Yes its too early to tell

And yes we information hogs will have our preseason predictions ready by mid September, if we have enough data by then....

But while we sit picking the peach fuzz out of our navel as we await the NFL & CFL drafts, would it be worth our while to test our judgment of reality skills ?

Mofe specifically, who has better realistic hopes ... and who are deluding themselves about their coming disaster this season.

Under the delusional category I see both Edmonton & Regina ... in Edmonton there is complacency and resting on their laurels ... meanwhile in Regina the off-season roster surgery is going to devastate local fan expectations

Toronto seems to have the best chance for a quantum leap upwards, for no other reason than the jubilation of finally having a stable place to practice and play.

Hamilton might finally run out of bad luck. Good luck may no longer be on Ottawa's side.

Huffer going upstairs in Calgary will likely prove to be no more than a blip in their machinery.

Management problems in Montreal & Vancouver might become more obvious.

And in Winnipeg, we finally win the Grey Cup .... we just don't know which year.

How will it be different? We will have to wait till the 2nd quarter of the first game before we are eliminated from playoff contention.

That is frosty if not downright crusty like a snowbank in March. 

I've called them out the last 3 years after the opening kickoff. No one's called me Kreskin yet.

I'd give him till LDC or banjo bowl as long as were not 0 and 5 out of the gate. lot of season left to salvage if you promote Hall or Lapo as interm 

If we lost all 5 by less than a TD I might be tolerant expecting a turnaround to finally appear .... but if we are blown out in 3 of the 5, then we have the wrong guy at the helm

For what it is worth, the real crucible is whether MOS's heart & soul can be transformed into team spirit and mutuality, whether skills can be brought into a harmonious orchestration  ... I believe we used to call that Swaggerville

I loved Swaggerville .... and it got us to the Grey Cup

I predict the delusions will morph into lusions thus making the delusions, lusional...

I'd consider it a good thing if we had reason to swag..

Revive Swaggerville!!

We play Calgary twice, Edmonton twice, Montreal and Hamilton.  I would think we could go 3-3. Split with Calgary and Edmonton and we take Montreal.
