I had the Argos +6

OK, it just wasn't to be, I guess. Can someone please explain the end of the game? What are they doing? What is this? They turned it into kickball. That's it, I'm out. CFL, you win. Last post.

Labour Day Recap

Labor = Labour

• Chris Leak tried to play QB. He threw two picks, fumbled while "hyperextending" himself, left the game. It was his first CFL start.
  
• You can have as many men in motion as you want on offense, I think. Arena League style.
• End zones are huge.
• If you can CB in the CFL, you can start in the NFL.
• All CFL stadiums look the same.
• June Jones is a natural as a CFL coach.
• Very unpredictable league.
  

No sucker here

Calgary vs. BC tonight. Calgary good, BC bad. Calgary only -6, BUT on the road. What do we know? Home cookin', that's what we know. So you just moneyline Calgary and hope like hell BC doesn't make this their banquet game. Do they have banquets up there?

Housekeeping in the Land of White Earth

Hey friends, are you.....



Woah.



What is this place?


Are you serious? Is this a blog... aboot the CFL? Friends, you have blazed a trail.

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Navraj Bassi. That picture there is of me when I played on the Oregon Ducks. I was born in Vancouver, I play both ways, defensive line and as a blocking tight end. I wear a turbin during games, because I am a Sikh. I played for the Saskatchewan Rough Riders.

Why am I telling you all this?

Well folks, because simply the fact that I exist, and play football, should explain the differences between the CFL and the NFL.

Do you think folks in Jacksonville would cheer me on? Guys in Houston would be lining up to buy my jersey? I'd receive a warm welcome in Arizona, especially now?

Boys, it's a different league up here.

Ok, first of all, to all participants, this blog seems to have begun in a drunken stupor as "Mr. Boatman" fired off an email to his attorney that he "wishes wee (sic) could half (sic) a CFL blog!!!" As such, there are very little rules. Do you want to blog about how Pat Williams took diet pills as a stimulant? GO RIGHT AHEAD. I imagine there will be some crossover with the failure blog on a lot of Vikings fails, but by all means, run wild. The title will still be about the CFL, just because I want confused Blue Bombers fans stumbling on here after downing a case of Labatt, and wondering just what the fuck is going on. I want us to be the blog that people hit when they search for "CFL Highlights", and then we just give them animated GIFs of Rocket Ismail falling down, or Ricky Williams breaking his arm. I want Canada to come upon this site only to see an entire post by Bob and Doug, breaking down the Alouettes' defensive shifts. In short, GO. Hell, should we do a CFL fantasy league?

Alright folks, the rules are non-existent. This is the CFL. Make of it what you will. The infinite is possible... at Banjo Bowl.

Don't ignore those links on the upper right, either.

And Dickfer, that man is Jim Young. Look him up. His nickname is "Dirty Thirty". Soooooooo......

Life is a learning process

OK, here we go. The CFL. What strikes me here is the CFL tried to go south to the USA. I don't remember that. I have been reading all sorts of Wikipedia links on CFL and I DON'T GET IT. This rouge thing and others. They play on a bigger field with one less down but play with one more player . . . huh? You know what? Screw it. I am just going to let the good people at cfl.ca show me a gamecast screen, at least I can understand that.
