They've had most cfl games so far this year.

I'm playing Saskatchewan -2. They're improved and hosting BC, the team that knocked them out of the playoffs last year.

I like Sask alot myself.

My two plays this week will be:

Sask -2
Montreal -6

As much as I like the Sask game, I like the Montreal game even more. The Als are much better than the Ticats (who have yet to score a TD). I think this will be a rout of Hamilton.

Saskatchewan now -3.5 at Cris . . .

Re: Montreal Hamilton, I don't know, but I have a funny feeling about Hamilton game. Don't get me wrong, I'm not taking Hamilton, it's just that I can't bring myself to taking Montreal on the road. All the Hamilton players have been hearing is how lousy they're supposed to be and that's what scares me. You're probably right though it'll probably just end up being a run-of-the-mill blow-out and I'll wish I had have put something down on it, but I've decided to stay away from that game. Good luck, I'll be rootin' for you!

I will be playing the under again in the Argos game for the same reason i played the under last week. I do not believe Micheal Bishop is a top of the line QB....and firmly believe that he will be held in check more often than not. Against a dreadful Hamilton team he was only 17-31, and tho they did put up 30 points, most of that can be attributed to the Argo defence setting up near perfect field position for the offence more times than not. Add in the solid Argo defence to again hold the other offence in check and i believe that under 47.5 (pinnacle line) is the play this week.

I'm taking Calgary +145 over Toronto tonight on the moneyline.

cobra king and betplom, I like both of your calls! Will tail them both, thanks.

Montreal -6 is the best looking play for me this week. Hamilton is not even in the same league this year. They are so bad they could well go 2-16.

Just got that too-good-to-be-true feeling, so I'm staying away from the Al's. Last time I stayed away from a too-good-to-be-true type of spread, the team won in spades, so don't listen to me! Good luck Hulu!

Argos defeated Stampeders handily and they went over the game total on their own.

This was a big win for me! Why, because I didn't get home from work until halftime and never got my bet on Calgary down.

Not getting a losing wager down on time is just as rewarding as making a winning bet.

I'm on Sask -3 and Montreal -6.

small play on Edm +5.5
smaller play on Edm +175

Right now they are -7 and -7.5
