1. I'm in a quandry
I despise Don Matthews w/ every fiber of my being, but I hate the Esks org more (I'm a Roughriders fan).

I can see the Esks winning it, though; I can't believe they aren't starting Maas..

2. When I was younger, I loved Edmonton because of Moon and ....
...Jim Germany. Those were truly some great Pro Football teams. So I'll have to pull for them...

4. I'll pick Montreal
Because Montreal is in socially progressive Quebec and Edmonton is in right wing Alberta, home of right wing jerk Ralph Klein.

6. Edmonton is the most liberal area of Alberta
If a Grit is going to be elected in Alberta, they'll be from Edmonton.

5. As a Calgarian, I am torn
I want a western team to win but not Edmonton! Sigh... why couldn't it have been any other western team? So, my money's on Montreal. Vive le Quebec libre! <heeee>

11. Eskimos are a slight favorite
At least here in Las Vegas and with offshore sportsbooks. Edmonton is -1.5 and the total is 56.5.

I didn't follow the CFL closely this season so I have no clue, but like always the Grey Cup will be fun to watch. And I guarantee Chris Berman will show some highlights on ESPN tonight.
