Comments:
Well, by the exclamation marks, we can see who are the powerhouses in the
league this year.  
As with last year (and the last few years), there'll be a clamor for a 
new playoff system or new divisions with the argument that the Eastern 
semi-finalists will (probably) finish with less points than the fourth-place 
team in the West (and possibly also Saskatchewan!).  Recall that just a few
years ago (when Ottawa beat Saskatchewan in the Grey Cup (1975??)), the
situation was reversed?
