#1-8, Can’t really argue just now. #9, I’m sure there will be one game late in the regular season when Oliveira’s helmet is locked in a vault and he is strapped to a training table, under guard, while the rest of the team plays the game. Based on how he is currently playing, and how he feeds off the competition it would probably take those actions, plus more to keep him out of a game. #10, You never know.
If one only based Bomber’s Grey Cup chances on their performance vs. the hard-hitting but wobbly Green Riders Saturday nite - you’d be hard-pressed to put them down at anything less than 87% to win the west ~ a bit longer odds to win Grey Cup vs. a hepped up Toronto organization featuring a great young coach (NFL bound?) Dinwiddie, an all-star QB (along w/ Zak), solid 1-2 running punch in AJO & Harris plus far better return men. Bombers would be favored but maybe at 58 to 60%.
1 - I’ve never been very good at sports predictions so I don’t even try.
2 - Often a won/lost record includes some very ugly wins and some very “artistic” losses, and everything in between. That’s why I keep watching.
they have looked bad times losing to teams they should have beat and they have looked really good unbeatable if they are going to win the grey cup this year they have to be more consistant
