I am still bitter about last year's Labour Day loss in case you had not noticed.

I hope you are right. I am still mad we didn't do Montreal in 70-0 so maybe you will be right. This entire coaching thing is messed up in Hamilton too. I didn't think that team was this bad.

I'm starting to like our chances Labour Day. Their coach was visibly upset that he couldn't bring in his guy. Who know what this does for the future plan they may have had. The Argos must grab an early lead and capitalize on the impeding stadiums' negatively.

Argos must be heavily favoured to win, and there'd be no excuse otherwise. I pick the Argos in this game.

Ticats fired-up for Labour Day at home; plus teams often play well first game after a coaching change? And Masoli has some skills at QB IMO.

Wouldn't bet on this one; Argos could / should be able to win, but they need to show up in all 3 phases of the game. Like to see some diversity on offence that has been discussed here; if not - I fear a loss.

His best option (Green) is having an all-star year and as a result is likely getting extra coverage. His second-best option (Coombs) is gone for weeks. His third-best option (Edwards) is a pretty decent player who is up and down at this point. His fourth-best option (Posey) just came back after missing six games. His fifth-best option is a RB running check-down routes (Whitaker). Then we're into either an older receiver who seems to have trouble getting open (Fuller) or a young FB/TE who has shown flashes but is never gonna stretch a defence (Cross). It's not a ton to work with. Protection breaks down, often no one's open.

after watching the other FB in the league would have to say Cross is beginning to show an ability to get further down field than most ........ hope the Argos keep the RB coach around he has changed the RB/FB/TE performance with very good results.
