I see that the kickoff is scheduled for 6:32 pm eastern time, so that's what we'll make the deadline to play the contest.

Montreal 35

Carnivore, Papsrus already has Montreal - 35. If you like Montreal, pick a tiebreaker below 30 or above 60.

Montreal 55

HBJ, Indestructible already has Montreal - 55. If you like Montreal, pick a tiebreaker below 30 or above 60.

30 - Big Al

35 - Papsrus

40 - Bright Moments

45 - Van Basten II

50 - GA Russell

The following are picking Saskatchewan:

20 - Danasgoodstuff

25 - Aparxa

30 - BFrank

45 - BClugston

50 - GregK

55 - Harold Z

65 - John Tapscott

That leaves us with the following good numbers still available:

Montreal - 25, 65, 70, 75

Saskatchewan - 35, 40, 60, 70, 75

Apparently there are two Canadian acts this year: Theory of a Deadman and Andree Watters & Suzie McNeil.

I'm in with Montreal 70

[Tom 1960]

Montreal with 75!

[GA Russell]

This leaves us with five good numbers left:

Montreal - 20, 80

Saskatchewan - 75, 80, 85

[medjuck]

I'll take Montreal and 25.

I always wanted to see Ottawa versus Saskatchewan. Wouldn't that be The Rough Riders versus the Rough Riders or has one of them changed their name?

medjuck, Carnivore already has Montreal and 25. See my post immediately before yours for the available numbers.

The first year I attended a Canadian league game was 1976, and the Grey Cup that year featured Ottawa versus Saskatchewan. That was the game where Tony Gabriel caught the TD pass in the last minute. Ottawa does not have a team currently, but is expected to have one in 2013.

[medjuck]

OK I'll take Montreal 20.

[vajerzy]

Saskatchewan and 75!!

[T.D.]

I don't follow the CFL at all, so have no clue.

But I'll take Saskatchewan 80...

[GA Russell]

This leaves us with these numbers left:

Montreal - 15, 80, 90

Saskatchewan - 10, 15, 85, 90

PS - Because it will be cold, I am expecting a low-scoring ballgame. But a CFL game with 85 or 90 points is not unheard of when they go into overtime. Overtime in the CFL is like US college ball.

Guess I'll take Montreal - 15

[Van Basten II]

I turned 40 this year, but that's in US years, so I'll take Montreal in 30.

Last time I checked our money was almost equal with yours

As I'm late to the party and an ex Prairie-bird, I'll go for Saskatchewan 15. And hope that they get a -30C snap to slow the action down.
