CFL Gameday: Edmonton at Calgary (July 23, 2011)

It may be the marquee match up of the weekend in the CFL, the undefeated Edmonton Eskimos make the trip down to Calgary and a showdown with their provincial rivals the Stampeders.

The Esks have had an impressive start to the season, running up an undefeated record and some startling offensive numbers, while the Stamps have struggled during their first three games. While they have two wins to make note of, if but for a bounce of the ball or a deflection the other way and they could very easily be 0-3.

The Stamps who of late could probably have taken the two points from the Eskimos as granted, won't be able to make that mistake in week four, the Esks have been full value for their wins thus far and no doubt have ambitions to extend their run at McMahon Stadium.

CFL Gameday: Winnipeg at Toronto (July 23, 2011)

The Argonauts take to the home field for the first time in this 2011 season, a few stumbles over the last couple of weeks bringing them to the home opener with a 1-3 record and just a few questions from their fans, most involving concerns over the anemic nature of the Argonaut offence of late.

On the other side of the Rogers Centre field on Saturday will be the Winnipeg  Blue Bombers, a team hobbled by injuries after a fast paced start to the CFL season, had this had been the Bombers of two weeks ago, the Argos might have been considered an underdog in their own home.

But with the Bombers sorting through their injuries and with a cautious return to action of staring quarter Buck Pierce, it should at least be a pick em, if not a game that favours the Argos.

CFL Gameday: Hamilton at British Columbia (July 22, 2011)

With a vote of confidence in his pocket from Lions owner David Braley, BC Lions coach Wally Buono is hopeful that his team will begin to turn around their thus far woeful season on Friday night.

The Tiger Cats fresh off their impressive performance against the Saskatchewan Roughriders, make the trek across the Rockies and away from the oppressive Ontario heat, eager to show CFL fans that last weeks first win of the season was the real Tiger Cat team in total sync.

For the home side, a win would seem to be imperative at this point, if for no other reason than to show the fans of the Lions that there is finally some light at what seems to have been a pretty bleak three weeks.
