Playoff dates

CFL Talk
#1

Does anyone know the expected playoff dates for the 1st round as well as the East and West Championships? Will both first round games be played on the 13th or 12th and 13th? Any help would be great!

#2

Nov 13 and 14 for the frist round
Nov 20 and 21 for the Finals.

#3

The 14th and 21 are mondays?????

#4

KK is from Austrailia... they're always 1 day ahead of us! :wink:

Depends where they are. Whenever the Argos have their home playoff game their could be conflicts on the Sunday or Saturday Night. Same with Montreal when they play their home game at the dome, there might be something going on. Out West should be both on the Sundays though.

#10

#11

Last year the Eastern Semi Final between the Argos and Ti-cats was played on a Friday due to conflicts at the Rogers Centre.

Wrong. The problem can't happen in Montreal for two reasons:

  1. There are no events anymore at the Big O. It's always empty. There are many places else to get an event going, so everybody avoir that dangerous visual atrocity without any form of acoustic.

  2. Since no one makes any event at the Big O anymore, the RIO wants to be very very very kind with the Alouettes because they seem to be the only rentee available on the long term. They wouldn't block them from getting the stadium on such an important night. This is no longer 1997.

But in Toronto, right, that would definately happen.

Pardon me, those were rough estimates.

#14

So the Aloucords could move back in to the Big O whenever they wanted to? sweet!

#15

Can but wont
NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER

#16

...but the fact that you can satisfies me now.

GO ALOUCORDS!!!!

#17

If you call them the ALOUCORDS one more time Im going to go over there and beat you with an ugly stick. :lol:

They are the Conouettes

#18

OK???

why not the Alou.... nope not going there, you put Alouettes frist and Concords last.

I don't know what the Montreal owners was thinking at the time in 1981, but what a stupid thing to do, now I'll be stick calling the Montreal team my nickname for them forever! until Moncton gets a team called the Concordes that is.
