RWB podcast #191: The 2021 CFL playoffs begin (also, about that USFL thing…)

The Rouge White & Blue CFL podcast

For Rouge White & Blue CFL Podcast co-hosts Os Davis and Joe Pritchard, this part of the season is a bad news/good news situation. The bad news is that the 2021 season is almost over – and with four fewer weeks of games and no preseason, CFL 2021 literally feels like it has just begun. The good news is that it’s playoff time and the games are on Sunday, really the proper day for professional football.

After crawling his way past the .500 mark and coming off a 4-1 week, Joe feels particularly qualified to pick the first round of CFL playoff games, namely Montreal Alouettes at Hamilton Tiger-Cats and Calgary Stampeders at Saskatchewan Roughriders. Os chips in a probably unpopular take on the West game that he’s likely to lose money betting on as well.

Finally, considering that one RWB co-host has a twitter handle named for the original USFL, Joe and Os are briefly diverted by a little speculation on the upcoming USFL 2.0 on FOX launch.

Happy Thanksgiving holidays, USA CFL fans!
