I don’t have much to say to start this thread with, as I haven’t been able to watch the first few games, but the preseason is underway and there have been lots of changes in the offseason. Can’t wait to get the season kicked off for good on Canada Day weekend!
As I recall the Grey Cup is played in November right? I could see possibly referring to the upcoming NFL season as 2013 since the Super Bowl is then, but do you actually call this the 2013 CFL season, or was that a typo?
That was a typo Perhaps a mod could correct it? Sorry! This is, in fact, the 2012 season. In my defence, I’m car shopping, and it’s all 2013 models… :smack:
And the Alouettes release Étienne Boulay, which means I have to find another player to drool over. And yes, without Calvillo, they are pretty terrible (or, rather, Calvillo is just that freaking good!)
I think Montreal should trade with Hamilton for the CFL rights to Tim Tebow. Once he finally bottoms out in the show, I think he’s gonna put up some Doug Flutie numbers in the great white north.
Ottawa’s battle with [del]dirty tree hugging yuppies[/del] residents in the Glebe is finally over, so our new CFL stadium is under way. However, the pointlessly drawn out legal is forcing Ottawa’s return back longer it seems.
I admit to already being confused about which QB is playing where this year. Same 8 names, but switched around somewhat. I’ll have to start paying attention again!
Well, they didn’t win the game last week, but I have to say it was one of the most entertaining exhibition games I’ve seen. O’Sullivan looked lost, scrambled, passed for a touchdown- 27 yards, to pull ahead; then the Stamps eventually moved up the field for a field goal on the last play of the game with 0:00 on the clock.
It is!!! OMG it’s terrible, I have to get up early and drive to work and actually WORK and then drive home…so hard to waste my time on the internet! :smack:
I’m a little more distracted by the NHL draft and impending free agency, and there’s a big family party this weekend that will cut into my CFL watching game, but I’m so excited for the season to start!
If it’s any consolation, Mneysomne, before tonight’s game the Piper Cub pointed to the Als and said “they’re the good guys.”. Then he pointed to the Stamps and said “and they’re the bas guys.”
The girlfriend dragged me out to watch the soccer game in the afternoon. I was wearing my A.C. Jersey, being the good contrarian eye-talian that I am and hating soccer.
At the end of the day, I was about disappointed as the soccer people were. The Als defence was brutal, and took some STUPID penalties. And Calvillo had what? 10 first downs? Reallllly looking for a bounce back game against the Bombers.
