CFL football thread

After going through withdrawals since February the regular season resumed last night for thhose of us north of the 49th. I recommend some of you non canadians give it a try till september as a lot of the basics are the same. Before you poopoo the idea a lot of NFL players who try out up are surprised by the quality of the game. If there is interest please mention it and I will try to find feeds of the game for you. I watch most of my on tsn.ca but not all games are available their. If you do decide to give it a try I just request no one cheers for Winnipeg or Calgary as that would prove you have the brain capacity of a bears fan.

The Riders dominated the Tigercats 43-16 last night as a rebuilt oline and new rb lead the way for the green and white.

Not much discretionary time but count me in.

Thanks!

So I looked in my bookmarks from last year and couldn't find it. Google front row sports (or first row) and then click on american football. Or maybe canadian football. Anyway they will lead you to the promised land. Also try www.tsn.ca and you might get a stream from the cfl schedual tab.
I am on my blackberry this weekend son not much help. Sorry.

Also happy Canada day tomorrow!

In an effort to continue the CFL conversation, The West division dominated the East division this past weekend.
Saskatchewan beat Hamilton 43-16
BC beat Winnipeg 33-16
Edmonton beat Toronto 19-15
Calgary beat Montreal 38-10

This was the first of the 18 game season. George, sorry I did not put up the live feeds as we left to camp for the Canada Day Weekend. Had a great time.
If any one is interested I would put up a further review of Rider games.

Sinorice Moss is up north now? He dropped a long way from a 2nd? round pick.

And his only impact was as a punt returner, 4 for 26 yards.
What did you think of the football you saw?

Also if you want to watch a game that has been played just go to here http://watch.tsn.ca/cfl-games-on-demand
they are stored by quarter and pauseable. Just when you guys watch don't keep screaming about too many men on the field they have 12 on defence up here.

[Guiness]

They're really putting the product out there, the on-demand is great!

Watched the Edmonton-Toronto game (I'm an Edmonton fan, both Oilers and Eskimos!) and it was a good game. The Eskimos are coming to town August 27th, I think I'll catch that game.

Eskimo's fan???? Grrrrr. I hope the Argo's kick their ass on the 27th! If you do go to the game you will probably see almost as many edmonton jersey's as argo's. I loved going to games when the riders were in the sky dome. about a half the seats were green and white, it was awesome! What did you think of Steven Jyles play on Sunday? He used to be a backup in Riderland so just curious.

As an aside I did not expect the Stampeders to roll over Montreal the way they did. Drew Tate is looking like the real deal.

[Guiness]

Andre Proulx (referee) provided some fireworks himself, when he suffered a heart attack during the game!

Jyles was ok, but I don't know that there's a future in him. IMO, Ray looked better, even with the scant protection offered to him by Toronto's line. I'd say I don't know why they traded Ray for Jyles and an idiot kicker, if it wasn't for the fact that the Eskimo's kicker hit 4 field goals, while Toronto's clanked a chip shot off the post!

Aww why you gotta do that. I was just hacking on Guiness because the Riders kicked the Eskimo's butts, and you gotta make it some sorta national insult thing.
Well screw you, and where teh hell are the authentic mexican recipes I asked for like months ago!
