Looking to Baltimore for the most Canadian idea of all...
The question I was asked the most during this week at work was whether or not Indy would cover the spread (it should be noted that prior to Grey Cup my co-workers just asked who I was cheering for without the spread being mentioned, but that's a rant for another time). In any case, it brings up a good question. If you are an Argo fan, without a gambling interest, who do you cheer for tomorrow?
Well, Indianapolis has two key things going for it.
First, as every media outlet has reported this week, Indy employs the Argos first round pick from last year and argofans.com member, Dan Federkeil. Secondly, the Colts did CFL fans an enormous favour by using Kerwin Bell as a backup QB for a year.
That being said, Indy is also the team that cut former Argo Mike Vanderjagt, and they employ Peyton Manning, which cancels out the positives.
With that in mind, I think that we'll simply steal a page from the Baltimore fans who come to Grey Cup every year. This year we're cheering for beer.
