Default CFL West Final - Nov 19, 2:30pm Stamps vs Esks

Should be a great match up for entertainment. As a stamps fan it's scary as hell, but I can't wait.

Would have to think the Eskimos are heavy favourites. I would give the Stamps about a 20% chance of winning this one.

Would love to see a huge crowd next week. I have my tickets, hoping others will jump on board and get a seat.

I'd agree with Eskimos being favourites but.. 80% sure to win?? I'd peg it somewhere at 65%... yeesh.

Friends of the Stampeders code for the West final is ST172

yeah I think a huge crowd at McMahon would actually give the Stamps a huge boost running out of the gate - more so than usual. I'll be there.

Go Stamps Go.

The pot for the 50/50 at the Western Final will be a guaranteed minimum of $100,000. That amount will grow with every ticket sold, with the winner taking home half the final total.

I really think I'm gonna win the 50/50 this week, I can feel it coming.

Would love to see 30k at McMahon on Sunday, I think a close to capacity raucous crowd could really benefit the Stamps.

The odds makers will favour the Stamps by looking at their home record and overall record but the smart money is on the Eskimos. This is one of those weekends where you could make some easy money as I expect outlets like sports select will have the Eskimos as heavy underdogs when IMO it should be a pick'em game. I personally don't see the Stampeders winning but maybe the underdog status (most of the media will be hot and heavy on the Eskimos) serves them better.

Is there such a thing as "smart money" when it comes to CFL betting?

Anyway Stamps are going to win this.

I used to love getting all bundled up and going to the late season and playoff games when it was really cold. I know that's not most people's cup of tea but for me that's one of the most memorable aspects of CFL football.

I love it too, some of my favourite memories of Stamps games are sitting inside of sleeping bags freezing the whole game, taking refuge in the washroom during halftime to warm up. As much as I want that for this weekend, I’d rather a big crowd, and unfortunately that isn’t possible with colder weather.
