Lions vs Blue Bombers in 99th Grey Cup
The final chapter of two improbable stories will be written today, when the B.C. Lions and Winnipeg Blue Bombers meet in the 99th Grey Cup.
Coverage has begun with Countdown to Kickoff on TSN and TSN Mobile TV. You can see the game on TSN, TSN Mobile TV, and TSN.ca beginning at 6pm et/3pm pt, plus you can chat with your fellow fans on our Game Day blog.
After managing just four wins during the 2010 season, the Blue Bombers found themselves in last place overall at year's end. When the 2011 campaign got underway, Winnipeg exploded out of the gates with seven wins in their first eight games, eventually finishing in top spot in the East Division. Following a win over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in the East Final, the Bombers descend upon Vancouver looking for their first Grey Cup victory in 21 years.
Their arrival in this year's Grey Cup marks just the second time since 1982 that a team went from last in their division to a Grey Cup appearance.
