Just curious, does anyone here follow the Canadian Football League during the quiet summer months ?

I tried watching two different games over the last few weeks. I didn't last three minutes each time.

^What he said. I've tried several times to get into a game, and I can't get past the "lol it's in Canada" phase.

I tried to follow a few years ago. I couldn't do it. Too bad because it would be a nice bridge to NFL.

It's too chaotic for me. Not to offend anyone, but it's like they tried to merge the planning, strategy and attention to detail of football with the fluidity of soccer. There's just too much movement going on before and at the snap for me to really get into it.

The massive end zones seem to take a lot of skill out of the game too.


But, I'm starting to get into it !

I'll be rooting for the Hamilton Tiger Cats tonight.  My neighbor is from Hamilton and they're actually up visiting family and going to the game.

 

I agree though .... kind of tough to watch when you don't have a rooting interest and don't know the players.

Massive end zones and some have tracks around the field.  It's like those people with end zone seats are about 80 yards away from midfield.

I'm from regina the hime of the Saskatchewan roughriders and I can honestly say I don't like to watch the cfl, the rules don't make sense to me at all. I like the nfl way more, I will watch a game here and there but that's it.

go John Chick!

Regina --- great looking city.  I just googled it and checked it out on google maps.  A little too cold overall for me but it looks nice.

BC Lions. Go Travis Lulay.
