The Loose Moose died :canada: Winnipeg finds a way to ruin something cool

http://winnipeg.ctvnews.ca/moose-tranquilized-near-igf-dies-during-transport-province-1.3584372

quote:

A moose that was apprehended by conservation officers near Investors Group Field Saturday has died, the province said Monday.
The calf was roaming around the city on Friday and Saturday before it was finally caught and tranquilized by officers on Saturday afternoon in a field near Pembina Highway.
The province said the moose became a public safety concern with thousands of people nearby for the Banjo Bowl football game at Investors Group Field.
The province said officers were planning on relocating the moose outside of the city, but it died while being transported.
The stress of running through a populated urban area in hot weather took a toll on the animal, the province said.

I was looking at this on the CFL website https://www.cfl.ca/2017/09/26/cfl-simulation-two-horse-race-west/ and trying to figure out how the Bombers have the 3rd least chance of making the Grey Cup, but somehow have the 2nd best chance of winning. Turns out the Bombers haven't beaten Calgary since 2009 and 99% of playoffs scenarios have the Bombers needing to be Calgary at home in the West Final. :smithicide:

Yeah I can't see Richardson translating to the CFL very well, either you need to make one cut and sprint or be a ridiculously powerful runner. Plus if I remember correctly he didn't have great hands either.

Johnny Manziel would be pretty good I think.. If he actually gave a poo poo about football.

So, if I read it correctly, if Ottawa wins and Hamilton loses, Ottawa clinches?

That is correct, also if Hamilton loses regardless of other games it guarantees a Western Crossover.

This is the full playoff scenarios for this week

quote:

Here is how the scenarios shake down for the rest of Week 17:

West Division Scenarios

Calgary Win + Winnipeg Loss = Calgary Clinches first place in the West Division and will host the Western Final on November 19
Winnipeg Win OR Tie = Winnipeg clinches a playoff berth
Winnipeg Win + Saskatchewan Loss + Edmonton Loss = Winnipeg clinches at least second place in the West Division and will host a home playoff date.
Saskatchewan Win + BC Loss = Saskatchewan clinches playoff spot (crossover minimum)
Edmonton Win + BC Loss = Edmonton clinches playoff spot (crossover minimum)
BC Loss + Saskatchewan Win + Edmonton Win = BC eliminated from playoff contention

East Division Scenarios

Toronto Win + Ottawa Loss = Toronto clinches first place in the East Division and will host the Eastern Final on November 19
Hamilton Loss = Toronto clinches a playoff berth and will host a home playoff date
Ottawa Win + Hamilton Loss = Ottawa clinches a playoff berth and will host a home playoff date

Crossover Scenarios

Hamilton Loss = A West Division team will crossover and take the third playoff berth in the East Division
Hamilton Win + Saskatchewan Tie or Win AND Edmonton Tie or Win = A West Division team will crossover and take the third playoff berth in the East Division

Week 18 Playoff Scenarios

Calgary, Winnipeg, Edmonton, Toronto and Ottawa have clinched playoffs

Montreal and Hamilton have been eliminated from the playoffs

quote:

West Division Scenarios

Calgary win OR Winnipeg loss = Calgary clinches first place in division and hosts Western Final on November 19
Winnipeg win OR Edmonton loss = Winnipeg clinches home playoff date
Saskatchewan win OR BC loss = BC eliminated from playoff contention
Saskatchewan win OR BC loss = Saskatchewan clinches playoff berth

East Division Scenarios

There are no scenarios specific to Week 18 that can decide anything in the division

Crossover Scenarios

Hamilton loss in Week 17 confirmed a West Division team will crossover and take the third playoff berth in the East Division

Yes, technically Toronto controls their own destiny for the bye in the East. If they win out and Ottawa wins out Toronto is 9-9 and Ottawa is 8-9-1. If Toronto loses Ottawa just needs to beat Hamilton next week to get the Bye. There's other scenarios if Toronto ties, but no one cares about those.

I also edited my post because Edmonton, Toronto and Ottawa have all clinched. Hamilton was eliminated on a boneheaded DPI.
