Well, that wasn’t too hard. A lot of us got it right on these. Forgot about coach of the year but that would be fairly obvious for the West & East.

So - I say Dinwiddie should take that this year. The rest - Kelly, Betts, Oliveira, Allen, Leake & Stiggers. Argos will dominate the awards. This year the East was tougher than the West. No team in the East finished below .500 vs the West - 19 wins to 12 for the East. I really don’t think it will be close in any of those categories, not to forget that whomever ends up 2nd has had outstanding years themselves.

Has Leake been traded to the Lions?:rofl:

I fixed it…Thanks

Rookie of the Year in the East . I would have given it to Dustin Crum. Played well throughout the season and never complained

Hmmm. I guess I don’t have to post and pick the winners because I already did last week. Got all the finalists except for the Western rookie nominee.

Sorry about this - my comment has nothing to do with this article - BUT, I tried watching the Commissioner’s Comments to the media - which supposedly took place 2 hours ago. When I tried to watch and listen - I first had to sign in and commit to receiving CFL news, etc… - (didn’t I sign in when I joined this site years ago!) - anyway, I signed in as requested - got ZIP, nothing, zilch! I waited and tried again - same result. I am an avid CFL fan - can’t the CFL site show the same interest and get their electronics right?
