The regular season has come and gone. We’ve seen record-breaking performances (looking at you, Diontae Spencer), incredible catches (now looking at you, Duron Carter) and exciting games that come down to the very last play (Hey, Winnipeg Blue Bombers).

Now we head into the playoffs as six teams remain on the quest to becoming the 105th Grey Cup Champions.

Over the 2017 season – and during the off-season before things got started in June – I had a chance to chat with some of the league’s brightest starts each and every week.

I sat on Skype while Kevin Glenn so kindly invited me into his living room to show me a few of the pieces of furniture that he had built and I sat across the table at Mark’s CFL Week while Manny Arceneaux explained to me exactly why he started to be called The Manny Show. I’ve also lost count of the amount of phone conversations I’ve had with guys after practice from across the country.

That’s what make our game so great – the players. They were all happy to answer personal questions to help you – the fans – get to know them better!

I figured now we can have a look back at all of the TMI’s from the four teams that are battling it out this weekend.

You can get to know Roughriders and REDBLACKS players before they play in the Eastern Semi-Final in Ottawa on Sunday afternoon. Then read up on your Blue Bombers and Eskimos before they hit the turf at Investors Group Field in the Western Semi-Final.

SASKATCHEWAN ROUGHRIDERS

You can’t think about the Saskatchewan Roughriders without thinking about their wicked celebrations. Read up on how they come up with the ideas before you settle in to watch them come to life on Sunday.

DURON CARTER – WR

He’s the guy everyone loves to hate. But did you know he only wears one pair of socks on game day and he can recall his first CFL TD like it happened yesterday? Read his TMI here.

HENOC MUAMBA – LB

Henoc Muamba counts in his head in French – that’s his first language, after all. Read his TMI here.

Kevin Glenn – QB

Not sure if this is Kevin Glenn or Bob the Builder. Why? Find out in the Riders QB’s TMI.

DEREK DENNIS – OL

Derek Dennis is as colourful as his hair. Read why this TMI.

OTTAWA REDLBLACKS

ANTOINE PRUNEAU – S

Antoine’s pre-game playlist is full of Celine Dion. Yup. Celine. Dion. Read what song he listens to in his TMI here.

DIONTAE SPENCER – WR

Diontae likes to dance. And we’ve seen it quite a bit this season. Get to know more about the speedy receiver/return man in this TMI.

GREG ELLINGSON & BRAD SINOPOLI – WRs

It’s a special buds edition of TMI with two REDBLACKS receivers. They’re such good buds that they share clothes. Read about it here.

WINNIPEG BLUE BOMBERS

TIMOTHY FLANDERS – RB

You have to see the Flanders Flip. That’s all I’m going to say. See it and read the TMI here.

TAYLOR LOFFLER – S

Taylor Loffer admitted that he is the worst dressed player on the Bombers roster. Yup. Honesty is the best policy. Read his TMI here.

EDMONTON ESKIMOS

MIKE REILLY – QB

Okay, so maybe the only thing you need to know about Mike Reilly is that his hat game is STRONG. Like, really strong. Oh, and that he also would totally be a construction worker if he wasn’t the league’s leading passer. Read his TMI here. 

BRANDON ZYLSTRA -WR

Brandon Zylstra’s hobby is eating. I don’t need to say anything more because me too, Brandon. Me too. Read his TMI here.

ODELL WILLIS – DE

You’re not having as much fun as Odell Willis is. You’re just not. Read why in his TMI here.

C.J. Gable – RB

While I did this TMI back when C.J. was still a Hamilton Tiger-Cat, it still holds up. Get to know the newest Eskimo here.

Adarius Bowman – WR

We’ve seen Adarius Bowman’s touchdown celebration a few times over the last couple weeks. Will we see it again in the playoffs? Find out where it came from in this Behind the Celebration. Or get to know Adarius off the field in this TMI.
