2 Games of Consequence This Week

[Myron]

The Winnipeg/Edmonton game is meaningless as Edmonton has already clinched #1 in the west and Winnipeg has clinched #2. The Montreal/Ottawa game is meaningless as Montreal has clinched #1 in the East and Ottawa is out.

But the other 2 games have significance. If Toronto wins or goes to OT they finish 2nd in the East (unbelievable). If they lose to Calgary then Hamilton gets the spot. And who do they play??? They play the loser of the B.C./Saskatchewan game while the winner of that game goes to Winnipeg.

So the loser of the BC/Saskatchewan game probably hosts the crappy Argos or Ticats while the winner of the game gets the honor of playing at Winnipeg. Sheesh :com: Talk about a disincentive to winning.

So how do you play that game when you know both teams will be trying to lose??? Something tells me there will be a lot of "questionable" drops and such. UNDER 49 for 5 units!!!! To win the game I'm leaning to Saskatchewan for 1 simple reason. Terry Glenn is trying to win a spot in Saskatchewan next year while Allen is safe and will likely retire soon anyways. So while Glenn can't really afford to have poor statistics, for Allen it really doesn't matter. Nevertheless something tells me we'll see a lot of slipping during the running game on the slippery turf of the dome

I heard the total was 20:shrug: LOL

Myron.... those were my first thoughts exactly... both teams should want to lose this game.... But do you really think the coaches can tell their players to go out there and lose???

This will be interesting to see how it plays out... i'm disapointed that the winner gets punished.... i've been looking forward to this game all year.... Die hard Rider fan living in BC... I always go to the game in Green... Last year was a blast when Sask romped them like 41-7 or something like that... anyways i'll be in ROW #3 on the 20 yard line of the Riders side....

Still thinking about this game.... but still find it hard to have them throw the game with out it being too Obvious...

Wouldn't it be hilarious though if it was a 0-0 tie... in the CFL where you should beable to get atleast 1 pt without a problem... Who dares to score first in this one .... LOL

Anyways... for now i'll put 5.5 to win 5.0 units on Under 47....

Actually I thought what would be funny is if the game is 0-0 and on the last play of the game, the team runs the ball out of their own end zone for a safety. I can just envision the defensive team doing what it can to keep the QB or Punter or ? from getting to the end zone .

 

[Korn]

Ok... already have 5 units on the Under 47...

now for the side.... like Myron mentioned both teams should want to lose.... but on the other hand both teams could use momentum headin into the playoffs.... Sask should definatly be looking for a road win..... but who knows.... but from the words of the players theres been a lot of talk from the lions saying stuff like owhell what will the commish do if we throw the game... he's our owner.... and stuff like that.....

Plus the fact that Sask has done pretty good in the past in BC.... plus if both teams do decide to mess around and lose the game with an intentional safety or something then you have to look at Sask in this game... getting +3.5 in a game that could be decided by so few points this is a bonus.....

the only worry is that if one team shows up tonight and blows the other out it could cause the game to go over...

adding Sask +3.5 -106 5.3 to win 5.0 :firing:


not the prettiest write up... but in a hurry to get ready and head to the game....

yawn easy $$$$$ on the under
what a funny game:lol:
even though the riders played like that they still have a chance in the east!

 

[Korn]

WOW.... all I can say is I sure hope the Riders were not trying that game.... that was pathetic.... and tough to be sitting in that crowd wearing my 1995 Sask Grey Cup Jacket with my bright green Rider T shirt as well.... ouch... that was pathetic....

atleast the under came thru..... 1-1 -0.3 units....


We'll see who's laughing when BC gets romped by Winnipeg and Sask goes by Tor or Ham...

LOL

Easy money .

I have no comment on the Winnipeg/Edmonton game. Without doubt the 2 teams will be playing each other in 2 weeks and I doubt either team wants to give anything away. Also look for regulars to sit out. If I were to bet anything there it would be on the UNDER.

YTD 72-75 -1.17

2 final games of the regular season... Ottawa in Montreal.... and Calgary in Toronto.... Montreal just dominates Ottawa this year.... however in the final game that means more to Ottawa the spread of 14 is too much for Montreal.... however montreal is still good enough to cover it with their backups probably.... safer play is just the Montreal ML though..

2nd game is Calgary in Toronto... Playoffs are in Toronto's hands... they win they advance.. .they lose they go home.... So they will be treating this like a Playoff game... Calgary meanwhile just looking to be spoilers... I look for Toronto to be ready and step it up a notch today.... Wish I would have grabbed the -2 earlier... up to -4 now... so i'll just play this ML with Montreal..

ML Parlay Montreal -600 + Toronto -175 3.6 to win 3.0 units...

[Korn]

Ouch.... Toronto wins with a late FG.... but then Montreal loses by 1 after giving up an 85 yard punt return with about 2 minutes left in the game.... and then Montreal fumbles the ball on Ottawa's 5 yard line with about 1 minute left...

I wonder if losing their last two home games will have any effect on Montreals momentum.... along with a week off.... this may throw Montreal out of synch a bit....

0-1 -3.6....

YTD 72-76 -4.77
