And it looks like it will be quite the party for the Stampeders, too, as they should go into the 102nd edition of the big game as the huge favourites after clobbering the visiting Edmonton Eskimos 43-18 in Sundays West final. The Tiger-Cats, who dumped the Montreal Alouettes 40-24 in Sundays East final at Tim Hortons Field, will play in their second straight Grey Cup against another tough West Division opponent, just like last year. The Saskatchewan Roughriders thumped Hamilton 45-23 on their home turf to capture their fourth championship last November. Fifteen years ago the Tabbies, led by coach Ron Lancaster and quarterback Danny McManus, beat Wally Buonos Stampeders 32-21 at B.C. Place. This years game is also in Vancouver, but the Stampeders, who were 15-3, will be expected to get some payback on behalf of the organization.
