Montreal by 10 Saskatchewan by 18 Winnipeg by 22 BC by 8 Yes the similarity between my picks and apoch's does bother me.

There was a security breach at APEC in Sydney last week. Montreal by 15. A comedy team from 'The Chaser' used a fake motorcade to get through two police security roadblocks and within 10 metres of George Bush's hotel. Saskatchewan by 12. Even though one of them was dressed like Osama bin Laden. Winnipeg by 17. The police were probably fooled by the Canadian flags on the vehicles. BC by 10. Or the fact that they didn't know what Stephen Harper looked like.

Obviously, I'm not infallible as a CFL point spread picker, but I'm pretty convinced that the line-maker at SportSelect was sniffin' glue this week prior to setting these spreads. Agreed, the EE should play like their backs are against the wall, but my allegiance to this team has blurred my vision too much as of late (part of my mid-season slump). They just don't have that killer instinct and the Als are hot to trot on the heels of Sweetness Jr. I'll be taking the Als by 11. Calgary favored over the Riders because they put back-to-back wins over the lowly Esks??? Not a chance. Riders will continue their quest for le Coupe Grey in championship style. Saskatchewan by 17. Here's where SS might have at least picked the right favorite. The signing of CP doesn't translate to a sudden turnaround for the Tabbies, Bombers should take this one in a landslide. Winnie by 24. Once again, I don't even know who is starting for the Leos this week, but they're at home, they need to stay in the hunt if they're gonna have a shot at defending the crown. It shouldn't be close, but this might be the only squeaker this week. Lions by 3.

So maybe SportSelect wasn't completely goofy on fumes when they pegged the EE as faves?!?! MrFrisby, there's a reason why you're at the top of this leaderboard. Nice pick.

Calgary edges out Edmonton to sweep the home-and-home and take the big upset this week. Montreal holds their own against B.C. in a game I didn't see. Michael Bishop looks like he's taken things to a new level, especially against Hamilton, and Winnipeg dominates at home to even up the series with Saskatchewan.
