We're packing for our upcoming trip to the Land of the Rouge, a couple of weeks to PE Island and Nova Scotia, where we try to see which ancestors were hanged as horse thieves. My ancestors on my Dad's side came to Canada at a very interesting time in 18th century Canadian history. Too bad it has no effect on my CFL picking efforts.
Lions in the Birds' cage, will they survive? Montreal by 9
Argonauts have trouble navigating the Rideau Canal Ottawa by 7
Riders gallop to Winnipeg, but go home with their tails down. Winnipeg by 12
Maybe a team from Alberta will win this one. Edmonton by 8

A very productive Labour Day weekend: the Riders win a tight one over Winnipeg, Hamilton completes the comeback over Toronto, and Calgary keeps Edmonton out of the end zone.
Thanks as well to Reever for managing the post last week!
The middle of the pack racks up solid points over the last couple of weeks, but tommytrump keeps pace with a 3-point lead.
Breaking a run of slates with heavy favourites, there are a couple of compelling coin tosses this week.
WEEK 13
B.C. @ Montreal (Friday, September 6)
B.C. hasn't been as bad as their record shows. But man, that record is terrible.
Toronto @ Ottawa (Saturday, September 7)
As bad as the Argos have been, they've been competitive in their last couple of games - and a reeling Ottawa team may be their best chance to notch a second win.
Saskatchewan @ Winnipeg (Saturday, September 7)
The Banjo Bowl is the legit game of the week. If Saskatchewan wins, they take over first place in the West. If Winnipeg wins, they're cruisin'.
Calgary @ Edmonton (Saturday, September 7)
Is it too early to call this the Crossover Bowl? (Probably.)
Good luck!
