Prairie Grey Cup

For the first time ever, the prairie teams will play for the Grey Cup.

There has been a criticism of late that says the big-market teams (Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver) have a huge advantage in getting free agents, and therefore having success.

And if you add Edmonton to the mix, the winners have come from these 4 cities lately.

Here's a basic guide to the last time a team won the Grey Cup

B.C. (Vancouver) -- 2006
Edmonton -- 2005
Montreal -- 2002
Toronto -- 2004
Calgary -- 2001
Hamilton -- 1999
Winnipeg -- 1990
Saskatchewan -- 1989

As you can see, Winnipeg and Saskatchewan are at the bottom of the list. But after next Sunday, one of them will be at the top.

The 95th Grey Cup will be Sunday in Toronto at Rogers Centre (formerly SkyDome). It will be the last CFL game to be carried on CBC, and except for possible TSN simulcasts on CTV, the last CFL game to be broadcast over-the-air.
