captaincanuck12 Posted October 12, 2022 Report Share Posted October 12, 2022 As crappy as the East is, it seems like every team has something to play for and make for some (hopefully) exciting football down the stretch.

I forget if it was on Twitter or during the game that they said Rourke is already walking in a boot and could be seen this year... Like come on. He claims on Twitter he has no biases whatever. He's in the same boat as Rod Pederson as far as I'm concerned. Absolute clown. JCon, AB BomberFan, Firekid and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During the 04 playoffs between Flames and Nucks he was all but wearing a Nucks jersey up there. It was something. Having said that, I'm certain he's an awesome dude...

He's always desperate, with Naylor, to get attention, especially down south.

He yup cannot cannot shut his yap all things Vancouver. If he said that XFL thing he loses so much creditably to me. Like are you really that stupid to say that? Now I know what to ask him if I see him in person in Regina at the Cup week. “HEY Farham you think the CFL still NEEDS the XFL to survive?”😆 He is a decent panel host, I’m sure a nice guy in person but I really like Kate. He is basically Meh to me anyways. Naylor I really like on the panel. Great insight and energy.

Mark H. Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 Based on current records and the remainder of the schedule, here are my predictions West BC splits with Winnipeg, Calgary splits with Sask BC and Calgary finish tied in the standings, and it comes down to their season series, to determine who gets the home playoff game Which means BC would finish second, Calgary third Sask does not get the crossover, because I don't see Hamilton losing even one game to Ottawa, they are currently tied and SSK needs to finish AHEAD East Toronto beats Edmonton tonight, which will give them a 4 point lead over the Als TOR and MTL will split their remaining games, which will give TO first in the East. The Als are not consistent enough to win both games, but they will take first place if they do, as they would finish tied but win the season series Hamilton will win out against Ottawa, but still finish 3rd, as the Als should win one more game TBURGESS, ddanger and Brandon 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
