GP1 Posted June 27, 2011 Report Posted June 27, 2011 The CFL kicks off on the NFL Network this coming Thursday at 7:30. Check it out. It's lots of fun to watch. The NFL would be better off if it adopted some of the CFL rules.....all kicks must be returned....20 seconds between plays.....clock stops after every play the last three minutes. Quote

Zipmeister Posted June 27, 2011 Report Posted June 27, 2011 As the CFL teams battle for the right to play for the Grey Cup, I will be rooting for Edmonton and Calgary to meet on November 27th. Mark July 23 and September 5 on your calendar. That's when they are scheduled to play each other during the regular season. I guess I will lean in favor of the Eskimos as they employ two former Zips while the Stampeders only have one on their roster. Buckle up, it's going to be a wild ride up North this season. Quote

Some regional tidbits; Massillon Washington High School leased the Hamilton Tiger-Cats logo for a couple of years logo and Montreal's Molson Stadium has benches from the old Pitt Stadium Pitt benches.

Good stuff on the Pitt benches! I went to Pitt Stadium quite a few times, the last being this rain-soaked debacle. When our kicker (I believe it was the usually reliable Zach Derr) missed an early FG, one had the feeling the Zips would struggle to put points on the board that day. Quote
GP1 Posted July 1, 2011 Author Report Posted July 1, 2011 Link Very entertaining game if anyone watched it. It's refreshing to watch a football game with players actually playing the game because of the 20 second play clock. The NFL give us the "drama" of watching Peyton Manning point out defensive players and call out what position they play . There is another game on NFL Network tonight, I believe. It sure beats the half hour debates we get on the NFL Network debating who the best center of 2010 was. Quote

GP1 Posted July 3, 2011 Author Report Posted July 3, 2011 Saturday, July 2nd at 8:00 PM ET** Toronto @ Calgary Another entertaining game last night. The QB play could have been a little better, but on the whole it was a good game. Last minute victory by Toronto. Calgary scored two Singles in the first quarter, which ALMOST won the game for them, but a late FG by Toronto pulled it out. Quote
