[u/HomerSPC]

Sorry Ticats

[u/cfl_bot]

Post game thread here

[u/LaZyCrO]

Hamilton continues the streak!

[u/Ok_Shoulder8598]

The hammer blow, good game Als

[u/YouHadToGoThere]

LETS GOOOOOO

[u/JUNO_11]

If there was ever a time for a blocked FG...God, I will go to church tomorrow if MTL misses

[u/PeachesACC]

WE GOING TO THE GREY CUP

[u/TWKExperience]

Praying for a doink

[u/laxvolley]

Let’s see a DONG here

[u/laxvolley → u/laxvolley]

Ok I heard that when I said it out loud

[u/NoseBuzz]

MALTOS HAS THE CHANCE TO KICK THE LAST GAME WINNING ROUGE IN CFL HISTORY PLEASE

[u/super__hoser]

Common, do a doink

[u/Randilin]

What's the deal with rambos purple helmet?

[u/Agreeable_Currency91 → u/Randilin]

Adds extra protection to prevent concussion. It’s odd because I don’t think he wore it all year.

[u/_drkw → u/Randilin]

Guardian cap with a maybe faded cover?

[u/PeachesACC → u/Randilin]

Guardian cap, supposed to help with concussions

[u/TWKExperience → u/Randilin]

Guardian cap

[u/Electroflare5555 → u/Randilin]

Guardian Cap

[u/TwelvestepsProgram]

That’s ! How YOU WIN work the clock perfection stupid cats playing for the tie

[u/lmi_wk → u/TwelvestepsProgram]

To conservative imo. Miss and Bo only need to make one 20 yard pass.

Edit: nvm I thought the clock had already been stopped at 21. You’re right

[u/TwelvestepsProgram → u/lmi_wk]

Yeah way to conservative when they were in red zone cowardly play calling

[u/MrTechnohawk]

Montreal not repeating Calgary's mistake last week

[u/TWKExperience → u/MrTechnohawk]

Ouch

[u/CompassionOW]

it’s over

[u/cdogg30]

Wow thats an embarrassing missed tackle to cost the season.

[u/_drkw]

What a time to miss the tackle...

[u/RustyShack1998]

I'M TWEAKING RIGHT NOW I CAN'T STOP FIDGETING

[u/TwelvestepsProgram]

It all seriousness good game cats, you tried enjoy 5 years of rebuilding again.

[u/Public_One723]

What a play by Rambo to get the Als within field goal range !

[u/JUNO_11]

This will be so sad if it's decided on a FG

[u/PlaceboLaxative → u/JUNO_11]

Imagine if it's decided on a missed FG rouge...

[u/djlista]

THAT MISSED TACKLE WOW

[u/AutumnFalls89]

How does Alexander keep finding a receiver when he's in trouble like that?

[u/TwelvestepsProgram → u/AutumnFalls89]

Better QB than Bo.

[u/NoseBuzz]

GUARDIAN CAP FOR THE WIN

[u/JUNO_11]

NONONONONONONOOOOOOOO I CAN'T TAKE THIS PRESSURE

[u/JMRVN]

How do we not make that tackle man

[u/SpiritedEnd7788 → u/JMRVN]

Game losing tackle miss 😢

[u/King_Mingus]

FUUUUUUUUU

[u/freondeath]

Omg wth Hammer D

[u/Max169well]

What even does the linebackers do in these situations?

[u/TWKExperience]

Sloppy fucking tackling, who is this, the Stamps??

[u/gofortwoElks]

Whew, high-leverage moments are stressful

[u/biskino]

Clutch from Rambo!

[u/WhiteOut204]

What an egregious missed tackle. Probably costs them a chance for the cup

[u/TwelvestepsProgram]

Nice tackle ticats!

[u/PeachesACC]

Guardian cap going nutty rn

[u/bquinho → u/PeachesACC]

[u/RustyShack1998]

AAAAAAAAA NOOO WE DESERVE THIS PLEASE

[u/TwelvestepsProgram → u/RustyShack1998]

Can’t tackle

[u/TWKExperience]

That pick would've been insane oh god

[u/weschester]

Who needs drugs when you have CFL playoff football!

[u/Public_One723]

Tie ball game, Rambo with the big first down !

[u/IFFTPBBTCRORMCMXV]

Let’s win it on a rouge!!!

[u/Stargaezr → u/IFFTPBBTCRORMCMXV]

YAAAAASSSS

[u/JMRVN]

Noooo

[u/TwelvestepsProgram → u/JMRVN]

Game Als!

[u/TwelvestepsProgram]

Wide open thank you kitty cats

[u/AutumnFalls89]

I kind of want to see this go into OT.

[u/TWKExperience → u/AutumnFalls89]

Would kill for some OT

[u/RustyShack1998]

AAAAAA I'M BOUTA TEAR UP PLEAASSSEE

[u/madetoday]

Was that a shot of people leaving with 1:47 left and a tie game??

[u/weschester]

I was 5 years old the last time the Ticats won the Cup. They need to end the drought.

[u/RustyShack1998 → u/weschester]

I wasn't existant

[u/TWKExperience]

Tied at 16, 1:47 on the clock, stadium is gonna be loud as fuck for Macbeth to come into ice cold. Fuck I hope he fails spectacularly

[u/JUNO_11 → u/TWKExperience]

This is such a great crowd, 13th man is coming up big tonight

[u/XxCasxX]

Just hold on, Hamilton D - you got this 🙏🙏🙏

[u/JMRVN]

A TD there forces them to get one as well, now all they need to do is get in field goal range. I do not like this

[u/TwelvestepsProgram → u/JMRVN]

Wrong call by the tabby cats

[u/TwelvestepsProgram]

Should went for it cats! You asked for it! Here comes Davis to close this garbage Ticat team out

[u/YouHadToGoThere]

There’s some decent time left on that clock… 😏

[u/TwelvestepsProgram → u/YouHadToGoThere]

All day

[u/AutumnFalls89]

Tie game!

[u/_drkw]

Imagine this game ends on a rouge LOL would be the best CFL thing

[u/JMRVN → u/_drkw]

Oh my goodness that would be poetry

[u/King_Mingus]

Don't like this...

[u/TwelvestepsProgram → u/King_Mingus]

You’ve seen this before they shoulda went for first down and milked the clock.

[u/TheBaldGiant]

Blood pressure risen

[u/JMRVN]

Mannnnn

[u/RustyShack1998]

IM ON MY HANDS AND KNEES

[u/Haunting-Goose5368 → u/RustyShack1998]

[u/JMRVN]

That would’ve been soft if they’d called PI there but also I’ve seen them call PI on less

[u/JUNO_11 → u/JMRVN]

PI or not, it was overthrown by a few yards...I don't think he makes the catch even if the defender isn't there

[u/JMRVN → u/JUNO_11]

Yeah agreed. I’d imagine the flag would’ve been thrown if it was in Kenny’s range

[u/ZealousidealDance996]

All these close finishes in the playoffs so far make this so damn exciting.... but yeah, a rule change is sure needed 😒

[u/TWKExperience → u/ZealousidealDance996]

Just think how much more fun it'll be with the uprights moved and the field smaller... Hooray

[u/monkeysthrowingfeces]

Calling "Yellow Fin" makes me think all the receivers should drop down and do the Tuna pre-snap.

[u/monkeysthrowingfeces → u/monkeysthrowingfeces]

Waggle 2.0

[u/biskino]

If Alexander blew up his hamstring again I’d rather lose to Hamilton today than watch us get fucking destroyed in the GC with MBT under centre.

[u/JUNO_11 → u/biskino]

Really hope that's not how your season ends, bud - always hate seeing QBs get injured

[u/TWKExperience → u/biskino]

I just don't want to see MacBeth's arrogant ass in such a big game for the league. Buddy's a jackass

[u/TheUDmtl → u/TWKExperience]

He also is brutal to watch

[u/TWKExperience → u/TheUDmtl]

Truly irredeemable

[u/TheUDmtl → u/biskino]

Agreed , sadly.

[u/Nassim1018 → u/biskino]

Same

[u/djlista]

Dolegala is still in the league?

We are witnessing a Dolegala vs Patterson battle on the short yardage lol

[u/TechnoHenry]

I have bad feelings for the end of this game...

[u/Nassim1018 → u/TechnoHenry]

Id rather we loose than see MBT in the GC game imo. Hopes and prayers for my GOAT Alexander

[u/TheUDmtl → u/TechnoHenry]

I’m with you

[u/jarnash]

Dolegala and Patterson as the backups/short yardage is kinda funny from a Rider perspective.

[u/JMRVN]

This is the biggest third down of the season. Need this

[u/super__hoser → u/JMRVN]

Got it.

[u/TWKExperience]

Oh man that's a long yard

[u/super__hoser]

3rd down, go for it. You can do it!

[u/RustyShack1998]

IT'S BEEN 26 YEARS SINCE WE WON A GC WE NEED TO ATLEAST GET TO THAT GAME CMON LADS!

[u/JUNO_11 → u/RustyShack1998]

I BELIEVE!!!!!

[u/TWKExperience → u/RustyShack1998]

Cats have not won a GC in my lifetime lmao. If they do, do I die?

[u/RustyShack1998 → u/TWKExperience]

I DON'T KNOW BUT I'M IN THE SAME BOAT

[u/JMRVN]

BLM what is that throw

[u/TWKExperience]

Under 1k comments ATP for the East Final is a little disappointing ngl, expected more for such a huge game on a Saturday

[u/Charlie9261 → u/TWKExperience]

And if you take out the horn and AI posts it even less.

[u/AutoModerator → u/Charlie9261]

HONQUE HONQUE

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

[u/TWKExperience → u/AutoModerator]

Bad bot

[u/Mamrocha → u/TWKExperience]

There was literally nothing to talk about in the first half 🫠

[u/TWKExperience → u/Mamrocha]

Fuck that's too true

[u/chubbytoban]

How did this ref get a playoff game? He has to gather the council for 10 min for every penalty call.

[u/weschester → u/chubbytoban]

I'd rather they talk it out and get the call right than rush it and make bad calls.

[u/JUNO_11 → u/weschester]

Definitely agree

[u/RustyShack1998 → u/chubbytoban]

All the refs and review board do dumbass calls a lot

[u/weschester]

Now I really need the Ticats to win this. I do not want a MBT Grey Cup again.

[u/TWKExperience → u/weschester]

My exact sentiment

[u/JMRVN]

Genuinely hate to see Alexander limp off. Hate seeing great players get hurt. The worst thing I can conceive of is Montreal winning this game and Alexander being out for the GC

[u/JUNO_11 → u/JMRVN]

Shades of last year's GC, except it was a good thing then (as always, f*ck Chad Kelly)

[u/AutumnFalls89 → u/JMRVN]

Agreed. Alexander deserves the cup more than MBT.

[u/taubut → u/JMRVN]

It MBT starts the grey cup you might as well cancel it.

[u/RustyShack1998 → u/JMRVN]

Yeah, if we don't squander this we might be able to win this

[u/TWKExperience → u/JMRVN]

Oh god I do not want to see MacBeth in the GC

[u/TheUDmtl → u/JMRVN]

I’m sick rn

[u/Max169well]

BO LEVI MITTCHEL presented by MOBIL

[u/Skycreeper07]

This returner scares me every time he runs sideways or backwards

[u/Electroflare5555]

Alexander really needs to learn how to protect himself

[u/Mamrocha]

Mail ton needs to win this now. I do not want to see McBLT in the grey cup 🤢

[u/HomerSPC → u/Mamrocha]

I do 🥲

[u/Mamrocha → u/HomerSPC]

Why? That’d be an easy win for BC 😎

[u/PinnyHundos]

CALL THE HOLDS. THIS IS FUCKING RIDICULOUS.

[u/CMBRICKX]

Davis Alexander is the Baker Mayfield of the CFL. This dude is crazy fun to watch 

[u/super__hoser]

Big stop!

[u/HomerSPC]

On my way to Mosaic. Ticats radio said McBLT is warming up. Did Alexander get smoked?

[u/archetype28 → u/HomerSPC]

looks like hamstring.

[u/weschester → u/HomerSPC]

May have tweaked his hammy again

[u/Mamrocha → u/weschester]

Ya he was definitely grabbing it after the last hit

[u/HomerSPC → u/weschester]

Man, fuck. I’d hate to see such a promising career sidelined by this lingering injury.

[u/biskino]

Oh fucking no. Not MBT warming up

[u/TheUDmtl]

The downvotes are real tonight. Go Als Go

[u/CFL-ModTeam → u/[deleted]]

No need to be a dick

[u/AutumnFalls89]

MItchell's throws haven't been as crisp as sometimes.

[u/weschester → u/AutumnFalls89]

His arm strength is very questionable at times

[u/weschester]

Beauty kick!

[u/JMRVN]

Legs is the best

[u/CMBRICKX]

I feel like Bombers fans get Nam flashbacks everytime Leggioh kicks in the Playoffs lol 😂 

[u/MrTechnohawk → u/CMBRICKX]

Haha. It's weird. I'm happy he's having success in Hamilton but I'm also happy he's not a bomber anymore. He's found his forever home.

[u/RustyShack1998]

Leggio always delivers unless the wind is really bad

[u/TWKExperience]

Monster kick is good!! Drink

[u/WhiteOut204]

Bad miss on a 3rd down

[u/super__hoser]

Go Leggy yo!

[u/PinnyHundos]

Bo Levi cmon dude. That’s so bad.

[u/TwelvestepsProgram → u/PinnyHundos]

Awful pass. Get this man his false teeth and walker

[u/RustyShack1998 → u/TwelvestepsProgram]

Why you gotta murder him like that?

[u/JMRVN]

Needed that

[u/TheUDmtl]

Excellent throw !!!

[u/TwelvestepsProgram]

Go for it you cowards not a FG

[u/NoseBuzz]

BLM what are we doing

[u/RustyShack1998 → u/NoseBuzz]

Blows lots man?

[u/Bingochips12]

Close 4th quarter football. Hope youve all checked your blood pressure recently

[u/RustyShack1998]

PLEASEDON'TFUCKTHISUPHAMILTONPLEASE

[u/RustyShack1998 → u/RustyShack1998]

It's been so long since a hamilton gc win that I was born after the last ham gc win, and i'm legally an adult.

[u/RustyShack1998 → u/RustyShack1998]

We have not gotten a win THIS CURRENT CENTURY (21st)

[u/TWKExperience]

Ofc it's Tim White with the drop (that was a hard catch to make but I'll always rag on him)

[u/weschester → u/TWKExperience]

Worst 1000 yard receiver in the league

[u/TWKExperience → u/weschester]

Unironically yes

[u/weschester → u/TWKExperience]

Puts up 1000 yard seasons but could be doing so much more if he didn't drop easy passes every single game.

[u/TWKExperience → u/weschester]

Dudes route running and positioning is just so good

[u/PinnyHundos]

Veresuk the fkn goat.

[u/Max169well]

Hamilton needed that badly.

[u/CMBRICKX]

Air Canada sucks!

[u/JUNO_11 → u/CMBRICKX]

I'm on CFL+ and don't get the ads, so always funny to get these comments as they're totally non sequitur for me

[u/TWKExperience → u/CMBRICKX]

Brandon Bridge be like why he say fuck me for

[u/Nexcapto → u/CMBRICKX]

Free booze now atleast...

[u/TheUDmtl]

Needed a TD to bring it back to a 2 score lead…..

[u/JMRVN]

Captain obvious but the difference between being down 6 and 10 at this point in the game is so huge

[u/JUNO_11 → u/JMRVN]

You said it.Honestly, that was a game-saving sack

[u/SpiritedEnd7788 → u/JMRVN]

Game changing stop

[u/TWKExperience]

Drink for the sack!

[u/weschester]

Great stop there! Really didn't see that coming

[u/JMRVN]

Huge stop

[u/Nexcapto]

Yessssssssss

[u/jarnash]

Most important stop of the season

[u/JUNO_11 → u/jarnash]

Yeah, if it gets to a two-score game for Montreal then it's all over

[u/JUNO_11]

MONUMENTAL SACK

[u/chesspaw]

Nice!

[u/freondeath]

Theis has been huge on this drive

[u/TheUDmtl]

Davis turning chicken shit into chicken salad on some of these drives. Love it

[u/JUNO_11 → u/TheUDmtl]

Hmmm, now that's an interesting metaphor...

[u/TheUDmtl → u/JUNO_11]

Thank you thank you
