Simoni Lawrence

Two of the three road teams pulling up dubs.

Simoni Lawrence, your Week 16 picks.

All right.

Hamilton versus Montreal.

Yeah, that's gonna be a big boy battle for sure.

Time for Sims' Spotlight.

Every week, Simoni Lawrence focuses on a Ti-Cats player or coach who he thinks could make a difference.

Who do you got, Sim?

Wow.

This is 21 Questions with Simone Lawrence.

[upbeat music] Good morning, good afternoon, good night.

But you ain't gonna fall asleep with the guest I got today.

Johnny Avello, the longtime odds-making legend and chief odds-maker currently at DraftKings, will be with us on Tuesday.

And DraftKings is imploring Simone Lawrence and I to get over our long-standing feud from CFL Days, the CFL great, current Hamilton Tiger Cats team.

We'll see.

We'll see.

If you missed it, two great guests today.

Simone Lawrence was awesome in the first hour, tearing up the big CFL weekend.

And then Tito Ortiz, currently in Mexico, flying tonight into Edmonton for the Bare Knuckle Ice Wars down at the River Creek Resort and Casino.

Tickets still available.

And a little bit of electricity.

Yeah.

All right, big shout-out to Simone Lawrence from the Ticats Audio Network, of course, former CFL linebacker, one of the best to do it, and former UFC champion.

We'll be down here tomorrow for the Bare Knuckles Ice Wars.

So they got Johnny Avello coming on here on Tuesday from DraftKings Las Vegas.

But they're like, would you like to have Simone Lawrence on? He's representing DraftKings talking CFL.

I said, I don't think Simone Lawrence is talking to me.

I'm pretty sure that he goes back like 10 years.

I said he is a thuggish type, but I didn't call him a thug.

From DraftKings in Vegas.

We have Simone Lawrence from the Hamilton Tiger Cats to talk about.

You might want to ask Simone.

Yeah.

Okay.

I'll get back to you.

Roddy, I'll go to my grave saying this because after the reaction that Ryder fans had when it was thought that Bo Levi Mitchell could come and play here, Roddy, I'm convinced that if Simone Lawrence ever wore a green uniform, people would make bygones be bygones.

Oh, of course.

It's what we got.

And to break it down, I'm very pleased to be joined by my friend and co-host on this program, Mike Daly, longtime CFO of at all with the Ticats.

And Mike, again, you know, it's a unique time to play football, but I'm not complaining about the Saturday afternoon kickoff today.

No, no, not complaining about it at all.

So it's a lot of fun to isolate number one every few plays and see what the heck he's going to do on that play.

Yeah, you talk about guys who lead the leagues in tackles or ball hawks.

I think of the Ticats' all-time leading tackler, of course, our friend Simone Lawrence.

Talk about a guy who loves hitting people and going after the ball and playing the game like a little kid.

[upbeat music] A lopsided loss, finding a spark, and the showdown in Cow Town.

This is Ticats This Week starring Matt Bucknor, not Simoni Lawrence.

We'll-

[coughs]

So I like the big boy battle this week.

Sim spotlight.

So Simoni Lawrence is not here, so I've taken it upon myself to channel Simoni's-

Ooh
