    Time for the annual Grey Cup thread that NOBODY CARES ABOUT!! ;)
    Saskatchewan vs Winnipeg. I'm cheering for Saskatchewan, because they're from the West, and they're my team of choice after the BC Lions. Kick off is 6:00PM Eastern time on CBC TV. There's gonna be 23 people at the party we're attending. My wife is busy preparing food (she always does). It may be a rough day at work tomorrow.

    Hahaha, I'll be watching it though no Cup party here. I have a friend from Alberta and he says football is almost like a religion in the West as opposed Quebec or Ontario.

    Gotta go with the Roughriders, Winnepeg lost their QB in the east final to a broke left arm it will be tough. Wish they would open the roof in Toronto

    Well I watched some of the game today and apart from not understanding the rules, I found it quite enjoyable :)
    I always cheer on the team in the Green, so i guess I am a saskatchewan fan now ;)

    Decent game Riders defense was good. Tough spot for Dimwiddie and Bombers

    So is there a difference between Canadian and American Football?

    We have 3 downs instead of four, the field is larger and there are minor differences in scoring points.

    The game was not as good as I hoped. I'd like to have seen more scoring both ways. Most of the people at the party were rooting for Saskatchewan, and a few for Winnipeg, so there was lots of whooping and hollering when they did score. I came out the best though. I won the pot for the final score($40.00). First time I've won.:dancer:celebrate
