Coming into the final in the Big O you had to know Calvillo and the Als offense wasn't going to be stopped by the Argo defense. It's the Toronto offense that stinks and in my opinion was vastly overrated the entire season. I would say that Hamilton would beat Toronto eight times out of ten if they were to meet in the same atmosphere, same scenario as last week in Hamilton. In the end it's my own fault for touching base with the b.s. CFL today. I should have stayed away from the damm CFL thread and wagered soley on the NFL.
          The last thing Toronto's offense was overrated... They just controlled the ball and threw dump passes and Ran with Boyd..

            Oh, gimme a break!! I sort of felt it was not exactly the best bet. But it never occured to me that Toronto would be THIS BAD!! And why Montreal had to play like there was no tomorrow when the game had already been decided before the fourth??!! This is just plain ugly!! I got totally buried in the NFL also and handed all my winnings from the whole hockey weekend. Two weeks in a row, nasty. I just hate Sundays, as if I did not warn someone here last week. I have no other choice than chase a bit now. Saskatchewan ML 1 unit, Sask + 7.5 2 units. I lean towards the under here but will wait for live betting. This is like masochism. I really don´t care at this point. GL with your bets, boys!

                Certainly have to tip our hats to the Montreal Alouettes for their dominating performance over the visitng Toronto Argonauts earlier today. As for the Argos and their ridiculous inept performance and the one-sided domination on the scoreboard by Montreal today, I still think the Ti-Cats would have been the better challenger for the Als. Maybe Barker and his beaten-up Toronto team will think twice next time and run out onto the field in the direction they were supposed to emerge as opposed to displaying their cockiness by taking a different route in a far superior team's confines.


                Go---Als---Go!!!
                Al-ouetta-jony-Alouetta

                Also wanna tip my hat to the western conference final winner, the Saskatchewan Roughriders who knocked off the hometown Calgary Stampeders 24-20 in a thrilling contest out in Calgary on a frigid afternoon.

                    Oh, BB and the rest, I feel very sorry You had that game capped right, I believe. I would have tailed, if it wasn´t for that "feeling" of mine that the history will repeat itself and that it will be the Raiders and the Alouettes in the Grey Cup again. Now I also believe that Saskatchewan´s gonna win this time! Anyhow, I healed the NFL wounds, cause besides playing Sask both on the spread and ML I also managed to buy the under live at almost even money after the first quarter. But I can´t enjoy it because of your hard loss. I believe you´re gonna hit the last game hard and make it all back to end the season on the + side!! I can´t wait, GL for now!

                      Thanks Dharm... Good calls... I know Andycapper also faded one of my picks... I'm no so
                      egotistical that I think people should blindly tail what I think... Why do you think Ido the writeups and the Raw numbers...I see what I see.. other see what other storyline, or statistics they see... in the end I hope whatever helps you win...helps...

                      I apologize to anyone that tailed... I know it doesn't make anyone feel better, but we shared the same bet.. ok really.. trust me I probaly bet alot more... Hopefully next week we can make some good things happen...

                          I think I'm about to Unload on the Al's... maybe worth Fading.....

                          I'm still getting Al's -3.5 ... It will be closer to 3 Deg (C) / 40 (F)... I thought Toronto could handle them... They neutralized every weapon they had... Although this is essentially a "home" game for the Riders...

                            Updated Scorecard

                            Playoff Week 2: -12.0 Units...

                            Net Total = -9.85

                            Sucks... What can I say... I'm nailing the Grey Cup... fade me if you don't think so...

                                  Leaning Montreal -3.5 and Over 51 at the moment... Nothing official yet... You may want to bet the farm on Sask and Under to win big though...

                                        I know you were joking about betting with points only . But hey, I really wish you end the season in profit, after all the good work you´ve done here so far! So I will totally hate going against you. It is possible that Montreal is going to win again, but I have no other choice than taking the Roughriders here. They certainly won´t wish to be remembered as the Grey cup losers for the second straight time. So motivation on their side is a little bigger, in my opinion. The different thing is if they are actually capable of beating Montreal. I suppose that if not with skills, they could do so with their heart here. But there´s still plenty of time and if I play anything, it will be the ML, so I´m not gonna worry about any movement of the spread. Looking forward to your preview as always!

                                          Go figure how there have been twice as many exciting Grey Cups as there have been snoozefest NFL Dull Bowls over the past decade.
                                          So don't forget to tune in on Sunday rubber ducky, you may miss something special if you don't!!!!

But hey, I really wish you end the season in profit, after all the good work you´ve done here so far! So I will totally hate going against you. It is possible that Montreal is going to win again, but I have no other choice than taking the Roughriders here. They certainly won´t wish to be remembered as the Grey cup losers for the second straight time. So motivation on their side is a little bigger, in my opinion. The different thing is if they are actually capable of beating Montreal. I suppose that if not with skills, they could do so with their heart here. But there´s still plenty of time and if I play anything, it will be the ML, so I´m not gonna worry about any movement of the spread. Looking forward to your preview as always!
                                            So far I'm thinking Saskatchewan Roughriders = Buffalo Bills...

                                              So don't forget to tune in on Sunday rubber ducky, you may miss something special if you don't!!!!
                                              D3 is a good guy... But his Argos got punted... To be honest I had a little backing them as well when their stock was poor... I REALLY wanted a Toronto Edmonton Final and I think I'd be taking the thread out to Edmonton to watch the final... Ok it's like 5 guys but still...

                                                That would be an awesome final!!

                                                This Grey Cup will be exciting. More so than most of the NFL games this week.

                                                    I want Montréal because they are less annoying than Roughrider fans. Not sure if it's less annoying or the fact that i don't understand French.

                                                                    I've tried to look at how I would see the Riders winning... and its obvious that "Revenge" is the key factor in play... along with all the "Watermelon helmets" that are being cut up as we speak...

                                                                    Everyone has an opinion.. and since it's my thread, and I'm expected to do so despite being on an 0-4 streak over the last 2 games... I will tell you that I don't care how many watermelons are in the stands, and how much the "rematch" is an obvious Rider Victory, because, "if not for the 13th man last year"...

                                                                    But that's what I'm telling you... I think despite everyone saying that the Al's are NOT as good as they were... that they are as good as EVER... DESPITE everything against them... Last week was basically a Rest for them... barely hurt, barely touched.. They didn't even step on the pedal and won that game... Now they are WELL rested... Angry from "Hotelgate" (in which they have been complaining that their hotels weren't as good as the Riders - And they're right) ... and are basically the better team...

                                                                    Saskatchewan has won 3 in a row... somehow.. Someway.. they have put ALL their heart and souls into the last 3... AND they haven't played a complete game in about half a season (Add 4 game losing streak before that).. as much as some believe this is about momentum.. It's about how they got here... and that's the HARD way... How many emotional, hard faught games do the Riders have left... I will say NONE... I think Montreal disappoints the crowd early and ROLLS over the Riders and reminds everyone WHY they are the class of the league... I say Als by 14...

                                                                    I hate to "chase" this game... but my seasonal record is already poor based on a few ugly chases... I will make another 5 Units play, not enough to get out of the hole... But enough to say I will be serious about this game to the point where I hope to make up some for last week.. .

                                                                    I like the Over.. But it's also heading over 52 in a hurry from the 50.5 that is was last night... If the Riders are held... I'm worried about the under... I will still have to think about the line movement here...

                                                                    Thus so far..

                                                                      BOL with the Als in today's great exciting Canadian Football League extrordinaire final game called the Grey Cup classic BBizz. I normally take your advice and tail you but during the week I made up my mind to take the Saskatchewan Rough Riders and I have to stick to my guns in this one. I think the western Riders have a big advantage called the 'revenge' factor on their side and I believe it exists in a big way whether we like to believe it or not. Saskatchewan also had the much tougher road in getting to the big game than the Montreal club did, call it a paved road in comparison to sort of gravel road if you will. Taking out the BC Lions in OT in the semifinal game was in itself a character win for the Riders but then to have to win a game in the frozen Calgary tundra last week was the icing on the cake for me in making my decision. The Als to their credit did walk through the Argos with ease but they still had to perform, even if it was or could have been considered nothing more than an additional practise for today's match in Edmonton.
                                                                      Lets hope for an exciting game whoever comes out on top and once again bol to you.
