Canadian Football League - Official Thread (1 Viewer)

I was at the Montreal vs. Calgary game last night. Poor showing by Calgary as they open their Grey Cup defense with a 40-27 loss.

On an interesting side note, Montreal's starting QB Anthony Calvillo isn't very mobile, so they inserted QB Adrian McPherson in for short yardage running plays. McPherson was the former Saints QB who was run over by the Titans mascot in 2006.

Wait... The infamous @Faust is a fellow Calgarian?
NO WAY!?!?! I am too, you guys both are?
I also live in Calgary. Stampeders Season ticket holder.
 
The female streaker was the obvious and unanimous MVP of the Grey Cup.
Video?
Yes there is - all over Twitter. Just don’t want to post here.
Just found it. Not bad.
Not as good as the Edmonton Oilers fan from this past Stanley Cup playoffs, but Canadian fans are raising their games.

Why Canada rules

Cops didn’t arrest her, just kicked out

No word on how serious the ankle sprain was

Loved the way they kind of just eventually went over to her. Reminds me of Willy Wonka and his half-hearted "Stop. Don't. Come back."

Sorry miss but we’re required to walk you off at some point. We didn’t write the rules….obviously.
 
I tend to follow a line north from the Twin Cities and pull for Winnipeg. Bud Grant connection too I suppose. It does feel like there's an NFL-like ambience to games played in Winnipeg and Saskatchewan.

Do Canadian fans also look directly south for their NFL team?
 
I love watching the CFL. I just wish there was more awareness of CFL+, if it was streamed on a major platform I think it would be more popular.

When I lived in Detroit I would watch sports on CBC (Windsor 9) all the time. Hockey Night in Canada in the 90s with Don Cherry was awesome. Watched the 1996 & 1998 Olympic coverage exclusively on CBC, so much better than the American broadcast.
 
Extended highlights on youtube isn't a bad way to follow it without much of a time commitment. It's actually reached a point where that's the only way I can follow NBA and NHL for 82 games.
