CFL Pick 'Em, Week Twenty: Well, folks, I've got the CFL Tiebreaker Rules open in a background tab, which means it must be the final week of the season. But don't bother to change your calculator's batteries. Leave that mathy stuff to me, and just make your picks inside.

Not that it makes a big difference, but I had another point (I had the margin as 3 for the Toronto-BC game).

If you picked the losing team, you only get the single point if you picked the spread exactly - margins don't count in that case.

Argos by 4, we need to start winning momentum for playoffs
This is tough, I hate hami but if they lose then Argos will play next week in hami where they've had no success. So, Ott by 3

Before next season, we need to convince Jagsnumberone to pick a favorite CFL team that would be wrong to ever pick against.

B.C. holds off the Argo comeback to grab a playoff spot despite a messy 7-10 record. Calgary rides roughshod over the Riders, but it's too little too late as they must settle for second in the division. Hamilton looks lost without Zach Collaros, as Ottawa needs only twelve points for the win. And Montreal can't quite get it done in Edmonton, losing out on a playoff spot for the first time in franchise history.
jags has all but clinched, barring a miracle ten-point week from the second-placers, who have their own race to worry about. JPR has snuck up and tied argoal again. Who will prevail?
The last week's games in a football season tend to be either Incredibly Meaningful or Completely Meaningless. This week we've got a bit of both.
WEEK 20
Winnipeg @ Toronto (Friday, November 6)
Winnipeg's out and Toronto is in. But Toronto's been on a tough slide lately and will certainly want to pick up momentum before hitting the postseason road.
Hamilton @ Ottawa (Saturday, November 7)
This game has All The Meaning: the East Division title, and its accompanying first-round bye, are at stake. If my math is right, Hamilton needs to win by at least six points. But having lost two straight and having scored a mere 19 points in those losses - it won't be easy.
Calgary @ B.C. (Saturday, November 7)
Both of these teams have their playoff matchup set: against each other. That's right, next week B.C. travels to Calgary in the West semi-final. So what plays do you run when you're facing your playoff opponent? Probably not very good ones.
Saskatchewan @ Montreal (Sunday, November 8)
And we round the season out with a battle of the basements. If you've been holding off all year on picking Saskatchewan to win, maybe now's your chance.
Good luck!
