On friday we have, what I believe to be, the eastern semi final preview. I was thinking before the lines came out that this would be a good spot to take the Bombers money line around +120 to +140. Turns out that Winnipeg has done enough in the last 2 weeks to be favorite (or Edmonton has stunk enough, or both). Edmonton cant seem to be able to tackle anybody right now, and I kinda like what I see out of Winnipeg's offence lately. If this game was being played in July or Aug. It would look like a 10 point win for Edm easy, but the tides are changing in the CFL and I think Winnipeg wins, but I will give the points because I hate to lay more than 20 cents juice. This strategy didnt help me last week, but I cant change who I am over 1 game.
Winnipeg -1.5, -106 (1 unit)
I am going to have to layoff the Stamps this week for 2 reasons. Everytime we have a back 2 back situation I usually look to bet the opposite direction from the first games results, so I should be looking at betting Toronto or over. I cannot bet on Toronto right now, and not just because they are playing the Stamps, it's because they are horrible. And as for the over, Toronto has scored 13ppg in their last 5 vs. teams not named tiger-cats. I cant touch either. The other thing keeping me away from the Stamps is that they havent won SU in the Skydome in forever. I dont know how long it's been, I cant remember of hand, and my stats only go back 5 years. Does anybody know how long it has actually been? Please dont tell me it was the 92 grey cup vs. Winnipeg. Somebody at work told me it was 10 years but I dont know for sure I think he was throwing out round numbers. If we have won in Toronto since I graduated high school, I cant remember it.
I am leaning MTL in the sunday game, but havent played it yet. Can anybody tell me what Montreal's record is when they play these 11am games? Their last 2 have been incredible I was wondering if it goes back further.
