It is true. Once the final regular season game is over - Edmonton at Saskatchewan on Saturday night - a brand new season will begin that may only last one game for each team, and won’t be more than three. Every player on every team will have that conclusive thought on their mind and every fan should look at it at that way. Whether you’re the Calgary Stampeders with the best regular season record or the cross- over team, the truth is that if the football bounces your way you will find yourself in Vancouver the last week of November. The problem is that a football is a very odd shape and can bounces in many directions at any given moment. So you do have to control the football, which means you have to control how you play football more than ever as the regular season closes and the playoff begin. In Hamilton, the Tiger-Cats did what they had to do to win. A special teams return for a touchdown, a turnover which created a short field touchdown, and two interception returns for touchdowns. Now that is a skill, an ability for sure, but you cant depend on it; you just have to create it in the moment. Hamilton has a very limited running game due to injury. Without CJ Gable and depending on the concussion status of Mossis Madu, it may be back to Nic Grigsby as the third back. He has similar talent but cant be expected to know the playbook as clearly as you do if you had been performing in it for the last 17 games. I would have liked to see Zach Collaros run more as a quarterback. He is a good athlete and if mobile on purpose it opens up areas of the offence just by the threat of that mobility. Hamilton needs Andy Fantuz back ASAP from injury. He is a different type of target and a physical presence downfield. Fantuz and Bakari Grant are the big receivers. Luke Tasker, Sam Giguere and Brandon Banks are the little receivers and Terrell Sinkfield is the speed receiver. A nice balance of abilities but you need all of them all the time. With Ottawa they close out the season next week. I do feel goal No. 2 has been accomplished: finding a core of players, and goal No. 1, creating an enthusiastic fan base, is genuine. But there is more to go, a lot more. Not sure much you can take from the Stampeders’ loss to Winnipeg because the weather was brutal and the Bombers were experimenting with on field talent. The drama does relate to Jon Cornish and his concussion. Obviously we will not see him until the West Final especially considering this was his second concussion in one season. What could you have possible done to prevent it? What premeditated planned out decision is out there? He hit his head on the turf in an extremely aggressive way on a completely clean and legal tackle. At this point of the year football is like gambling. You roll the dice hoping and even praying to the football Gods (there are more than one) that you avoid injury to all in every way. You have to play and hope for the best and here is hoping Cornish has a complete recovery as he is great for the league and the Stamps need him. Especially the way Edmonton is playing. And speaking of Edmonton, is there a more confident team in CFL football right now? Going into that game that Edmonton won 37-3, the Lions really needed it. Not only to enhance their playoff opportunity but just for their confidence and belief in their ability. It was Edmontons best game when you consider how effective the Lions defense was until that Saturday afternoon. They were first in just about every significant defensive category but did not perform as so throughout the game. They allowed yards rushing and yards passing and on offence they did not throw for over a hundred yards and did not run for much more than 60. I dont think BC is as bad as this one game indicates but I am wondering if Edmonton is just that good? The Eskimos’ efficiency is a good story but the best story is the Montreal Alouettes’ resurgence as a Grey Cup contender. Jonathan Crompton did it again. Nothing spectacular, 13 completions in 26 attempts for 251 yards and a touchdown but the key here is no interceptions. Then defensively Ricky Ray threw for only 209, only seven yards more than the previous game three weeks ago at the Rogers Centre. Defensively, Montreal knows how to play Ray effectively. Interesting fact here is that in Cromptons 251 yards passing, 181 went to Duron Carter. That is only 70 yards to others. Of Crompton’s 13 completions, 11 went to Carter. The other 2 to SJ Green. There is good and bad in that because you know what to defend but can you do it? Tyler Sutton, great game. 135 yards rushing on only 23 carries. Crompton, Carter and Sutton are emerging as reasons for success on the football field for Montreal. And Bear Woods too at linebacker. He is surprise performer No. 4 on this resurgent Alouettes team. All things considered, a Montreal-Edmonton Grey Cup is a real possibility. <a href="http://www.cheapjerseysworld.us.com/">Cheap NFL Jerseys China</a>.ca NHL Power Rankings, but there werent a lot of changes at the top, with the same top five as the previous week. <a href="http://www.cheapjerseysworld.us.com/">Wholesale NFL Jerseys</a>.

In their first significant move of the off-season, the Mets agreed with outfielder Chris Young on a $7.(SportsNetwork.com) - The New Orleans Pelicans once again become road warriors on Friday as they travel to the Target Center to face the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Pelicans played one game in the Big Easy following a five-game road trip. New Orleans went 2-3 on that trip with wins over the Toronto Raptors and Detroit Pistons and losses to the Boston Celtics, Philadelphia 76ers and New York Knicks. On Wednesday, the Pelicans returned home and defeated the Los Angeles Lakers, 96-80. Anthony Davis, who was named a starter for the Western Conference All-Star team, had 29 points and eight rebounds as the Pelicans pulled away from the Lakers in the fourth quarter. Davis returned from a three-game absence with a toe injury. Eric Gordon posted 17 points, 10 assists and five rebounds, while Tyreke Evans added 19 points for the Pelicans, who outscored the Lakers 27-12 in the fourth to turn the game into a rout. We just love Gordons floor game, having 10 assists was huge for us, Pelicans coach Monty Williams said. New Orleans scored the first nine points of the fourth quarter to grab a 10- point cushion at the 8:32 mark. The Lakers never got within less than eight the rest of the way. Following Fridays contest, the Pelicans head home for a six-game residency. The Timberwolves have lost two straight since winning two of threee.dddddddddddd Minnesota has dropped nine straight at home and hasnt won at the Target Center since Dec. 10 against the Portland Trail Blazers. On Wednesday, the home losing streak reached nine with a 98-75 setback at the hands of the Dallas Mavericks. Andrew Wiggins paced the Timberwolves with 18 points, with Thaddeus Young tallying 14 points, 11 rebounds and six assists in defeat. Nikola Pekovic, playing his first game since Minnesotas loss in Dallas on Nov. 15, had 14 points in 23 minutes in his return. The Mavericks hit on 11-of-27 shots from beyond the arc. Minnesota, in contrast, went a poor 2-of-15 on 3-point tries and shot just 34.8 percent overall. It felt like we were playing with deflated balls tonight, Timberwolves head coach Flip Saunders joked in reference to the controversy surrounding the New England Patriots recent win in the AFC Championship Game. We couldnt shoot at all tonight. The Timberwolves might be getting some reinforcements soon in the form of Kevin Martin. He has practiced for almost a week and is listed as questionable for Friday. There is no return timetable for Ricky Rubio or Shabazz Muhammad. The Pelicans beat the T-wolves in New Orleans on Nov. 14 and have taken two straight versus Minnesota. The Timberwolves are 4-0 in their last four as the host in this series. <a href="http://www.cheapjerseyscustom.us.com/">cheap custom jerseys</a>  <a href="http://www.wholesalejerseysstore.us/">wholesale jerseys store</a> <a href="http://www.cheapjerseysown.us/">cheap jerseys</a> <a href="http://www.cheapjerseysmarts.us/">Cheap Jerseys</a><a href="http://www.wholesalejerseyscc.us.com/">wholesale jerseys</a> ' ' '
