Actualy, Canadian football seems to be much
ruffer, the rules are a lot diferent I believe so it makes for a better harder played game, just my own personal opinion...
they do a great job.....

Yea, the Eagles done good......

You better believe it's a rougher game.
110 yards, only 3 downs instead of 4, plus..they play with a "live" pigskin, and the "quarter-back sneak" means he's gotta try and get out of the stadium alive.

Football in Canada?

Who's the big star?

Larry

..Take your pick. There's a lot of ex NFLer's who decided they wanted to play a more challenging league.
Hey renig....if you're tuned in......."Hamilton???". ...and if that's not bad enough..Saska bush defeats my Lions!!
Now I really need a drink!!

Damon Allen QB California
Raphael Ball DB Ball State
Tyrone Bell DB Alabama
Noel Carter DL Saint Mary's Univ.
Eric Carter CB Tennessee
Sedrick Cory DB Texas
Lyle Green FB Ohio
Alfred Jackson WR San Diego
Carl Kidd #26(My personal fav. line backer) Arkansas
Dan Payne OL Purdue
Ryan Thelwell SB Minnesota

...okay that's enuff for now.

...not wanting to get into a shouting match here Larry....but if you get the opportunity...try tuning in to some CFL...I think you'd be pleasantly surprised.

...just my thots...

shboom ... first, let me repeat that I enjoy Canadian football....
I think Larry was looking for a top NFL player that left the NFL voluntarily to play in the CFL... are there any?
I would think that the better players would choose the NFL because of the salary structure ...
I think it might be similar to baseball in Japan ...players over there who are god-like come to USA Major League Baseball, and are good, but not necessarily the dominant force they were in Japan ... and players who are close to their final years in the USA get lucrative contracts to play over there ... It's just on a different level ...
