The Toronto Argonauts have signed Romby Bryant from the Calgary Stampeders on Tuesday.
Bryant, who was released by the Stampeders last week, has signed a two year contract with the Argonauts.
Bryant has 295 catches for 4428 yards and 31 touchdowns in his CFL career with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and Calgary Stampeders.
Last season Bryant caught 55 passes for 678 yards and two touchdowns.
Bryant has been brought in by the Argonauts to compliment Chad Owens, who had a breakout season in 2012 where he was named the Canadian Football League’s Most Outstanding Player and set a CFL record for the most all-purpose yards in a single season with 3,863.

Grey Cup (Roland Tanglao, Wikimedia Commons)
The Toronto Argonauts and the Calgary Stampeders will meet in the 100th Grey Cup a week from today at the Rogers Centre in Toronto.
On Sunday, three Toronto Argonauts had outstanding offensive performances in a 27-20 win over the Montreal Alouettes. Ricky Ray passed for 399 yards, Chad Kackert had 139 rushing yards and wide receiver Chad Owens had 207 receiving yards.
Toronto bounced back after a 17-10 halftime deficit and an inability to score any points on a second quarter drive where they were first and goal at Montreal’s one yard line.
The Stampeders meanwhile beat the B.C. Lions 34-29 in equally an impressive offensve performance. Quarterback Kevin Glenn, who will be starting in his first career Grey Cup game, threw for 303 yards. Running back Jon Cornish ran for 112 yards and wide receiver Maurice Price had 117 yards receiving.
A major reason for Calgary’s success was because Glenn was able to connect with Marquay McDaniel for a 68 yard touchdown pass in the first quarter and Romby Bryant for a 57 yard pass in the third quarter.

In one of the most dramatic finishes in Canadian Football League history, the Calgary Stampeders defeated the Saskatchewan Roughriders Sunday night in the western division semi-final at McMahon Stadium 36-30.
Trailing 29-23 with a minute and a second left, the Roughriders moved ahead on a 24 yard pass from Darian Durant to former Edmonton Eskimo Greg Carr which put Saskatchewan up 30-29.
But the Stampeders weren’t done. With only 39 seconds left, Drew Tate found Romby Bryant wide open down the sideline for a 68 yard touchdown pass to put Calgary up 35-30. (Tate had an unsuccessful two point conversion).

The Calgary Stampeders have moved back to the .500 mark in the CFL’s Western Division.
On Saturday afternoon, according to TSN, Jon Cornish ran for 159 yards on 24 carries as the Calgary Stampeders defeated the Saskatchewan Roughriders 17-10 to move to 4-4 and in sole possession of third place in the division.
Wide receiver Joe West also had an impact for Calgary. Playing in his very first football game, West scored a touchdown on his very first pass reception. He would end the day leading the Stampeders with five receptions for 68 yards.

Calgary Stampeders’ running back Jon Cornish stepped up with a key game Thursday night at Hamilton’s Ivor Wynne Stadium.
After being in the negative category in rushing yards in his last game (-1), and criticizing his offensive line, Cornish was much better last night as he rushed for 170 yards in a 31-20 Calgary win over Hamilton.
With the win, the Stampeders improve to 3-3 while Hamilton fell to 3-3. Just how close is the East at the moment? Hamilton, the Toronto Argonauts and Montreal Alouettes are all tied for first place with similar .500 records.
This was the first time the Stampeders played the Tiger-Cats since the two teams made their famous offseason blockbuster deal that saw quarterback Henry Burris traded from Calgary to Hamilton for quarterback Kevin Glenn and offensive lineman Mark Dewit. Ironically both teams came out sluggish and did not score in the first quarter.
The Stampeders dominated the fourth quarter, outscoring the Tiger-Cats 14-0 on an eight yard touchdown run by Romby Bryant and an eight yard touchdown pass from Glenn to Nik Lewis.

In the third segment of a four part series, it’s time to analyze the Calgary Stampeders for the 2011 Canadian Football League season.
I see the Stampeders battling the Saskatchewan Roughriders for first place in the CFL’s Western Division. Both teams have significantly stronger depth than the Edmonton Eskimos and British Columbia Lions.
The most significant acquisitions for Calgary in the off-season were linebacker Tim St. Pierre from the Edmonton Eskimos, defensive back Geoff Tisdale from the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and kick returner Larry Taylor from the Montreal Alouettes. St. Pierre was the Eskimos’ Most Outstanding Special Teams player in 2010, while Taylor was the 2009 CFL Most Outstanding Player Award winner.

The Calgary Stampeders and Toronto Argonauts made a multi-player trade Thursday afternoon.
According to the Canadian Press, the Stampeders traded wide receiver P.K. Sam and defensive tackle Miguel Robede to Toronto for wide receiver Reggie McNeal and defensive tackle Adrian Davis.
Sam and McNeal are both imports, while Robede and Davis are both non-imports.

Henry Burris
This weekend we’ll find out the answer to major question on many Canadian sports’ fans minds.
Who will play in the 98th Grey Cup next Sunday in Edmonton?
The Montreal Alouettes and the Toronto Argonauts will battle in the Eastern Final at Montreal’s Olympic Stadium (Sunday, 11am, TSN), and the Saskatchewan Roughriders and Calgary Stampeders will duel at McMahon Stadium in Calgary for the Western Final (Sunday, 2:30pm. TSN).
In the East, the Alouettes are disappointed they only had three players selected to the CFL All-Star Team– guard Scott Flory, linebacker Chip Cox and defensive end John Bowman.
It will be interesting to see how Montreal rebounds after losing 30-4 to Toronto in the final week of the regular season. I know Anthony Calvillo, Ben Cahoon, Kerry Watkins, S.J. Green, Jamel Richardson and Avon Cobourne were not in the lineup, but it will be interesting to see how the Alouettes respond after their major offensive core haven’t played since October 29.

The Calgary Stampeders have closed out the 2010 CFL Regular Season with a victory.
It might not have been very convincing, but a 38-35 win on the road against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers deserves a thumbs up.
Quarterback Henry Burris’s night was short and sweet. He threw a 30-yard touchdown pass to Romby Bryant early in the first quarter. Burris’ totals were 3 for 3 for 55 yards and then watched Drew Tate take control for the rest of the evening.

Romby Bryant (Bing Images)
The number one offense and the number one defense in the Canadian Football League looked like the number one offense and the number one defense in the Canadian Football League Friday night at McMahon Stadium.
Calgary defeated Hamilton 55-24 to make a significant statement as we are headed to the postseason. Calgary improved to 12-5 and are tied with Montreal as the best team in the Canadian Football League.
Leading 3-0 early in the first quarter, Stamps’ defensive back Dwight Anderson intercepted a Kevin Glenn pass for the touchdown to make the score 10-0 Calgary.

After very brutal performances (one from the defense and one from the offense over the last two weeks), the Calgary Stampeders bounced back in a big way from both sides of the football Friday night at McMahon Stadium.
In front of a solid crowd of 31, 167 fans, the Stamps trounced the Montreal Alouettes 46-21 in a battle of two first place teams.
As successfully predicted by Any Sport Any Time’s cricket expert Ron Saywack, the Stamps rebounded. Henry Burris had 412 passing yards–169 to Ken-Yon Rambo and 146 to Romby Bryant.
