Not much news this morning besides pre-game Grey Cup setups. People seem to be having fun in Calgary as fans from both teams get ready; the Alouettes are the favourites, even their coach demanding nothing extra special beyond how they’ve played all season; pre-game analyses galore, thoughts on Anthony Calvillo, a look at two Quebec players on the Saskatchewan team. The game starts 6:30 p.m. our time.
