- 0:03Hey Kids, Welcome back to another week
- 0:06of Old Man Plays CFL Fantasy
- 0:09and frankly.
- 0:11a Little less confident this week
- 0:13. 73.7 points last week, Oh
- 0:16my gosh. I mean it was a low scoring
- 0:19week for everybody. The points
- 0:22weren't to be had out there, but I
- 0:23trusted Nathan. That didn't work. I just
- 0:25the players I had I don't know
- 0:28about. So anyway, Moving
- 0:31Ahead. To
- 0:34this week I. I
- 0:37don't know that I've checked. I think I'm
- 0:38up against Ray Colbeck from the CFC, the
- 0:41Canadian Football Countdown, and he's One
- 0:44of the higher ones. My last few weeks
- 0:46here are all against players that are.
- 0:50I think a Little higher in the standings
- 0:51than I am, so it's going to be
- 0:53interesting seeing if I can hold on and
- 0:54get in the playoffs. Our
- 0:57commissioner Adam Stewart from Canadian
- 0:59Football Countdown obviously did a good
- 1:00job of schedule and making.
- 1:03I'm sure that was his first concern.
- 1:08Anyway. I'm yeah,
- 1:11I. Usually going
- 1:13into these things, I have a Pretty good
- 1:15idea of where I'm going. This week I
- 1:18don't I'll I'll run through the Games
- 1:21a Little bit and then we'll talk
- 1:23there about sort of what I'm thinking
- 1:25about and then we'll try and put together
- 1:27a team.
- 1:28On the depth charts that are out for
- 1:30everybody now, not a lot to be
- 1:33garnered there. I mean, Zach's out. We
- 1:36knew that other than that.
- 1:39Most of the rosters are Pretty Pat from
- 1:42last week and where there could be
- 1:45changes their Game Day decisions like in
- 1:47Saskatchewan, both corners Game Day
- 1:49decisions. Little scary.
- 1:53But we'll see. So talking about
- 1:55the Games themselves, the swim,
- 1:58struggling with it. Winnipeg goes into
- 2:01Hamilton. Now, the straps gonna be
- 2:02playing for Winnipeg, so you figure
- 2:04they're gonna be run heavy. So maybe
- 2:07Brady. But if you can
- 2:09concentrate on the run, can you shut
- 2:12Brady down? I don't know. And
- 2:14then on the other side,
- 2:17Hamilton. Well, that Winnipeg defense
- 2:20held Saskatchewan to
- 2:22basically Field goals a week ago. But
- 2:25I don't know that they pushed it and I
- 2:27think Hamilton's. Hamilton's
- 2:29probably not a bad Choice to Pick up
- 2:32some players on. I think I'll be.
- 2:37I think I'll be going with Bo this week.
- 2:38That's One of the things I do know. It's
- 2:40Bo is kind of like my running Game. When
- 2:42things start going wrong, you Go back to
- 2:44the running Game. You know what you can
- 2:45do? Bo's been Solid for me all year. Will
- 2:48he get me enough to to be the top
- 2:51Player in the League? I don't know. But I
- 2:52think that that's what I'll be Doing
- 2:53there and I don't know who.
- 2:56Kenny Lawler against a
- 2:59Marker, Houston. Whose first Game back in
- 3:02a lot of rest to Shake off. That May seem
- 3:05like a tempting thing, but I don't know
- 3:06if I can afford Kenny. It's really going
- 3:09to be building this on the Fly.
- 3:11Anyway, Ottawa and BC.
- 3:16It seems like a no brainer BC in the
- 3:19Stadium good Weather Nathan will
- 3:22just carve them up right but.
- 3:25I felt like it was a no brainer last
- 3:27week. And look at the egg they laid. Will
- 3:30he, will they win? I don't know. I
- 3:32honestly don't know if Ottawa got a 2nd
- 3:34winning in them in those circumstances,
- 3:36going all that way out West, playing the
- 3:38same team twice and all that. But I don't
- 3:41know-how much of what happened last week
- 3:44with Wind and Rain and How much was what
- 3:46Ottawa defense was Doing to Nathan.
- 3:49And without the all 24 look, it's hard to
- 3:51tell. So I'm very leery about going back
- 3:53to Nathan. On the other side,
- 3:56Dustin. From Mr Crum like
- 3:59Mr Crumb back.
- 4:02I'm officially naming our Family.
- 4:05His fans, the crumblers, cause I don't
- 4:07know, it just Works and I'm One of them. I
- 4:09I Love them, but I can't count on him
- 4:11running in a couple of touchdowns again.
- 4:13And so I'm just not sure
- 4:16the running Game BC
- 4:19again, you know, with Butler there,
- 4:22he's stopped running back in the League.
- 4:24But Ottawa's the 2nd best run defense. So
- 4:27don't know that I want to Go that way.
- 4:30Get Switch brings US to Edmonton at
- 4:32Toronto. Now
- 4:36this One, this is a very tempting One
- 4:38with Arbuckle is in there, and I have a
- 4:41feeling he's going to do just fine.
- 4:44But that Edmonton defense did play well
- 4:46last week, so we'll have to look at
- 4:49that a Little bit. I like jumping
- 4:52Jake, her slot, I think I wanna try
- 4:55and put him on the team and
- 4:58Rankin's hit and Miss.
- 5:01Some some Games Games. He's 100.
- 5:04Hundreds of points. It seems like some
- 5:06Games he almost doesn't get used.
- 5:10But lately it's been
- 5:12more. Used and not used
- 5:15in Toronto's got the worst run defense in
- 5:17the League, so. I'm thinking
- 5:21he's another One that I want to get on
- 5:22the team. Those are, but the only ones I
- 5:24think I've got is my anchor points
- 5:27and we'll see. Again, nothing
- 5:29really too much New there. It's just a
- 5:31matter of who performs and who doesn't.
- 5:34And then the final One, Montreal. Well,
- 5:36Montreal's brought back MBT.
- 5:39Which if Saskatchewan
- 5:42is got 2 backup corners in there
- 5:45Mbts that exerience quarterback he
- 5:47May ick him apart. We'll have
- 5:50to see. Ongoing the other way,
- 5:54well, Bell ran for whatever
- 5:56320 1000000 yards against Montreal
- 5:59last week, but I don't know that I'll see
- 6:02AJ Doing that as well. He's good, but.
- 6:06I'm just I'm not sure that he's I think
- 6:08he'll get another 7080 Yard Game and
- 6:11they'll Control it along the Ground.
- 6:13They're talking about it being a Little
- 6:14bit rainy and stuff. So we'll see on the
- 6:17on the Montreal side, depending on where
- 6:19someone like maybe a fill pot is
- 6:22in the price, that might be Worth a
- 6:25Little bit of a flyer because. M
- 6:27BT May get him the Ball a few Times.
- 6:32So anyway, that's like, as you can tell,
- 6:33I'm just, I'm not certain this week. I
- 6:36don't know. So Let's Fire up, Pick
- 6:39them on the old Computer here. Take a
- 6:41look at what we get and.
- 6:44Figure out where we're going.
- 6:48Going to be building this on the Family.
- 6:49Let's see where we Go to here. Bo.
- 6:52Levi Mitchell is going to cost me 15.
- 6:54That makes Sense. I said I wouldn't
- 6:57mind Justin Rankin in here. He's probably
- 6:59going to be expensive too. 14 9 I
- 7:02believe. Yeah. OK and then.
- 7:05Jumping Jake Herslow, I thought. Who
- 7:08is at 82
- 7:11O? That leaves US now 30 K for
- 7:144 positions, and my math is right.
- 7:17That tells me that's about 7 and a half
- 7:19per position. So where do we Go
- 7:22from there?
- 7:23Wide receivers, I did say we might want
- 7:25to take a look here.
- 7:27And see what Mister Philpot's going for.
- 7:2911 and a half. And Austin
- 7:32Mack is 8.2.
- 7:35Go for Mac. He's a Little more
- 7:37within that reasonable range.
- 7:40We're getting Closer to where we need to
- 7:42be. OK, so.
- 7:45Running backs. Who else can I get that's?
- 7:49Not too ridiculous.
- 7:51Brown is 95
- 7:54sorry because there is cease from
- 7:55Montreal who might be a way to Go. But
- 7:58Let's for now Brown work for me the
- 8:00other week. Let's put him in there now.
- 8:03So now we're down to 12 for these. So
- 8:06Let's look at the defense and Let's
- 8:09Go just strictly by price and see what
- 8:11the cheapest ones are again. BC and
- 8:14Ottawa, Go figure. we get U to Montreal,
- 8:17And then Hamilton against the Strev.
- 8:19Let's put them in. How much does that
- 8:22leave US now?6.6 to
- 8:25get some One else.
- 8:28Oh dear.
- 8:29this. So Let's Go over to here, to
- 8:30Hamilton.
- 8:32range here. 6th So we're
- 8:35on the low end of that price range and
- 8:37that gives US Bridges Or
- 8:39Robinson.
- 8:41about if I Go with bridges?I
- 8:43don't know if I feel Great about this,
- 8:45but I think maybe I do. I
- 8:48think maybe I do.
- 8:50that O, so I'm going.
- 8:53Going with that Hamilton Tiger Cat
- 8:55defense, hopefully they Pick off the
- 8:58scrap a few Times. Bolly
- 9:01by Mitchell of Hamilton is my Captain and
- 9:03quarterback. He's going to be the anchor
- 9:05Running backs Rankin from Edmonton
- 9:08and Brown from Toronto, so the running in
- 9:11that Game will see How it goes.
- 9:13And then my receivers, I've got Jumpin,
- 9:16J Curslow out of Toronto
- 9:19and Mac from
- 9:21Montreal and in the flex,
- 9:24Shamar Bridges from Hamilton.
- 9:30Let's lock it in. We'll
- 9:32see How it goes.
- 9:34Already. That's it, That's my picks.
- 9:37As always, the usual disclaimer, use them
- 9:40at your peril. After last week I
- 9:43don't know-how much of my advice I'd be
- 9:44taken, but that's it looks
- 9:47like it could be a Little bit of a
- 9:51questionable weekend. 3 of the 4
- 9:53Games the point spread is either right
- 9:56at 7:00 points Or over it. The only One
- 9:59that said all close frankly is Edmonton
- 10:01at Toronto and I think there it's.
- 10:04There Toronto minus I think 3 and a half
- 10:07Or 4, but the others are all Big spreads.
- 10:09But I just I don't have that kind of
- 10:12confidence. Last I Heard the Lions.
- 10:16What is it -9 I don't do the betting
- 10:18anyway. Lions had to win
- 10:21by 9 points to to win the
- 10:24bets on that One.
- 10:27I'm just baffled. And I'm
- 10:30babbling, which is there's no reason to
- 10:31keep you here for that. So I Hope you
- 10:33have a Great weekend. I'll be all
- 10:36enjoy some Great football and I Hope you
- 10:39have a lot of luck with your fantasy and
- 10:41Pick him. Until next week, old Man.
- 10:45Signing off.
