Grey Cup rematch helps kick off historic CFL season
Football Betting Lines
02/17/2012 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Canadian Football League will celebrate in 2012 the 100th Grey Cup championship, and the season will open on June 29 with a pair of games, including a rematch of the 2011 Grey Cup between Winnipeg and British Columbia.
The Lions beat the Blue Bombers last November for the 99th Grey Cup title, and the teams will meet in Vancouver in the nightcap of the opening day doubleheader. The first game of the day, and the season, will pit Saskatchewan against Hamilton.
Toronto will visit Edmonton on June 30 before Calgary hosts Montreal on Canada Day to conclude the opening weekend's action.
The highlight to the year will come on November 25 in Toronto, when two teams will meet in the 100th Grey Cup game.
"We have so much planned for this year, to celebrate the true Canadian icon that is the Grey Cup, and share this historic milestone with our fellow Canadians," said CFL commissioner Mark Cohon. "It's a wonderful opportunity to celebrate something that is uniquely ours, to celebrate how the Grey Cup has always brought us together as Canadians, and to celebrate simply being Canadian."
Another feature to the CFL schedule is Labour Day weekend, which opens on Friday, August 31 when BC visits Montreal. Saskatchewan will host Winnipeg on Sunday, September 2, before the traditional rivalry games between Toronto and Hamilton and Edmonton and Calgary on Monday.
The playoffs begin Sunday, November 11 with the division semifinals and continue the following Sunday with the division finals, all leading up to the Grey Cup celebration in Toronto.
