CFL MTL at HAM- June 26, 2008

[NFLization]

It's so cool to see Canada play our sport.

[TOSportsFan1990]

@NFLization Actually gridiron football was invented in Canada. So, it should be...

It's so cool to see the USA play our sport.

[NFLization]

@TOSportsFan1990 no football is an American sport I guarantee. Football first started in the 1930s and the was when NFL and AFL existed. I know football didn't exist before that. Baseball, Basketball and Football are our sports.

[TOSportsFan1990]

@NFLization The Toronto Argonauts (a CFL team) were formed in 1873. The NFL was formed in 1920 and the AFL was formed in 1959. Please do a little research before "guaranteeing".

[NFLization]

@TOSportsFan1990 WHAT EVER!!!! Football didn't exist until about 60-70 years after the civil war.

[TOSportsFan1990]

@NFLization Wow...so a bunch of guys just said "Lets invent this new sport called football and make the NFL which will be the most popular sport in the U.S. in a matter of a few years". Football was developed based on rugby, which has been played since the early 1800's. So suck it

[NFLization]

@TOSportsFan1990 First of all rugby was played much differently back then cause that was when the U.S was 20 years old. Yes I know football is based off of rugby but the only thing they have in common is the ball, tackling and the points.

@NFLization  your an asshole.....typical ameirican ashole.....anything outside the US doesnt exist ....right??

[NFLization]

@MrTommypops fuck you racist asshole. go back to play badminton

[MrTommypops]

@NFLization racist?? Go back to school and learn what racist means......fuckin jerk.....

[NFLization]

@MrTommypops "typical american asshole"? I know what you're fucking talking about dickhead.

[ReJ40]

@NFLization no need to hate so much man. Both countries invented the game. In 1874 both McGill University (in Quebec) and Harvard had almost the same modified Rugby rules (the "Boston game" and "McGill game") and the schools played eachother a bunch of times that year with the two rulebooks and the rest is history. After more rule changes, the "McGill game" is now Canadian Football, and the "Boston game" is now American Football.

[NFLization]

@ReJ40 But how come is the NFL more popular than the CFL?

[ReJ40]

@NFLization ..the USA's population is 10 times that of Canada. The fact that we are fewer than California alone and have 8 (soon to be 9) teams in our league is not bad really.

[NFLization]

@TOSportsFan1990 Why isn't it called Canadian football. It's called Gridiron American Football. That's the full name. If you named it AMERICAN Football, you'd actually need our permission and we need permitted something like that.

[brownfedorahat]

some of those guys good enough to play in the U.S.A :)

[54tack]

Wow the CFL sucks

[TinaG06]

I know! WTF is this shit?! lol

[raptorsfan92]

montreal is shit shut the fuck up u french peice of shit its all about the hammer.

[TheDemoDisks]

Montreal is (unofficially) a bi-lingual city, you fucking tard. Montreal has been in pretty much every Grey Cup this decade, even though they've only won one, but that's because Anthony Calvio is the worst clutch Quarterback in CFL history.

Argo's = Worst team in professional football by far..

[raptorsfan92]

i agree with you...to bad im nto an argos fan.

[TheDemoDisks]

Never really said you did, just pointing out a well known fact.

[riderfanszmul]

its all about saskatchewan

[raptorsfan92]

no, its really not.

[riderfanszmul]

yes, it really is!

[raptorsfan92]

your GM is a petifile nuff said.

[riderfanszmul]

your team hasnt made the playoffs in 4 years nuff said

[raptorsfan92]

atleast our Gm hasn't touched a little boy or girl in the past 4 years, nuff said.

[riderfanszmul]

at least we don't suck ass, nuff said

[raptorsfan92]

Nice one bro.

Sorry do we not have the same records?

And looking at the stats Riders Points for 84 against 103

Hamilton for 73

against 71, think being positive in that category is alot better than negative?

[riderfanszmul]

who cares its week 4 you'll be humbled when you lose to us both games this year, and when you lose to montreal this week! We will beat Edmonton this week for sure we sell out every game we make more $ than anyone you make prolly least money u suck

[josenunez4]

wow i never knew canadians played football thats pretty cool

[CHC2P]

Ti-Cats Rule Go Ti-Cats Go!

[2605830]

YEAH!!

[onehundredandseven]

it was an awesome game

[bockner123]

hahahaha thats expexted the tiger cats get killed again cant wait to see them in person july 3rd to see the argos turn to pound hamilton

ARGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mietus12]

32-13 is what i thought.

[bockner123]

ya well i guess u have me there i mean what the hell what were the argonauts doing

[boygenius88]

Excellent win for the Alouettes, and big congratulations to Anthony Calvillo for passing Danny McManus.

Ti-Cats REALLY need to improve their defensive game. Having the ball for only 20 minutes will NOT help them win games, as it shows here.

[FischerFan]

Good post, BoyGenius88.

If A.C. is aging, he sure didn't show any of it in this game.  He shredded the Hamilton defence and the time of possession likely meant they were exhausted.

I'm afraid the penalties and turnovers that plagued the Ti-Cats last year haven't gone away.
