I don't have the standings in front of me but I can improvise something:

	Toronto:  In first in the East by a mile-and-a-half.  However,
			they have lost two consecutive close ones to
			Edmonton and Saskatchewan(!!).  The Argos probably
			will take the East but it remains to be seen what
			will happen with this current slump.  The 
			quarterbacking situation is confused, with Barnes
			being the most consistent but it seems as though
			being the starting QB is a jinx.  I think that
			Holloway is currently injured.  Ilisic is also
			missing easy field goals.
	Ottawa:  Not so hot but probably the team with the best chance to
			upset the Argos.  Plagued by injuries.  Watts is a
			minor disappointment this year.  Walker has been
			injured a lot.
	Montreal:  The team that could lose big or upset any team any week.
			I think that they massacred B.C. last week.  A young 
			team with potential but not consistent at all.
	Hamilton:  In shambles.  I think that they had a big win last week
			or the week before but they're not really a threat
			to anyone (except the Argos, naturally :-)).


	Winnipeg:  Probably the team to beat this year.  I'm not sure if
			they're ahead of B.C. or not (I suspect so, though),
			but they come up big in the big games.  I think that
			they lost an easy game at some time in the recent 
			past, though.  Just generally a sound team.
	B.C.:  Also a very strong team but I have reservations about this
			one.  Controversy over receivers has plagued them.
	Edmonton:  A team not to be taken lightly but, realistically, not a
			real threat to Wpg. or B.C..   Dunigan has been a 
			very pleasant surprise as Moon's replacement.  The 
			housecleaning continues...
	Calgary:  I don't know much about Calgary except that they are 
			generally in the same situation as Edmonton (except
			to a lesser degree).  Apparently, they've got a hot
			new Canadian QB.
	Saskatchewan:  Yet again, they're the dregs of the West, although
			they've proven themselves capable of an upset.  That's
			about all they're capable of, though.

I'll be posting standings and more comments in the future.
