TSN football insider Dave Naylor is certain this will be the last Grey Cup game at Calgary’s McMahon Stadium. “It has fallen below the standard of the Canadian Football League,” Naylor told CTV News. Naylor equates the 66-year-old stadium to an aging car that needs several thousand dollars in repairs. The driver might as well get a new one. “I went to the stadium as a 13-year-old in 1981. My father brought me to a game—B.C. and Calgary—and I walk into it today and it looks the same. It hasn’t changed in 45 years,” Naylor said. Naylor believes this is the 26th Grey Cup he’s been to. He’s impressed by how Grey Cup week brings ordinary fans together. “I’ve also been to 18 or 19 Super Bowls, and the contrast is so obvious. In Super Bowls you don’t see a lot of fans. There aren’t parties for regular people, people that are the ticket-buying public,” Naylor said. As for the game itself, Naylor predicts a 27-21 victory for Montreal, which he said has been the best team in the CFL all year.
