First one I remember was 1972. Hamilton winning on a field goal against Sask.. I would say, that this is in the top 5 for Grey Cups.

[@steveoatway7001]

@@my3dviews I remember that exciting game because it was in Hamilton with them winning. I was playing Football at that time and told close note of everything that went on. The one thing that scared me about that stadium was how close the concrete stands were to the field. I recall watching Angelo Mosca holding up the Grey Cup and frowning because I was a BC Lions Fan and that first game I watched was when he hit our Star, Willie Fleming and knocked him out of the game. Every time Angelo stepped onto Empire Stadium field from then on he was booed. Gotta love Grey Cups!

@@steveoatway7001 I'm a Rider fan, so that was my first big disappointment. Then '76 was even worse, since the Riders were the favourite, but still lost.

What a game! I love CFL fans... the comments are not filled with excuses or discontent but good sportsmanship for the most part. I live about two hours south of Winnipeg (in MN) and have quietly cheered for the Bombers since 1990 but being aware that Hamilton hadn't won since 1999 reminded me of what it's like to be a Vikings fan...last S.B. appearance was 1976.

[@VoIcanoman]

Yeah, there are similarities, but the details make it into almost an entirely different sport. And this year's Bombers are about as dominant a team as we've seen in the past 30 years (which is as long as I've been following the CFL) - offensively and defensively, they had no peer. Truthfully, I think this game was decided almost 8 weeks ago, when the Bombers traded for Sergio Castillo. Place-kicking was their single weakness - once they added a reliable kicker, they cemented their path to the championship. Castillo was CRITICAL to the win on Sunday...they'd never have gotten the W with Mourtada or Liegghio responsible for field goals.

[@my3dviews]

@@VoIcanoman Quote " I think this game was decided almost 8 weeks ago, when the Bombers traded for Sergio Castillo." Really? The Bombers barely won. Hamilton almost completed a pass for a TD on second down with a few seconds left in the 4th quarter. Which would have won them the game. Plus, the Bombers barely beat the Riders. Who were only down by 4 and had time to score a TD in the last minute. Yes they won, but were hardly dominant in the playoffs. Calgary had a few years where they were by far the dominant team. In 2014 they had 15 wins and won the Grey Cup.

[@randomtrainerx.3424]

The play that felt like the dagger was taking the knee with 1:50 left in the 4th quarter instead of running it out in clear field. Besides that opinion, Congrats to both teams for having great seasons and ending it with banger of a Grey Cup. Looking forward to the 2022 season.

[@randomname9758]

That was a terrible call from the coaching staff.

[@den8863]

Taking it out could have won Hamilton the cup. They would have been in good field goal range. And the player could have run it out pretty far.

[@Bomber_Boi]

@@den8863 it could also have been their demise. Say he takes it out, goes to make a cut to avoid a tackle, and fumbles the ball. Coach O even said after, that he gave him the choice to take a knee or take it out. Anything could have happened, even if he ran it 50 yards back, there's no guarantee that Masoli drives the field to get into FG range...

[@danielharold2329]

Bomber fan here, maybe I am in the minority, but I think taking the knee was the best call. Hamilton had to kick into the wind, which was brutal so they needed to get to the WPG 35, maybe 30. Plus if he takes it out where will he end up, the 25 at best? 10 or 15 at worst. They got 20 more yards to start the drive, and you cant say they would have executed the exact same plays just from a different starting position. IDK maybe id feel the same way if WPG was in Hamiltons position. Either way great game.

[@TheKingOfAmalek]

I'm a Bombers fan, but anyone who is criticising Hamilton for taking a knee in the endzone late in the game needs to understand that they were playing against the wind. Had he taken the ball out, for all we know, he could've been stopped at the 10 or 15 yard line, and would've made it even harder for them to get into field goal range. In hindsight, it's easy to sit here and say they made a terrible decision, after they marched down the field, but at the time with their offence struggling against the wind, I honestly believe it was the correct decision.

[@immaleaf4964]

Good point, my only question is why doesn't the T get it's own little period

[@darrendouglas1824]

Don’t justify stupidity please.

[@TheKingOfAmalek]

@@darrendouglas1824 You only think it's stupid because they were able to march down the field successfully. You're using hindsight, which isn't fair. Hamilton's offence was struggling in the 4th quarter playing against the wind. Had he taken the ball out, he would've been stopped at the 15 or 20, and with the way their offence was performing against the wind, it would've been a lot harder to get into field goal range.

[@jerrysullivan5060]

As much as I never want to kick a guy when he's down, taking that knee was the wrong decision. Playing against strong wind amplifies the importance of return yards. Due to the wind, the ball arrived downfield long before the coverage team and with blockers in place he was in an optimal position for a massive return. They were throwing against the wind seconds later. If you don't play to win, than win you won't

[@jerrysullivan5060]

@@TheKingOfAmalek I totally agree about the wind factor. I live in Hamilton and can tell you that it's a good thing the game wasn't on Saturday when we had wind gusts of 100 km/hr. But, he had the opportunity for a huge return. There wasn't a Blue Bomber on the screen when he caught the ball. They had a far better chance of earning yards off the return than driving the field. I looked skywards when he took that knee. But all the same, I congratulate you and all Blue Bomber supporters for a well deserved Championship. Well done

Rarely are kicks put it unless it's a costly miss, or one made from a ungoddly length.

I'm a lifelong CFL fan, and I completely agree about the sponsors' names on uniforms. But this seems to be the way things are going in basically all sports, so I've had to get used to the idea (just like I had to get used to them calling stadiums and arenas after a company that bought naming rights...like, NOBODY should feel proud to attend a game at freakin' Little Caesar's Arena or Tim Horton's Field...that's just stupid). But this commercialist BS is a small detail marring an otherwise incredible league. And actually, I think most American NFL fans would enjoy the CFL if they gave it a chance. The differences are small and easy to get used to, but they add up to the sport being played in entirely novel and exciting ways...plus so many of the college players that American fans have been following for years end up having incredible careers in Canada (or else they end up bombing here as well, just like you, and everyone else, suspected they would...Johnny Manziel anyone?).

BACK TO BACK CHAMPS BABY!!!!

[@talksmoke1190]

Hamilton lost this game. They should have passed on that 1st and goal. The punting really hurt them, giving the bombers half the field too many times.

[@seangraham5553]

You’re right. Hamilton’s special teams were atrocious.

[@trevordidham5245]

Great game! Both teams put on a show. You want your championship game to be like that.😊

[@walkerrux]

Ok I’m American, can someone explain why the players voluntarily kneel in the endzone and give the other team points. Like how the hamilton player did it to make it 4-0 and how the winnepeg punter did it to make it 19-10

[@bolognaking6197]

They're swapping points for field position. If they run out a punt they might save the point but end up scrimmaging on their own two yard line or something. If they voluntarily give up the point they scrimmage on their own 35 yard line. When the Winnipeg punter gave up a safety touch, it was because the wind was in his face and his punt would probably have left Hamilton within easy range to score. He gained 25 yards by giving up 2 points. Sometimes it's a good idea, sometimes not. You can read these comments to hear people arguing about the rouge Hamilton gave up which put them three points down in the last minute.

Hindsight is 20/20 No guarantee that they drive the field from the 15 yard line, instead of the 35

[@jerrysullivan5060]

@@Bomber_Boi I'm not sure why you think that he would only have reached the 15 off the return. The kickoff was extremely wind-aided and beat the coverage team downfield by a huge margin. It was a returner's dream scenario; you couldn't hope for better. Considering how difficult it was to drive the field against the wind, those return yards were critical. I understand that hindsight is 20/20 and I certainly feel for him, but he needed to get as many yards as possible on that return if I'm to offer a fair analysis. Of course it's easy for me to say from my couch

[@Bomber_Boi]

@@jerrysullivan5060 true. They were also trying to save seconds on the clock too. Yes, 10 seconds wouldn't have buried them, but it would have compounded the situation. No guarantees that being at the 20 yard line, with 10 seconds fewer to work with and only down 2 would have generated a field goal winning drive by the ticats either...

[@psychtrane]

Not often that a game comes down to a single point off the kick off, but that is arguably what happened here. I sure hope it was a coaching decision to concede that point, and not one Tim White made on his own.

[@chaudcola]

interception at 6:42 I don't know why he didn't continue to run on outside, I'm sure he would've scored, but he went inside instead.

[@zaynes5094]

Winnipeg is legit. I remember when they beat Hamilton in the 107th Grey Cup and it was a good one. Low scoring and good defense. Before that it was the Stampeders stampeding over competition all season long and destroying in the playoffs. They haven’t been the same since that title. Winnipeg has gotten better since then.

[@MrChrisdube]

How do you punt the ball 9 yards if it isn't partially blocked. Was it absurdly windy for the Grey Cup game?

[@James-vj5hz]

It was extremely windy. It was difficult to make extra points because field goal attempts were only going 35 yards at times.

[@B.sacamano]

What a great game! Congratulations bombers🙏 class organization all the way. Oskie wee wee💔

[@watsonroadster3707]

As a Tiger-Cat fan, this was a gut wrenching loss...We've lost 4 Grey Cups in 9 years , but this one is the worst to take of all...We just didn't take advantage of the wind when we had it. That single point give up has to be worse than the Taylor Ried illegal block in '14...And now, our head coach is gone and probably some of the front office and a rebuild...22 years and still nothing and probably at least 3 years before we get another shot...We're basically the Minnesota Vikings/Buffalo Bills of the CFL. The Tiger-Cats seem to be designed to break your heart...

[@tjjoseph1093]

That knee had me scratching my head. He caught the ball at the very front edge of the end zone and had alot of room to run.

[@nunosoares2329]

As a Bomber fan sorry you guys are going thru a rough time. Our team has been there many times but we managed to rebound and you will too 👍

[@CanuckGod]

I do feel for you guys... my Bombers were so close at times, but could never quite get past that hurdle until 2 years ago. Hats off to the Cats on an amazing game, they have nothing to be ashamed of.

[@den8863]

I am a Bomber fan and I do really feel sorry for Ti-cat fans. I relate my misery from 1990 to 2019 to yours. Of course I am so happy that the Bombers won., but would have liked to have seen it against another team (especially Toronto) When the Tiger cats play in their next grey cup game (unless it is against the Bombers), I will definitely cheer for the cats.
