My name is Brady, and I live in Boston. I heard about the C.F.L before, but believe it or not, I only saw my first game this week! I saw 2 as a matter of fact, and I thought it was way more exciting then a N.F.L playoff game.
I saw my first game on Thursday night, a bunch of buddies decided to watch it, it was Edmonton vs Winnepeg. I still can't believe the finish, 100 yard play to win the game. I also heard the comentators speaking of the previous game, involving Montreal, and the final score was like 40-38.
And today, I saw they were playing another game, Saskatoon vs Toronto. I was watching it because I liked what I saw in the Edm.Win game, and also I heard Ricky Williams and Eric Crouch were apart of the Toronto team. Unfortunately, Ricky got injured and fortunately, Wyn got injured and saw Crouch play. A great finish, straight to the end, and like the commentator said, in the C.F.L, it's never over until it says 00:00 on the clock.
Also, the CFL uniforms are a lot better than the NFL's.
Great game. My 2 first games were exciting games. I will definately be keeping my eye out on my T.V for other CFL games!
One of my boddies were telling me about a Fog Bowl during a championship game. And also champions winning on a sheet of ice, their strategy involved a staple gun :o
I know its only the first 2 games you have watched, but the team isnt Saskatoon, its Saskatchewan-- just thought I would correct you on that, but welcome and enjoy the CFL--the most exciting football league anywhere!!
You guys also missed another exciting game, the early one on Thursday. Montreal over Hamilton in a classic down to the wire with a whopping 79 points scorred. Edge of the seat excitement.
Stick around all year and by the end you may need a pace maker.
Welcome to the CFL, anonxforum! By the way, every weekend in the CFL is a good weekend! The CFL features far more games that come down to the wire, and the rules allow for more wild finishes, since it is much, much harder to kill the clock at the end of a game than it is in the NFL.
welcome anonx, hope you keep watching CFL, very fun league to watch, because its like 80% passing and the drives are about a minute long (2 minutes if they march down the field and score a td, lol). its also kinda great that our season starts over 2 months before the NFL, so its like the only football on TV during the summer.
