I really don't know whether there is anything to do with this game or not. Smilin' Hank came back for the Stamps last week and picked up an incredibly impressive performance, which put the Bombers in a sticky spot these next couple weeks with Toronto breathing down their throats and Montreal not that far behind. And considering that the Bombers play BOTH Toronto and Montreal in the last two weeks of the season, they really need this game, because losing to either one at that point could be fatal and force the Bombers to play two games to reach the Grey Cup... or worse... have to play two ROAD games to reach the Grey Cup. As for the Stamps... it looks like the road is going to be difficult, having to win in Saskatchewan and in BC to reach the Grey Cup, and with Edmonton 4 pts behind, have a bit of a cushion to work with (and if memory serves me, they won the season series).
Motivation is a large factor tonight in my eyes, but I really can't pick a side in this game. Does anybody have any better thoughts than these?
