CFL Pick 'Em, Week Eighteen: We're in the thick of the home stretch with three weeks left to play. Twelve games times three points means that anybody could win, provided they nail every single game remaining. (Except owlhouse. Sorry owlhouse.) Buy your baby a new pair of shoes and make your picks inside.

My points were 5 this week, not 2. It looks like the total is correct, though.

The curses of copy/paste. You are correct. 5 points for 51 total.

Relegation zone. If I finish with the Costanza, does this mean I'm playing in the Ontario regional league next year?

You'll be making picks for the Hamilton Hurricanes.

Ottawa holds off a late Winnipeg surge to clich their first playoff berth in franchise history. Calgary gets off to a strong start and doesn't look back, beating Toronto in Hamilton. They needed overtime to do it, but Edmonton gets the win over B.C., just barely hanging onto their first-place spot. And Hamilton manages to keep Montreal out of the end zone until the fourth quarter, cruising to a twelve-point victory.
jags nails the Ottawa spread en route to a seven-point week and an all-but-guaranteed victory. argoal also nails the Ottawa spread, but it's not enough to prevent JPR from moving into sole possession of second place.
It's down to the wire: with three weeks left to play, we have three clinches in the east and two in the west, with a possible east-to-west crossover still in play.
WEEK 18
Montreal @ Toronto (Friday, October 23)
Toronto's in the playoffs, but they've been having a tough time with their "home on the road" games, and Ottawa's coming up fast in their review mirror. But Montreal's on a tough four-game slide and has been playing some pretty rough ball. An opportunity for Toronto to reverse the momentum?
Hamilton @ B.C. (Friday, October 23)
These two teams appear to be headed in opposite directions: Hamilton is sitting on top of the East and has won two straight, while B.C. is struggling to hang onto a playoff spot, having lost two straight. On the other hand, B.C.'s losses have been very close, and Hamilton's still learning about life without Zach Collaros.
Ottawa @ Winnipeg (Saturday, October 24)
Speaking of close losses, Winnipeg's still smarting from a three-point loss in the opener of the home-and home. They'd better be motivated to equalize this week or they'll fall out of the playoff race altogether.
Edmonton @ Saskatchewan (Saturday, October 24)
In other news, Saskatchewan is still playing football games.
Good luck!
