The rest of the group includes Vernon Adams Jr., Chris Fortin, Josh Love, Derrick Moncrief, Godfrey Onyeka and Tommy Wilson.<\/p>\n
For how it all started? Rhymes takes the credit.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, a lot of people will say they started it, but I was the original founding member,\u201d said Rhymes who claims he began the club with the BC Lions in 2022.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m really the leader,\u201d he smirked. \u201cV.A. (Vernon Adams Jr.) will say he started it so there\u2019s some speculation.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Breakfast Club is a testament to the team\u2019s unwavering commitment to get better week in and week out.<\/p>\n
Through the ups and downs, they\u2019ve remained steadfast in their work, getting up every morning and dedicated to putting a winning product on the field.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a group of people that are motivated,\u201d said the Stamps\u2019 leading receiver. \u201cWe know we\u2019re able to come in each and every day, work out and keep that consistent path, consistent routine, so when we go on the field, we are going to do everything consistently out there, too.\u201d<\/p>\n
With the regular season in the rearview mirror and playoff football dead ahead, the message stays the same.<\/p>\n
\u201cJust keep doing the same things you\u2019ve been doing, the same things that have got you here,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cStay consistent, continuously doing what you\u2019ve been preaching all year, and good things always happen.\u201d<\/p>\n
VA finds DR for a TD \ud83d\ude24 pic.twitter.com\/ofCT9eJ7Rh<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Calgary Stampeders (@calstampeders) October 5, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n The Stamps enter the Western Semi-Final matchup against the Lions seen as heavy underdogs by the media.<\/p>\n There are valid reasons to get lost in the hype surrounding the offensive prowess of Buck Pierce\u2019s Leos \u2013 Nathan Rourke put up massive numbers, throwing for 5,290 yards and 31 touchdowns, and pass-catchers Keon Hatcher and Justin McInnis landed in first and third place in receiving by hauling in 1,688 and 1,256 yards respectively.<\/p>\n Not to mention the six-game win streak the Lions put together to close out the regular season.<\/p>\n Hey hey hey hey.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t you forget about the Stampeders.<\/p>\n The Red and White put together an admirable 2025 campaign of their own.<\/p>\n With almost a complete overhaul of their 2024 roster, the new-look Stamps more than doubled their win total from last season, besting a 5-12-1 record and last place in the CFL with an 11-7 finish and only one victory behind the top team in the league.<\/p>\n Plus, they also put together a positive streak to end the year, winning their last three games in a row.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a tough group, probably the toughest group I have been part of,\u201d said the eight-year CFL veteran. \u201cShoot, it\u2019s probably the most physical group I\u2019ve been part of, which is saying something, man, because physicality takes you a long way, especially in the playoffs.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve been through it all so I\u2019ve got nothing but respect for every guy in the locker room because I know the battles everybody has been going through. And you wouldn\u2019t even be able to tell because they go out and give their all every game.\u201d<\/p>\n Clarence Hicks moves in and shuts it down!<\/p>\n \ud83d\udcc5: @calstampeders<\/a> vs. Lions LIVE NOW
