Are we all REDBLACKS fans?

Our household was glued to the Calgary / Ottawa game on Saturday night, and I’ll be honest, half the house is not that big into sports.

There we were gathered, openly riding the highs and lows of Ottawa’s hunt for their first win of the season. Sorry to the Calgary Stampeders, but the consensus within the household was you have six wins already this season.

Then Rene Paredes lined up from 62 yards and while I knew better, most of the house was thinking this is it! Ottawa is going to finally win!

I’ve seen this movie before from Paredes, albeit not from 62 yards, and he flushed it. It was a no-doubter bomb to end the hopes and dreams of Ottawa players, coaches, managers and fans (even the ones jumping on the bandwagon cheering for at least one win).

So, Ottawa, you’ll have the support of at least four Regina residents again on Saturday against Calgary.

Remember I picked Ottawa to win last week and nearly got it. Matt Cauz went for it this week and I’m going to assume more of us will join the chorus that there is no way you go winless in........
