  1. Well, that silly rule has been around for 110 years & it has worked out pretty well. You don't like it, fine. I just get tired of hearing it's silly (as you keep saying) because it isn't. It's the Canadian game grounded in history. You change or take away any part of the Canadian kicking game & the result will be closer to the 4 down version of football in the States. I like both games. They have their own set of individualized rules that make them unique. The single point is here to stay. It won't be tweaked or changed.
  2. I grew up in the Rouge.
  3. You keep saying the single point is silly. Over & over. Go watch the NFL then & don't patronize us by saying the Canadian game is better. Lots of knowledgeable posters here who can see right through you.
  4. Came here again hoping for good news. No news.
  5. I don't know why people just can't accept both games for what they are & just enjoy them.
  6. Because it's not 4 down football. It's 3 down with Canadian football. It's a different game.
  7. When a drive starts do you hope for 7 or3??
  8. How can you say it's not? No one will try for a touchdown on 3rd & 10 if they're on the other team's … say 30 yard line. Every coach will take the 3 points.
  9. What was attendance & ratings numbers?
  10. Good points. With the video review the CFL would have to move it into the booth rather than have a control centre in Toronto.
  11. Anybody else glad Glen Howard didn't make it & not because he played McEwen? You got Howard playing with his son while Russ Howard did the tv analysis for TSN. I just thought OMFG. Russ was obviously restrained but still...
  12. Maybe it's time for the Feds to build a quarantine area at James Richardson Int'l Airport like in Montreal & Toronto.
  13. Are there 5,000 fans at the NY Guardians game??? Cavernous Met Life Stadium is virtually empty.
  14. Let's re-live this little nugget of joy...
  15. So, everyday I come here hoping to hear some positive news about the Bombers signing Derell Walker but nothing ever happens. I feel like I'm William Shatner in an episode of the Twilight Zone. I keep seeing a monster on the wing of the plane I'm flying in but no one believes me.
  16. Hey, I know you're enjoying the 11 Grey Cups your team has won. Oh wait, it's only 4. Math is hard for Rider fans... KAAAAAVIS!!!! Even when you have a qb you still can't win. #13riderdozen
  17. My favourite Commish strikes again. Elect a clown. Get a circus.
  18. Vince's ego is bigger than The Big Show. This is all about him. Just wait until the NBA playoffs, MLB & even MLS start up in about a month.
  19. I remember driving home from the lake on a Monday evening of the August long weekend back in the mid 80's. Bob Irving & Jack Matheson were doing the Football Hotline back then. I settled in to listen & for crissakes, all I heard from Bob was "Let's take a break" over & over & over. There were all those commercials we hate & there were as many back then as there are now, but also breaks for the news at the half hour. Six or 7 minutes of content & then commercials. I turned it off.
  20. Too bad Drew McIntyre wasn't on the card tonight. Brock Lesnar must be considered almost a local guy as he'd from Minnesota & lives in Saskatchewan. Paul Heyman did his best to be the heel advocate to get the crowd reacting but fans still cheered for Brock. Looked like he was enjoying it, too.
  21. Their playmakers were totally intimidated.
