....In the name of all the competitors I promise that we shall take part in this week's picks, respecting and abiding by the rules which govern them, committing ourselves to a non-monetary gambling pool without doping and without drugs, in the true spirit of sportsmanship, for the glory of sport and the honour of our teams...........
QB - Kevin Eakins (Hml)
QB - Michael Bishop (Tor)
HB - Jesse Lumsden (Hml)
HB - Eric Lapointe (Mtl)
WR - Paris Jackson (BC)
WR - Sylvain Girard (Mtl)
DL - Felipe Claybrooks (Mtl)

DB - Tay Cody (Hml)
DB - Ryan Philips (BC)
K - Mark McLoughlin (BC)
I may change my list if I can think of better players who have not been picked yet in the Fantasy Pool this year.
I have picked both Lumsden and Hebert this year just to let you know. One of those crazy Als fans has also picked Botterill (I think they try to outdo each other by picking the most obscure starting Montreal defender they can find.)
Dang. I don't know what I'm going to do. It's not easy trying to establish a list of guys no-one should pick while still having a tiny chance they actually do something on the field.
And as for Word, I would not pick him even if he was the only d-lineman of the league playing.
you know…considering the teams they are playing…some of those players might still be the high scorer of the week, even if they only play one half or so.
It's a crapshoot taking East players this week, but, here goes nothing (which is what I might end up scoring):
QB: Burris and Calvillo (not sure how much Allen will be in this week)
RB: J. Johnson (Tor) and Warren
WR/SB: Mitchell and Copeland
DL: Maxie and Cheatwood
LB: Eiben and Grace
DB: Karikari and Ivory
K: DeAngelis
Wow, what a tough week. I think I'll do the crazies and load up on players from teams whose games mean something. The darts have been discarded...I'm thinking about it this week...(DANGER! Last place here I come!)
QB Burris, Ray
RD Reynolds, Davis
WR Thelwell, Tucker
DL Maxie, Mountford
LB Grace, Simpson
DB Ivory, Karikari
K DeAngeles
Thanks again Fooks & Eskimos 32001
Good Luck to everyone else!
Crappy. I know what it is like. We wnet 6-1 in my grade 12 year, and lost by 1 point in the finals. We won it all the year before though, so I do know both sides. You guys losing a lot of players?
this was our chance to be provincial champs, our o-line this year averages about 280 lbs. a person, next year it'll be about 200 a person...plus we're losing 11 starting defense players, the players who were key in building us the best defense in a long time. the only positives we got going is we got a few real good players coming up...maybe not provincial calabre next year, but we'll be okay
