That was a great game. While most of you settled in for an afternoon of NFL football, I watched the Toronto Argonauts host the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in the East Division semifinal.
Down 27-17 midway through the fourth quarter, Michael Bishop came off the bench to bring us all the way back. He hit Arland Bruce III on a 68-yard TD strike on his first snap from centre and hit R. Jay Soward with a 15-yard pass to put us up 31-27. It was a thrilling comeback and earned us a spot in the East Division final againt the Montreal Alouettes.
You guys can keep yer damn NFL.
That was an amazing game. The crowd was electric! When Bishop came in I thought, "Oh no! They've given up!" But when he threw his first pass for a TD and then a couple of minutes later another (he's got a strong arm) It was amazing to hear and see the crowd on their feet making all that noise. It was my first attendance at a professional playoff game (for any sport) and man it was amazing! My wife loved it too, she was even talking about the possibility of getting tickets to next week's game in Montreal!
