Week 8 Picks

Bye weeks are over!  Back to the full gamut of games!

Hamilton (2-4) @ Winnipeg (1-5): Friday, August 16 (8:00pm EDT)

Pick: Hamilton
Two horribly awful teams battle it out for a playoff spot?  Only in the CFL.  This could be the most evenly matched game of the week but that doesn’t mean it will be the best.  Max Hall gets the start for Winnipeg but he’s probably on a very short leash.  The circus continues in Winnipeg, don’t forget to get your half price tickets from Kijiji!

Montreal (2-4) @ Saskatchewan (5-1): Saturday, August 17 (4:00pm EDT)

Pick: Saskatchewan
Montreal looked worse than the Bombers last week. No way they march into Saskatchewan like the King of England and get their way.  This could very well be another blow out.

Calgary (5-1) @ BC (4-2): Saturday, August 17 (9:00pm EDT)

Pick: BC
BC just doesn’t lose at home.  On the other hand Calgary’s looking a lot like the best team in the West.  Gotta pick someone, go with the home team.

Edmonton (1-5) @ Toronto (4-2): Sunday, August 18 (7:00pm EDT)

Pick: Toronto
Toronto has found their stride.  Although this probably wont be as lopsided as the Argos/Als game last week a Toronto win is as close to guaranteed as you can get in football.

Last Week

(1-1) That’s what you get when you ride the hot hand.

Season

(12-12) Still throwing darts.

Bet you can’t do better.  Actually, you probably can.  Leave your picks below.

  1. Just for the hell of it I pick..
    Bombers
    The Green A-holes
    Stamps
    And I’ll agree with you on the Argosnots

    • Yeah I got ribbed by a few this weekend…

      Glad you like the Jigsaw piece, thanks for the feedback, there’s always more where that came from.

  2. I feel like a bag of crushed assholes for picking the pussy-cats this week. The only thing that’ll make it better is if Max Hall pulls this out of the fire… Third quarter is gonna show us who he is. Go BLUE!
