CFL Pick 'Em, Week Seventeen: Metric tonnes of Thanksgiving drama played out last week, from Tuesday kickoffs to holiday Monday pumpkin pie. I'm sure many of you scored points last week, but I haven't quite got around to that part of the gig yet. Do not adjust your set, but please do continue to make your picks inside.

Ottawa runs up the points but the Argos pull off a one-handed comeback for the win. Hamilton rides a big first half to a comfortable victory over the Riders. Edmonton digs in deep to stifle the powerful Calgary offence and grab that tie atop the division. Winnipeg heads into Vancouver, and leaves with a big comeback win. And hey! Toronto wins in Montreal to go 2-0 on the week and grab a share of the division.

I'm still in travel mode so the standings will be a little late again this week. Sorry for the delay!

WEEK 17

Four weeks left and four playoff spots still up for grabs. Who wants one?

Winnipeg @ Ottawa (Friday, October 16)
Ottawa's gunning to get back to a home playoff game, while Winnipeg's just gunning to get back into the playoffs. Both these teams seem to only end up in tight games, so watch your spread this week.

Calgary @ Toronto (Saturday, October 17)
Calgary just lost their first-place spot to Edmonton, while Toronto's strong week has pushed them into second place. Momentum is a factor - but is environment? Toronto will play yet another home game on the road this week.

B.C. @ Edmonton (Saturday, October 17)
B.C.'s neck and neck with Winnipeg for the last playoff spot in the West, while Edmonton's on some kinda streak. You know what I say about streaks. At least I hope you do, because I forgot to write it down.

Hamilton @ Montreal (Sunday, October 18)
Hamilton's offence has returned to earth somewhat over the past couple of weeks, but Montreal's has fallen off the map. I fear the confines of Stade Molson will be not too friendly for the home side this week.

Good luck!

Another week of no games on ESPN2 so they can bring the important match-up between Northern Jibbip State and Whatsamatta University. Sigh.
