  • RWB CFL podcast #276: All apologies to Queen
    Oct 22 2024

    …we are the champions /

    We are the champions /

    No time for losers /

    Cuz we are the champions…

    OK, so the Grey Cup trophy is still a few weeks away from being awarded – but Rouge White & Blue CFL Podcast co-host Os Davis was in fact crowned the champion of the 2024 Canadian Football Podcast Network Fantasy League and so the song.

    And in all seriousness do Os and RWB co-host Joe Pritchard look back at the week 20 games in the CFL, look ahead to the final week of the regular season – or at least the games that matter in the bigger picture.

    Just one more week and we’re into the playoffs, folks. (Already??!?!)

  • RWB CFL podcast #275: Playoff scenario, playoff narratives
    Oct 18 2024

    As the man south of the border once said, “Playoffs?!?!?!” For CFL postseason, the postseason hasn’t yet arrived, but with few highly relevant games remaining and the matchups just about set for those playoffs, what else can be discussed on the Rouge, White & Blue CFL Podcast?

    Co-hosts Os Davis and Joe Pritchard briefly touch on the week 19 games which included a lackluster performance from the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and Montreal Alouettes offenses plus an abysmal all-around showing by BC Lions. And Os even avoids bragging too much about his upset victory over Joe in the CFL Podcast Network fantasy football league.

    And of course, despite the mostly irrelevant short slate of week 20 games, Joe and Os have a go at picking and predicting the highly unpredictable.

  • RWB CFL podcast #274: The Riders eliminate everybody
    Oct 7 2024

    Well, it certainly *felt* like the Saskatchewan Roughriders eliminated three teams from the 2024 CFL playoffs with a 28-24 win that should haven’t been that close, though the Hamilton Tiger-Cats still kinda sorta technically mathematically could still sneak in to the postseason. And so, given the results of week 18, the Rouge, White & Blue CFL Podcast has one eye on the playoffs and another on the playoffs.

    Specifically speaking, RWB co-hosts Joe Pritchard and Os Davis discuss, alongside the actual results of week 18’s games, how radical the changes coming to the Calgary Stampeders might be, are the Riders a serious Grey Cup threat and can the Winnipeg Blue Bombers be stopped?

    All this plus picks and predictions for next week’s games and maybe a tiny bit of trashtalking from the world of fantasy…

  • RWB CFL podcast #273: The eye of the Ticat
    Sep 30 2024

    Risin' up, back on the stream / Did our time, did our podcast…

    After week 17 sent Hamilton’s CFL fans on one serious rollercoaster ride, the Rouge, White & Blue podcast takes a look at the happinngs of last week with the viewpoint of the Tiger-Cats’ fans – the eye of the Ticat, if you will…

    Through Winnipeg’s blue-bombing of the juuuuuuuuuuuust about eliminated Edmonton Elks, though the Ticats’ own “upset” win over the floundering BC Lions, thorough the Ottawa Redblacks disappointing in snapping the Saskatchewan Roughriders’ losing streak, though to the Toronot Argonauts beating up on the East-clinching Montreal Alouettes goes the RWB, with brief analysis of each game in hopes of that ever-elusive East playoff crossover.

    Beyond this altered state, RWB co-hosts Joe Prtichard and Os Davis have picks and predictions for week 18, plus playoff scenarios and lots of schedule-gazing. Meanwhile…

    the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night / And he's watching us all with the eye of the Ticat…

  • RWB CFL podcast #272: What’s up with all the…
    Sep 26 2024

    After week 16 of CFL play, Rouge White & Blue CFL Podcast co-hosts Os Davis and Joe Pritchard have questions – questions mostly of the “What’s up with all the” variety. As in…

    • What’s up with all the high-octane RB play and short-yardage passing in the Canadian league right now?
    • What’s up with Chad Kelly – not to mention Chad Kelly’s teammates on the Toronto Argonauts?
    • What’s up with all the hype on the Hamilton Tiger-Cats (and even the possibility of the illusory East croosover) when they’ve now run up five wins, three against the Argos?
    • What’s up with BC Lions? (It may have been their bye week, but so many questions)
    • What’s up with all the awesome defense being played by the Winnpeg Blue Bombers and Montreal Alouettes?

    Answers (or at least futile attempts at such) on this week’s edition of the RWB, plus picks and predictions for week 17…

  • RWB CFL podcast #271: Three byes, two upsets, one tie
    Sep 16 2024

    A short slate of games in week 15 of the 2024 CFL season proved unkind for the great majority of Pick ‘Em players and football bettors – not to mention the BC Lions and Calgary Stampeders. On this episode of the Rouge White & Blue CFL Podcast, we’re again taking stock of standings and playoff picture, mostly through the angst of the fans.

    Without angst is RWB co-host Joe Pritchard, whose Winnipeg Blue Bombers mercifully got a bye and in so doing increased or maintained their lead over all others in the West division. But what of the Lions, now on a 2-6 run and again seemingly reverting to a zipless offense? And what of Montreal Alouettes fandom and RWB co-host Os Davis, who cheer on the defending champions suddenly saddled with a mediocre offense.

    And as per usual, along with a wrap of week 15 games, we look ahead to week 16; for what it’s worth, we’ve got picks and predictions on the upcoming games.

  • RWB CFL podcast #270: Not so strange after all…
    Sep 6 2024

    The 2024 CFL season experienced week to week has felt somewhat odd: Stuff like the crashes-and-burns of the BC Lions and Saskatchewan Roughriders, the defending West champion Winnipeg Blue Bombers digging themselves out of a hole to rise to first place, essentially every team except the Calgary Stampeders forced to give #2 and/or #3 QBs quality minutes…

    This week, the , Rouge White & Blue CFL Podcast considers the standings from the perspective of the preseason and things aren’t that far off from what RWB co-hosts Joe Pritchard and Os Davis dreamed up at the beginning of the season.

    And so overlays the theme of this week’s show, which again brings you a wrap of last week’s games, picks and predictions for the upcoming week (including Joe’s annual pilgrimage to the Banjo Bowl), plus the usual assortment of commentary and tangents.
