What a stinky week this last week was.  Anyway ... Iooks like this week the general consensus will be that all the home teams win.

How come the quiet people that don't comment often are in the lead?

this must be a mistake!!!

Why is it you have such issues with this game, see these same posts from you in this game every year.

Pretty sure Toronto lost .... big time.

Sorry, I am not trying to be difficult.  And yes it  is probably my memory that is failing me as I age,  I will write my picks down so I will never forget again this season.  Thanks again for doing this.

Funny thing is that I thought I'd picked Hamilton not Toronto.

I checked my picks on that other site.. "Hamilton @ Toronto - Ticats didn't look good last week but managed win anyway. Toronto will struggle early." I should have left the 'early' off completely. 🤣

I guess I clicked on the wrong team so no worries.

Oh great now everyone knows I made my picks at 1AM on a Wednesday 

I'd be more worried that everyone knows that you picked Toronto... :)

Thanks Rich. I was like "Did I vote? I don't think I voted. Maybe I did vote? What's my name again?"

It's pretty easy to accidentally click the close poll button when scrolling through on mobile.    So if it is ever closed early, just give me a shout.

this only happens to me when I am voting for the Argos at 1 in the morning...

If I was an Argo fan, I would only vote that late at night so as to avoid being outed.

That would like spotting a condor or white rhino....

Well, at least we know now we can't trust Northern Skunk with national classified information lest power intelligence sources get unmasked in Snowden fashion.

Lol jk

On another note .... It would appear the biggest Vegas loss would come if Montreal upset Hamilton, a game they seem to be a lock to lose here.

As regards the Rider/Argo game, it seems to me that the Argos have  QBs (Franklin and Bethel-Thompson)who might be good enough, but I do not see the Riders as having anyone close to those (with all due respect to Mr. Bennett). So maybe my favouring the Argos may not be so wrong.

I tried that Argo QB logic last week. I'd advise against it again. Plus, Riders at home on Canada Day, and their defence did not get as decimated by player turnover as their offence, despite losing Chris Jones. Until they actually show better, the Argos may be a pick to avoid as an underdog.

I'm trying to be objective here, but man I do not know how in the world you could ever reach that conclusion based on the results on the field.

With the help of world-class recreational pharmaceuticals and an undying disdain for the Riders.
