Predicting the Football Future

Too bad I didn't place a bet yesterday on the Grey Cup!

Our team in British Columbia, the Lions, won 34-23 in front of 54, 313 fans at BC Place Stadium. An amazing turnaround as they started the season 0-5!

Let this be an inspiring message for the Buffalo Bills, who have dropped four straight now to sit at 5 wins and 6 losses. The Jets (not Winnipeg's) beat us yesterday, 28-24.

Also, in the past seven seasons a team with a losing record after 11 games has made the NFL playoffs:
  • 2004 - St. Louis 
  • 2005 - Washington 
  • 2006 - Philadelphia 
  • 2007 - Washington
  • 2008 - San Diego 
  • 2009 - New York Jets 
  • 2010 - Seattle
Go Bills! 
Here is another prediction for you: the BC Lions will win the Grey Cup again in 2012!

  1. Hey Ralph,
    Since my Chiefs suck and haven't scored a TD in 18 quarters, I may have to adopt a team for the Playoffs. It's ok. As a Chiefs fan, I've been used to it.
    Go Bills!!

  2. Plus you can watch the NBA again soon Derek:)
    For Monday Night Football starting in about twenty minutes, pick New Orleans at home over the Giants. I think too many road teams won this weekend in the NFL.
    Cheers!
