Sports Night


The season continues and the Premier of Saskatchewan, Brad Wall, continues to lead the pack for Premier's Picks (heard every Wednesday at 6:05 on Sports Night).
Here are the picks for Week 5.
Premier Brad Wall (10-6) - Montreal - Edmonton - Saskatchewan - Calgary
Drew Remenda (8-8) - Montreal - B.C. - Saskatchewan - Calgary
Jamie Nye (8-8) - Montreal - Edmonton - Saskatchewan - Winnipeg
Last week's winner was Tom, who picked Montreal, Toronto and Winnipeg correctly but 3/4 was enough to lead the pack.
The Saskatchewan Roughriders Jim Hopson would have never pulled a stunt like his counterpart in Edmonton did, yesterday.
Rick LeLacheur was made available to the media and before taking a question called his team embarrassing, a failure, and called the performance of the Eskimo coaches, management and players unacceptable.
The role of a president and CEO is to keep a calm head in good times and in bad.
Well the Canadian Football League has a race in the East and a race in the West for first place and is power starting to shift out East?
Team Power Rankings
1. Montreal Alouettes (Last Week - 2) - The Montreal Alouettes went 2-1 on a three game road trip in Western Canada and when they get back home they lay the boots to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. Anthony Calvillo is starting to find a groove and is spreading the ball around. This week, they have the Toronto Argonauts at home in a battle for first in the East. Montreal's defence looked much better in Week 4.
Premier's Picks
Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall is showing off his football knowledge after his third straight week picking three of four CFL games correctly and leads the way going into four weeks. By the way, I suck at this.
Premier Brad Wall (9-3) - HAM - BC - WPG - SSK
Drew Remenda (8-4) - HAM - BC - EDM - SSK
Jamie Nye (4-8) - MTL - TOR - EDM - SSK
Games this week: Thurs. Hamilton (1-2) @ Montreal (2-1), Fri. B.C. (1-2) @ Toronto (2-1), Sat. Edmonton (0-3) @ Winnipeg (1-2), Sat. Saskatchewan (3-0) @ Calgary (2-1)

Sports Night is joined by 700WLW's host of Sports Talk, from Cinncinati to discuss the arrival of Terrell Owens in Southern Ohio. And who's on your all-time bad-boy football team. Open Lines.
Cut from the Riders roster before the season began, Hamilton Tiger-Cats RB Marcus Thigpen talks to Sports Night about his red-hot start to his season. Also, people all over Saskatchewan line up to buy 'Fantuz Flakes'. The question is: Why?. Open Lines.
The host of News/Talk Radio's 'The Green Zone', Glen Suitor, joins the program to talk CFL football for the entire hour. Topics include: The Riders practicing at U of Regina, The Hamilton TigerCats, Mo Lloyd's comments to the press in Edmonton and the Argos Rob Murphy's comments he made on twitter. Open Lines.
Premier Brad Wall needs a strong week on 'Premier's Pick's' to recover from going 1-for-4 last week. Jamie improved going 3-for-4, and Drew went winless at 0-for-4. Brad Wall joins the program along with listener's picks. Open Lines.
Riders LB Barrin Simpson joins Sports NIght to discuss what the Riders defence has to do to stop the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. Also, 630 CHED's Dan Tencer talks about the players and fan reaction after President/CEO Rick Lelachuer's rant on the performance of the Edmonton Eskimos. Open Lines.
Sports Night hears audio from Edmonton Eskimo President and CEO Rick LeLacheur, who let the media know that the Eskimos performance so far this season has been far from acceptable this season. The question is asked: Do comments like that motivate a team to win? And who do you blame for the troubles in 'The City of Champions'. Also, Cowboys rookie Dez Bryant refuses to carry Roy Williams pads (a rookie tradition). Open Lines.
