Sucks for Hamilton for sure. They are so overdue. The city and the fans deserve it. I have heard many times over the last couple of decades about how they aren't able to hold one, but I have never understand it. They have a great owner, strong team management (notwithstanding the egomaniacal- but still competent head coach) and a super fan base. Still all-in for an Edmonton Grey Cup!

June 2, 20178 yr comment_266130 Way prefer Edmonton to Hamilton from a personal perspective. The wife has family out in Edmonton, I could totally make this work.
June 2, 20178 yr comment_266135 I read a couple weeks ago that it's been down to Edmonton and Calgary for awhile now. The league was deciding between their two bids.
June 2, 20178 yr comment_266141 I think it's pretty much a guarantee that Hamilton gets it when they actually want it but they don't feel they are in a position to host the thing at this time.
June 2, 20178 yr comment_266157 HAM isn t ready yet. Too many stadium and legal issues. Hotel space and hospitality questions remain too.
