CFL Week 1 Thread

>>76696375

For any Americans out there that decide to give the CFL a shot tonight, don't judge the league solely on tonights game. Montreal and Saskatchewan are probably going to be the two worst teams in the league.

If you want some free money, bet the under.

>>76701326
Don't worry. Can't be any worse than NFL Europe

>>76701326
that's based on last season, a lot can change in the cfl week to week based on non import players

durant btfo of jones is a good possibility and would be entertaining

Thank god the season finally starts. Bombers gonna win the Grey Cup this year, senpai. Our year.

>starting the season on NBA draft day
Is Canada stupid?

Who /kittycats/ here

>>76704198
My nigga. Nichols is going to lead us to the promise land this season. Fuck this bye-week to start the season.

Is the east not going to be so god damn horrendous this year?

>>76701326
Slight edge to Montreal I'd say. Both of these teams will be crap though.

>>76704299
A total of 12 people in Canada will be watching the NBA draft.

What happened to Vince Young? Did he actually have a legit chance playing for the Riders or was he just cut.

>>76704607
He got injured in training camp, expected to miss 4-6 weeks. It was cheaper for Sask to cut ties.

>mvq les alouettes gagne le coupe grey

>>76704678
No one cares burger. Stop looking for attention.

I miss milt in the peg. When is he going to coach.

>>76705280
Milt seems like too nice of a guy to be a coach. I can't picture him yelling at refs.

>>76705280
think he lives year round in atlanta, and just flies to toronto to do cfl

Why isn't Montreal playing as well as they did last week with Ottawa?
I knew this would happen. Montreal a shit again

This game is college tier.

You guys definitely have a better field goal and kickoff system though

>>76704324
Literally the worst week to have a bye.

I like double header games so you're more inclined to stick with a game like this

Nice
That flag scared me for a second though

> Kevin Glenn is your starting QB

Top kek. Riders are fucked, how is Glenn even still in the league let alone starting.

As an american looking for something not baseball to fill the time between hockey and NFL seasons, which team is the underdog here?

>>76701755
I miss NFL Europa though. It was so fun to watch little Eurodicks get stiff at the sight of a man's sport playing out on the divegrass field.

guess the player
>>76706713
he isn't bad though, just kind of old and not great
he usually goes to teams with bad offense

>>76706768
Sask is underdog. Theyve been horrible for the past 5 years

>>76706768
odds were set for montreal -7, so saskatchewan

both of these teams were bad last year and changed a lot, hard to tell

You now remember the Alouettes actually signed Chad Ochocinco in 2014. The madmen

Why did they get rid of Drew Willy?

Ref job is game is horrible

Lets go Rough Riders
I dont remember CFL games being this noisy though. its like a fucking south african soccer match.

>>76704198
>last won in 1990
>an american team won more recently
>fucking saskatchewan has won twice
>ottawa folded twice and came back twice
>ottawa won more recently

>>76708291
montreal plays in a small stadium so the seating is concentrated and the mikes pick up noise a lot

it also helps that montreal has some of the laxest liquor laws in canada

Is the game still on? I wanna watch

>>76708435
7:30 min left in the last quarter

>>76708435
yes
http://sports-night.eu/46.html

slow start but could be a good finish

>>76708567
Yeah I've got it on ESPN. Didn't realized I got the channel. He shouldbe been able to walk into the end zone if it wasn't for the bad pass.

>>76707425
Because he's awful that's why.

>>76706817
Glenn is like the token guy that teams pick up when they're having a "rebuild year" and then gets tossed when they get a decent offence set up.

All these 3rd down conversions, CMON GLENN YOU OLD FUCK I GOT DOLLAROOS ON THIS

Is spiking the ball allowed?

In before meme punt out of the endzone

Oh shit will Sask pull it off

>>76708877
Nope

Fire that fucking kicker

Cfls is good underrated summer filler. Arena footballs been a total meme here for a decade. Don't know why it hasn't caught on a little bit here. But Americans just don't like anything non-american

>>76709130
eh Im a blue bombers fan now. but I mean I owe it to sp of course. but its great we get the games here now.

>Cfls is good underrated summer filler
T-Thank you anon
Some 'Murrican's I know are always quick to dismiss the CFL as a joke and being pointless, despite never watching a game. They then go on to boast about the NFL for the next hour while fantasizing about Tom Brady or some other quarterback.
