nd quarter.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Als up 30-1 heading into half time.

 

[Vachon23]

not a bad start

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Officials will try to get Ottawa back in the game. Gift 7 pts already.

 

[Redux91]

not a bad start

Could be a fun year

 

[Vachon23]

Could be a fun year

It will be a fun one !

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Finally pressure on the Ottawa QB and 2 sacks.

 

[MarkJ]

At least we got the Als.

Is it just me or is Philpot a real gem?
