  • CFL news and notes

    While you yanks pine away for September bringing meaningful football back, here in the land of good beer and maple syrup we are moving into wk 3. And do you know what that means??

    Propaganda about your SASKATCHEWAN ROUGHRIDERS! GODS OTHER TEAM.

    After destroying hamilton pussycats (lions north) 30-13 then making the elks (Eskimos for traditionalists) wish they were in the wild 26-16 it's time to feast on winless Montreal.

    Currently saskatchewan is 2-0 and lead the standings with a plus 27 point differential. The other undefeateds are in the single digits.

    Calgary and Winnipeg are also undefeated but they will lose.

    We ate going against Montreal who seem lost on the field. It's like a visual representation on texs u derstanding if the oline. Yes its that bad.

    Saskatchewan is as hot as fritzes wife and as strong as cumbys bo.
    They are better than an apb capitalist rant and more consistent than a mexican renewing his website in Texas.
    Grey Cup here we come bitches!!!!

    With as usual no Canadian teams in the Stanley Cup Finals, it's good you Moose Humpers have something else to cheer for in the summer.
    I can't run no more
    With that lawless crowd
    While the killers in high places
    Say their prayers out loud
    But they've summoned, they've summoned up
    A thundercloud
    They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

        Watching Toronto vs BC on ESPN2 in what looks like a dome. I was expecting a natural grass field with maple leaves blowing around.

        Which raises a question: Why aren't the Toronto Maple Leafs called the Maple Leaves?

          “Your conundrum about the pluralization of the Maple Leafs may be less interesting than you were hoping for,” Chambers wrote. “It follows the simple rule that nouns used as proper nouns take regular (productive) plurals even if their common noun counterparts have irregular plurals.”

            So the riders shit the bed in absolutely epic fashion. The pain of fandom.... Sigh.

            Winnipeg Calgary and bc all won putting pressure on you saskatchewan roughriders to defeat montreal this weekend at home.
            Tough to do after such a beat down. Gonna tell a lot about this teams heart early in the season.

            GOOOOOOOO. RIDERSSSSS

                Saw the Saskatchewan win last week against a team using its #3 quarterback. Saskatchewan isn't very good but the Eastern teams are so bad they should get the crossover by staying ahead of Edmonton.

                This is the big back-to-back Labor Day series with Winnipeg.

                CFL games are going mostly to streaming (ESPN+) here south of the border now that the fall sports are starting up.

                    Back in the 80s ESPN showed most of the CFL games. Figured if I was going to watch it I had to pick a team. Always thought Saskatchewan was a cool name, not that I have ever been anywhere near the place.

                    Then I found out they were the Packers of the CFL. Even better.

                      Dude, you are awesome! I think Winnipeg will destroy us. And that hurts....

                        Two losses to Winnipeg and Saskatchewan is scrambling to get the crossover as the only way to get into the playoffs.

                        Luckily the eastern teams are reallllly bad.....

                          Dude this was a safe space where no one would bring up the riders.... On labour day we played ok.
                          The banjo bowl on the other hand was a nightmare. Between this game and the packers game i have never watched so many missed open wr in a weekend.

                            North of the border they are starting already, while we wait another month for training camp...

                            Saskatchewan vs. Calgary 3-3 after first quarter - doesn't sound like the CFL.

                            The Toronto Argonauts looked great in their debut and could be poised to shake up the CFL.ca Power Rankings.
