              Think the Lions might be the team to beat this year (well, again)...From what I'm hearing their depth is crazy, fair number turning down some potential NFL to stay. Cool seeing their TC in Kamloops. Good luck this year Biz

                      Yeah same, picked up two tickets off my friend's season ticket package. Sucks that the preseason home game and regular season are separated by like 4 1/2 weeks. It'll be interesting to see how they handle it.

                            Won't be betting against my Bombers but if I were you guys....1* BC -7

                            Only bet I've placed so far....

                            1* Edmonton -2 @ 1.91


                            I was hoping the spread for Calgary would be smaller. I'll watch the numbers and see if anything changes that I like. Don't like the spread at all in Hamilton/Sask too. GL everyone, looking forward to the weekend!

                              ANy early thoughts on some futures? Lions 3:1 seems unfair in many ways... Riders at 11:1 as the biggest dog...

                                Well it looks like BC, Sask, Tor and Ham all have rookie coaches this year. Should be interesting, having half the league with rookie head coaches.

                                  Don't count the Esks out - I think Tillman is a great Gm and if he says Gyles is the man, I will go with it until he proves otherwise... 8:1 at the moment...

                                      Interesting how the media wants to blow this year up as "the powerful Eastern Conference" - Because they got some old time QB's stolen away from the west...

                                      I love what R. Ray did for Edmonton - But honestly, if he was still good enough to run our offense - he would be in Edmonton... Burris - Long way over the hill after last year in Calgary - Hamilton will NOT be better with him at all...

                                        Saskatchewan @ Hamilton -7 O/U 51

                                        Head to Head
                                        2011 Tied 1-1 (W3@Ham) Ham 33-3, (W18@Sask) Sask 19-3
                                        2010 Saskatchewan 2-0, (W5@Sask) Sask 37-24, (W13@Ham) Sask 32-25

                                        Hamilton has a new Coach, George Cortez, and New (old) QB in Hank Burris who have worked together in Calgary to create an offensive minded team - They brought in some receivers to help move the ball vertically as well...

                                        Saskatchewan has tumbleweeds...

                                        2x Hamilton -7
                                        2x Hamilton/Sask Over 51

                                          Winnipeg @ BC -7.5 O/U 51

                                          Head to Head –
                                          2011 - Win 2-1 - (W5@Win) Win 25-20, (W7@BC) Win 30-17, (Grey Cup) BC 34-23
                                          2010 - Tied 1-1 - (W14@BC) BC 16-14, (W15@Win) Win 47-35
                                          2009 - Win 2-0 - (W7@BC) Win 37-10, (W16@Win) BC 24-21
                                          Looks like everyone wants to trap us with Winnipeg here - Lots of speculation as to Dogs in week 1 - and this, if we liked the Peg would be a perfect spot to take... but remember in the CFL the hook on the TD means very little - very few games as I researched last year fall on 7 - so It's mostly trying to entice the NFL watchers to think they are "smart" in taking the hook...

                                          BC won 12 of their last 13 games and just kept getting stronger as the year went on... This team may have a new coach, but unless Coach Benevides is an idiot - he will get the most out of a motivated team...

                                          Lots of new faces on the Bombers Offensive line, including a first time starter in their Center... Lions Feast!

                                          2x BC -7.5
                                          1x Over 51

                                              Toronto @ Edmonton PK O/U 48.5

                                              Head to Head
                                              2011 - 2-0 Edm (W5@Edm) Edm 26-25, (W17@Tor) Edm 31-24
                                              2010 - 1-1, (W6@Edm) Tor 29-28, (W13@Halifax) Edm 24-6

                                              As things change - They likely stay the same... Edmonton Squeaks out wins vs the Argos, and it is in the opinion of this sports degenerate that if Ricky Ray was good enough to still be in Edmonton - He would still be in Edmonton - However - He is not - He is in Toronto - lacking a #1 Wide Receiver - I'm not sure where the points will be coming from... I see a messy sloppy game to keep the score low but Esks come out on top...

                                              Homer call or not -

                                              4x Edmonton PK
                                              2x Tor/Edm Under 48.5

                                                Montreal @ Calgary -2.5 O.U 54

                                                Head to Head
                                                2011 Split 1-1 (W9@Cal) Cal 38-31, (W18@Mon) Mon 32-27
                                                2010 Split 1-1 (W14@Cal) Cal 46-21, (W15@Mon) Mon 46-19Cal QB Tate we saw last year will be gun slinging early and often and in their last 4 meetings the lowest combined score has been 59... Despite offenses typically a little off early in any season, I see and hope to watch some back and forth football... We all know what Montreal QB A.Cavillo brings, and he is will return with more motivation after the horrible last blowout game he played in BC last year...

                                                4x Montreal/Calgary Over 54
                                                1x Montreal +2.5
