Week 20 Picks I have to admit, two fortnights ago I didn’t think this week would matter but here we are! Montreal @ Hamilton: Friday, November 3 (7:00pm EDT) Pick: Hamilton OK, so this game doesn’t mean anything except to the guys playing for jobs next season.  Hamilton for sure. Winnipeg @ Calgary: Friday, November…

Week 19 Picks Some teams are playing for next year, others for home playoff games.  How much does that ever matter in the CFL? It’s debatable. Hamilton @ Ottawa: Friday, October 27 (7:00pm EDT) Pick: Hamilton Hamilton’s playing some good ball and should have beat Calgary, why not? Montreal @ Saskatchewan: Friday, October 27 (9:30pm…

Week 18 Picks This could be the last meaningful full week of football.  Enjoy! Saskatchewan @ Calgary: Friday, October 20 (9:00pm EDT) Pick: Calgary As I’ve been saying for 7 weeks: Calgary may never lose again. Winnipeg @ Toronto: Saturday, October 21 (4:00pm EDT) Pick: Winnipeg Winnipeg’s severely banged up, from QB to LB.  They are…

Week 17 Picks The picture in the West should become pretty clear this week.  The East, as always, remains murky. Hamilton @ Calgary: Friday, October 13 (7:00pm EDT) Pick: Calgary As I’ve been saying for weeks and weeks: Calgary may never lose again.  I wouldn’t be happier to be wrong this week. Ottawa @ Saskatchewan:…

Week 16 Picks Here we are, the home stretch.  For some, losing signals the start of garbage time and try outs for next year.  For others, winning can lock up a home playoff game. Hamilton @ Winnipeg: Friday, October 6 (8:30pm EDT) Pick: Winnipeg Trap game? Maybe, though it looks like Hamilton has thrown in…

Week 15 Picks A lot of meaningful football to be played this week! Saskatchewan @ Ottawa: Friday, September 29 (7:00pm EDT) Pick: Saskatchewan Until Ottawa gets their starter back I don’t see how they can win. Montreal @ Calgary: Friday, September 29 (10:00pm EDT) Pick: Calgary As I have said for the past four weeks.  Calgary…

Week 14 Picks I hate bye weeks and The High Commissioner has decreed we are to get an additional next season… Ugh. Ottawa @ Winnipeg: Friday, September 22 (8:00pm EDT) Pick: Winnipeg This has to be the lock of the week, no?  Ottawa’s starting who?  Some third stringer? Hamilton @ BC: Friday, September 22 (11:00pm…

Week 13 Picks Can we have 3-game Saturday again please? Saskatchewan @ Hamilton: Friday, September 15 (7:00pm EDT) Pick: Saskatchewan I guess Hamilton has a chance but I don’t really see it happening. Edmonton @ Toronto: Saturday, September 16 (4:00pm EDT) Pick: Edmonton Edmonton can be had but even with injuries they are still much better…

Banjo Bowl Weekend Picks Buy extra beer this weekend, Saturday is a triple play! Montreal @ BC: Friday, September 8 (10:00pm EDT) Pick: BC They’ve been skidding but BC’s not going to let the birds steal a win in their house. Banjo Bowl: Saskatchewan @ Winnipeg: Saturday, September 9 (3:00pm EDT) Pick: Winnipeg Winnipeg was way…

Week 11 Picks Where did the summer go?  Where did your money go?  Stop betting on Hamilton! Ottawa @ Montreal: Thursday, August 31 (7:30pm EDT) Pick: Montreal Montreal came oh so close to pulling it off against Winnipeg.  Gotta give them the nod at home.  Can anyone explain why this is being played on Thursday?…
