At this time tomorrow, the B.C. Lions will be celebrating a Grey Cup triumph. I can't see the Lions losing to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in tomorrow's CFL championship game and I can't see this game being close.
The Lions are better just about everywhere. They have the better quarterback, they have the better receivers, they have the better defensive line, they have the better secondary and they have better special teams.
Take nothing away from Paul Lapolice's team and take nothing away from Lapolice himself for turning a 4 win season last year to a Grey Cup appearance this year, but I just don't think Winnipeg has the horses. If they are to win this game, Buck Pierce will not only have to stay healthy, but play the game of his life. He certainly has the ability to do it on the game's biggest stage, but I don't see it happening.
Final score BC 36 Winnipeg 16

I guess we can scratch Scott Milanovich's name off the list of who the new Riders head coach will be. Milanovich is joining the Argos where he will have the title of assistant head coach. Interesting!

Organizers of the Vanier Cup have to be smiling from ear-to-ear after Friday's overtime thriller. That game had everything and it was very enjoyable to watch. Chances are that will be the best football game played at BC Place this weekend.

We thought the same for the 89 West Final, We thought the same for the 2009 Grey Cup, We thought the same for the 2001 Super Bowl, the 2008 Super Bowl, etc.
Anything can happen in a one game, winner take all scenario.
I thought there was supposed to be a freeze on announcements during GC week. So why the announcement about Milanovich?
The announcement on Milanovich was because TSN felt like gambling. It happens all of the time in the media, they can say whatever they want, then if it turns out they say they BROKE the story. If it doesn't end up true they just forget about it. There is no honour in media.
Ummm--Seahawks and lock of the week. Those words shouldn't be combined together Scruffy. HA HA HA!!!
