The off-season; the reason I still play Madden...

World Cup? Both my teams didn't even make this year but I'm still watching.

Oh, it's no American Football but it helps pass the time. The diving is so ghey though...

The US rugby team beat Scotland last week. There is still rugby on TV!

I usually watch a quarter and then surf for what good reruns are on TV! The CFL tries very hard to market its product, but it just doesn't do it for me unfortunately. I have many friends in Canada though that would argue the opposite.......to each their own.

I was a CFL fanatic. In fact, I was Admiral of the Pirates' Armada (ie. head of the fan club) back in the early '90's when the CFL had the US expansion experiment. Our franchise was the Shreveport Pirates and the NFL Hall of Famer Forrest Gregg was the head coach.

Thank goodness for DVR's! I've been watching last years games again and we put out a good looking team last year. This years team should be even better.

Garry42, is Johnny "Football" Manziel starting yet?

Side note - my dad used to be on that Edmonton train many years ago. He's was a huge Warren Moon fan.

Garry42 · 06-27-2018, 02:44 PM

No...he was on the bench last game as well! Hamiltons starter is doing well, so there is actually talk of Johnny Football being traded to another team. Im no expert, but....not looking good for Johnny at this point! Ahh....the Edmonton train!! Great CFL franchise! A very good friend of mine played for them 8 seasons! I was born and raised in Saskatchewan, so I am Roughriders all the way!!
