CFL 2009 Grey Cup: Montreal 28, Saskatchewan 27

[unak78]

Wow. What a game. Alot of sub-par quarterbacking at times by NFL standards, but very exciting.

[Main644]

NFL demands more out of a player than cfl does.

[Shawnceltics]

Why is the field goal infron of the end zone? lol that shit can make some incomplete passes..

[guillaume263]

For all u fkers who dislike candian football, it was created before american football. CFL has been around over 100 years while currently the superbowl is only 46 years old. The only reason why it's more popular is because you have a bigger audiance / population. Case closed.

[Jamesa7171]

@guillaume263 American football existed long before the Super Bowl, lol. American football - like Canadian football - dates back to the 1800s, while the Super Bowl is a relatively modern creation. Canadian football was first by a bit, yeah, but that has nothing to do with which sport is better.

[thegreig]

could someone give me a quick rundown of the differences between this and American football. thanks.

[guillaume263]

@thegreig 3 downs instead of four, though the field is wider (still 100 yards long). The football is also slightly bigger in CFL.

[guillaume263]

@guillaume263 110 yards*..mb

[chnaUe]

@thegreig only 3 downs in canadian football. The fields a little longer in canadian football and last but not least canadian football is actually older, so techniqually its the "real football" (not even up for debate you american haters lol) american footballs just more famous because america has way more people playing their sport and there's also way more money involved in their sport...

[thegreig]

@chnaUe ok thatnks mate, i've heard CFL is faster than NFL how is that though if cfl has more players?

[chnaUe]

@thegreig I've never heard that cfl is faster... The fact that cfl only has 3 downs might generate it changing quicker... I mean, when you only get 3 downs the ball posessions gona swap more and the game is gonna be more versitile.

[davidyow]

@thegreig there is a good article on wikipedia called Comparison_of_Canadian_and_Ame­rican_football

[thegreig]

@davidyow ok thanks mate i'll give it a read

[AnonTheRant]

canadian football is retarded...



[3freshlydone]

why the fuck is the field goal infront of the end zone..

[uofm97]

@3freshlydone The NFL had theirs at the goal line too, until the 1970s. Just watch any NFL Films show about the early days.

[punisher15764]

Stupid canadian football :p

[castlehastle]

hahaha listen to the als fan at 5:02

[frozendigits]

All the people that represent the 100 years of GAY RIDER PRIDE should know exactly what my last comment represents but i will be a jackass and remind you of that b.s you were all bragging about how the thirteenth man being your worst enemy, well apparently it was yours. HAHAHAHAHAHA

[frozendigits]

13th man IRONY i think so GO STAMPS GO!!!!!!

[tonewolfsyd]

I'm Australian, I have no idea what an "alouette" is or why your cup is Grey, not Silver or Gold, but I still prefer this over snore-bore pass-stop-run-stop-kick-stop-t­imeout-ad break-halftime show NFL

[tigerarmyrule]

I'm from Europe and frankly a noob about gridiron but CFL looks fun. OK we all know the NFL is bigger, richer and has better players but the different rules and downhome athmosphere at the CFL seems fun.

[Ichliebegermany]

@sdjackblack i know i was trying to make a joke

[Ichliebegermany]

retards kicking on 3rd down... o wait this is canadian football

[RyanXyz007]

these guys couldn't even beat the Rams

[2EnjoyDew]

how do u like this and why is there been 97

[NuisanceMan]

What a thrilling game, though a bit of a shame it came down to a bonehead penalty making the difference.

[GodLiberty]

CFL/NFL is a ridiculous 'sport' (its really an event). No spontaneity at all. The downs system is stupid and if you can throw the ball forward, why have a line of scrimmage? And why only one forward pass? Its nonsensical on so many levels.

[K1NGofCRAZY]

Lol

[DoctorBarbero]

I dont know the cfl, how did you make 1 point?

[CDxTWal]

ALSO, is there a 4th down?

[CDxTWal]

I'm form the US and I'm curious about something... perhaps a Canadian can help me. Why is the endzone so big, why is there a point rewarded for a missed field goal, and why do receivers sprint across the line before the snap? Is there a False Start penalty?

[Magnifico35]

@CDxTWal First, the end zones are big because it allows kick returners to run the ball out of the end zone on a missed field goal (same reason as to why the field goals are on the goal line). Also, touchbacks result in 1 point given to the kicking team, which encourages kick returners to bring the ball out of the end zone if they feel that they're going to get decent field position out of it. Lastly, in the CFL, all offensive backfield players, except the QB, may be in motion before the snap.

[Magnifico35]

@CDxTWal As long as they're behind the line of scrimmage of course...

[CnoteMCMXCVII]

NFL way better than ya'll canadians shit xD

[UncleSamProduction]

@CnoteMCMXCVII True but we have 8 teams and we are more for our hockey.

[BookemDeno]

@CnoteMCMXCVII then why are you watching the highlights of the 97th Grey Cup that happened two years ago?

[DoctorBarbero]

@CnoteMCMXCVII Kurt Warner play here so i dont thin is shit

[MyAccount4TrollingU]

Amazing how out of shape these players are when compared to nfl.

[SOBEGOLD]

how do Canadians not get shit for the cfl lol

[K1llJ0Y94]

@mhiggs13 yeah bc theres only 2 videos lol and no i dont watch cfl

[MegaCODlife]

gay...

[K1llJ0Y94]

this is how you know canadians are dumb why is the fg post in the front of the endzone and why is the endzone so large dumb canadians

[rossirod1]

@K1llJ0Y94 its a different game you retard!

[K1llJ0Y94]

@rossirod1so ur saying putting the fg post and the endzone that big is because its a different game i dont think so just dumb canadians

[ak122version]

@K1llJ0Y94 canadian football has different rules and slight differences in the field from the american football

[zoophobe1]

@K1llJ0Y94 yeah canadians are dumb... these players are all americans man... watch out when you say something because it can be a proof that your level of education is not very high

[K1llJ0Y94]

@zoophobe1 yeah but who created the rules and the field and stuff for the Canadian Football League canadians im not talking about players dumb ass think before u type shit it may indicate how low ur IQ level is

[MrJakomull]

@K1llJ0Y94 No actually the rules and field are derived from rugby. Canadians didn't create rugby.

Now that your argument has been shot full of holes, may I suggest you do some research before you type shit. Failure to do so will demonstrate that it's YOUR IQ that's low.

[K1llJ0Y94]

@MrJakomull  what ever you say dude it still says Canadian football leage not the canadian football rugby league

[MyAccount4TrollingU]

@zoophobe1 Hey frenchy, you're the IDIOT. Only half of the players can be non-canadian. These players are not all American.

[zoophobe1]

@MyAccount4TrollingU i sed that the players who made the fail where american and you never came to canada im sure of that how can you proove that every canadian are stupid? at least we are all humans we can make some mistakes so a lot of american and a lot of canadians make some mistakes you are not perfect stop comparing yourself to the others...

[MyAccount4TrollingU]

@zoophobe1 English, please.

[zoophobe1]

@MyAccount4TrollingU you can perfectly enderstand what i sed...

[BookemDeno]

@zoophobe1 yea you are sooooo right, we shouldn't compare to the Americans, we have higher standards. And lets talk about mistakes electing and then re-electing the president with the lowest IQ on record and who went to Iraq to find them weapons of mass destruction (where are they???) and who put the country from a surplus into deficit

[Tommy17889]

Montreal!!! Montreal!!! Montreal!!! Go Alouettes!

[juls151]

@Love4SK Your a faggot

[MrChopsticks69]

CFL has a BIGASS endzone hahah

[RedSandStudios]

Wow what an amazing comeback. I've never paid any attention to Canadian football before, but I just learned the differences today after visiting Vancouver and i find it pretty interesting.

[frozendigits]

how ironic 13th man being the worst enemy hahahahahah riders you suck

[Xtriley90]

Thumbs up if the only CFL you look is college football live :)

[benjiii4]

Thumbs down to two people going back in forth and back and forth and back and forth in the comment section.

[Love4SK]

wow, now thatz a trophy. not like that chrome dildo the nfl gives out

[DiegoFigueroa11]

Damn Canadians suck

[Love4SK]

@DiegoFigueroa11 usgay, see that was easy, go lose some more wars

[927vikes]

that green team looks lik the eagles the quarterback looks lik mike vick

[Mozartmostly]

these guys would be third string in the NFL

[festdir]

@Mozartmostly Warren Moon was third string?

[Mozartmostly]

@festdir Moon was drafted in NFL ? There is a difference.

[festdir]

@Mozartmostly No. He was drafted in the CFL, where he played for 6 yrs.

Then he entered the NFL as a free agent.

[Mozartmostly]

@festdir I guess there is always an exception. Thanks.

[aleneo01]

@Mozartmostly Except for anthony calvillo , Hes threw the most passing yards all time, Even more then every legendary QB is the NFL

[Mozartmostly]

@aleneo01 You could make the argument that NFL players are more skilled and that the NFL QB would have more difficulty than an CFL rare stud QB. That is to say, it is all subjective. Thanks.

[aleneo01]

@Mozartmostly That is very true, But In the NFL they also have better receivers. All i am trying to say is that Anthony calvillo might be a starter, if not a Back up QB in the NFL

[bradyisman1]

why is the end zone so big and the goal post on the field? does the NFL have copy rights to their field set up lol?

[tbob404]

bad day to quit drinking in Saskatchewan

[SellTheBenefits]

1) Take a shot of whiskey every time he says, ''Owt''

2) Then talk about that ridiculous 45 yard end zone.

[KnightsHospitallerBC]

Too many men on the ice penalty,...AGAIN!

[lilc1238]

im learning about the CFL cus my brother just got accepted to the CFL so i just wanna see if its just lik the NFL

[Love4SK]

@lilc1238 accepted? its a league, not a school

[lilc1238]

@Love4SK oh sorry i meant to say he went to the cfl he use to play in the nfl then he got traded

[RetroArcadia]

i could watch this 4eva, nfl blows

[msgoldoche2]

suck it canada go als go

[AGreasyOrphan1]

Green noobs

[Gerome63120m3]

hey why is the field goal in the touchdown area?

[thefreeagent4life]

@Gerome63120m3 since the end zone and the field in general are bigger than american football they put it at the start of the end zone to give kickers a better shot

[hockeyclown37]

WOW!!! i had never seen anything CFL before, and that was freakin cool! so much passion and energy in this game

[GoJays09]

Saskatchewan Roughriders = Counting Fail

[907AlphaKilo]

3:08 AMAZING run.... for a CFL game

[crater721]

I always knew i bleed green, I now found out that i cry green too...

[Sub4SubPlace]

If anyone is a Rider fan don't watch this video! And do not watch passed 6:45!

[Sub4SubPlace]

I still cant believe that Saskatchewan LOST THIS!

[jjman37]

First of all the CFL is the oldest football league in the world. It was there before the NFL. Second, there is nothing wrong with loving both leagues. Instead of being narrow minded and ignorant, show some love for the CFL and the NFL as each league brings its own flavor!!!

[icool247]

they have black ppl in canada? lol

[mrfwest]

@icool247 most of the black people in the CFL comes from america

[1994Reavis]

Let's play on giant fields with huge endzones and 12 men on the field because we're Canadian. NFL > CFL

[TheHarryLIam]

@1994Reavis im canadian and we play by NFL rules at my school, I fuckin hate the cfl, i think they should change the rules to match the nfl's rules...

[1994Reavis]

@TheHarryLIam Wow. You're the first Canadian to not be pissed at me making fun of Canadian football. Isn't it also true that CFL rules force the defensive line to line up ONE YARD away from the offensive line? I think that's a gay rule.

[TheHarryLIam]

@1994Reavis lol ya something like that

[dem5889]

canada should get with the program and run with NFL rules so we can actually get some international play going. your endzone is way too big. trust us, we've been playing football for a long time.

[stilleavy]

@dem5889 Canadas been playing it longer though, NFL have any teams that have been around since 1873?? didnt think so

[AGreasyOrphan1]

Lol Riders= 3 Grey cups, What a bunch of noobs

[ThatWhiteKid317]

so i'm an American and an avid NFL fan. i want some football to watch in the offseason, so i decided to follow the CFL. my only problem is who to cheer for. persuade me Canada.

[SuperVancouverBC]

@ThatWhiteKid317 MONTREAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Analeruption77]

@ThatWhiteKid317 Calgary Stampeders.

[TheHarryLIam]

@ThatWhiteKid317 CFL sucks dont watch it, and nobody give me any crap cuz i am canadian and live in montreal

[stilleavy]

the NFL sucks, Its called the No Fun League for a reason. they get 4 downs and still cant score on a SMALLER field. and dont get me started on their retarded overtime rule and pussy fair catch rule. The CFL is a blast though, i love it.

[whitesox889]

@stilleavy You have to realize that the field is narrower, you don't have people in motion while the ball is snapped, and you only have 11 people on the field. Combine that with the fact that defenses are tougher and tighter, and you get less scoring.

[ashenhurstphoto]

@whitesox889 @silleavy dont forget the field is 110yrds not 100 ;)

[927vikes]

@ashenhurstphoto i love cfl 4 that nfl makes it easy

[stilleavy]

@ThatWhiteKid317 ARGOS

[govrom12]

In the states of course we love college football and the NFL, but the CFL is a really exciting brand of football. This is my first year watching it on ESPN3 and I'm getting hooked. I love the enthusiasm of the Roughrider fans. I"m guessing that it's an exciting environment at Mosaic for every Saskatchewan home game.

[Mitchdagitch]

being a rider fan, i find it tough to not wonder, what if after the fantuz catch, they would've tried endzone instead of electing to go for that 9 yard field goal hmmmmmm...............

[arwen2777]

Easily one of the most exciting CFL finals ever.

[solomonredsox]

looks just like NFL to me. Just the field looks a little weird and the announcers talk funny. XD

[calgarystampeders85]

me and my dad were lau

ghing so hard at the end of the game riders didnt deserve it

[iTortalini]

I know nothing about the CFL, it looks interesting though. What's the Grey Cup?

[SuperVancouverBC]

@iTortalini its the championship game. its basically the super bowl of the cfl

[montrealredsox]

As an alouettes fan, you can't help but cry and feel bad for the riders, it was definitely an incredible comeback, but they had the game, too bad they don't know how to count

[TrueYankeeforever]

is there a difference between this and the NFL?

[coop08]

Only thing better than the finish of this game is those losers in green have started an amazing 0 and 3 this year!!

[SuperVancouverBC]

@thisworldwill this is canadian football

[Andyman1999k]

The roughriders r the true winners of the 97th grey cup

[dsiwiiwalkthroughs]

The game ain't over till the fat lady sings.

[frozendigits]

That was a really awesome day in C.F.L history the roughriders chocking it was so awesome. The very next year they did the same thing against montreal but lost because they sucked not because of thirteen men. 100 years of gay pride i don't know why you would celebrate something like that but each to their own i suppose.

[oJKBo]

lol wtf is the goal post doing in the field?

[FreekyDeeky21]

I still would like to see them bring back the american teams in the CFL and I would like to see the CFL champion vs the NFL champion.

[MrKidzack]

dis was good plus during dis yr da saints won da superbowl

[LGleopard20]

do they get rings like they get when an nfl team wins the super bowl?

[ston3s]

@LGleopard20 No. They give them ringolos.

[meany1023]

@LGleopard20 yes

[fly6622]

3:06.. Canadian mashawn lynch

[fullmoondrivein]

This reminds me of Tom Brady's final drive in Super Bowl XXXVI. The only difference id there was no flag at the end. However the Patriots won over the St. Louis Rams 20-17.Very exiting video. If the NFL does not solve their lockout,the CFL may be the only pro game we will see.

[allday920]

MrCougars26 ahaha USA all day

[MrCougars26]

this is a joke. can't even compete with the NFL. LET"S GO AMERICANS!!!!!! CANADIANS CAN SUCK MY COCK!!! EH?

[multiedge22]

@MrCougars26 so maby the nfl should send some real players right

[frenchycanada]

@MrCougars26 Right..not enough selfish overpaid 'look at me' criminals in our CFL. A league that existed before yours. Being different doesn't mean better or worse just different. Many of us are fans of both leagues for different reasons, a concept unfamiliar to you in which case y'all can suck our balls....which btw are BIGGER!

[MrCougars26]

@frenchycanada Shutup fool!!!!!!!! College kids could beat some of these suck ass teams.

[meany1023]

@MrCougars26 lol u stupid american our football has been around 50+years longer then ur gay american football lol o and this is prob gonna be the only football ur going to see this year have fun watching the lock out lol fucking greedy ass americans

[kadirtasci1]

Lol what if football hit the field goal and fall on the ground is it gonna be fumble

[oJKBo]

LOL wtf why is the field goal in the endzone?

[Ichliebegermany]

silly canadians the goalpost goes at the end of the endzone not in the middle

[reptile1104]

everytime i watch canadian football, there's just something... off about it that i'm not used to

[fly6622]

@reptile1104 maybe its how big the endzone is..

[Milkface1234]

Man!!! What an amazing game!!!! I wish they aired this more in the U.S. because I'm tired of seeing the MN Vikings losing all the time. ;(

[meunier251]

@Milkface1234 Watch the 2010 season opener rematch. That game will blow your mind after watching this!

[bravesnipz]

those guy suck at punting i can punt it farther and im 15

[TRDIGFV]

@bravesnipz

good job.

[Archangel101576]

Is the CFL popular in Canada? The NFL is king here in the United States. I know hockey is popular up there, but is football equally - or almost as - popular in Canada?

[dustinsteeves]

@Archangel101576 football is bigger than hockey here. definitely!

[DarthSchwartz]

@Archangel101576 CFL is popular, but football in general still has a long way to go in Canada before it's anywhere near as popular as hockey.

[zoophobe1]

@Archangel101576 actully its our 2nd national sport but there is still much too do if the football in canada wants to be equal to the hockey

[SuperVancouverBC]

@zoophobe1 no its not lacrosse is canada's second national sport

[zoophobe1]

@SuperVancouverBC is there 1/3 of the canadian waching the (championship of the lacrosse).. no. thats why football is canada 2nd national sport; and what is lacrosse btw??? lol

[SuperVancouverBC]

@zoophobe1 u should google it. lacrosse is canada's second official nation sport

[zoophobe1]

@SuperVancouverBC i find this in wikipedia: Lacrosse (in particular box lacrosse) is the national summer sport of Canada. its the summer national sport because football is played summer and fall so its a multi-season sport and i found this too in wikipedia by typing CFL : the most popular football league in Canada, and the second-most popular major sports league in Canada, after the National Hockey League

[SuperVancouverBC]

@zoophobe1 yup i know

[zoophobe1]

@SuperVancouverBC so why you tell me that lacrosse is 2nd national sport?

[SuperVancouverBC]

@zoophobe1 because it is

[montrealredsox]

im a huge als fun but i cry everytime i see this, just feel so bad for the roughriders

[HalfChinaman]

FUCK YOU DURANT FUCK YOU CAN'T THROW A FUCKING FOOTBALL?!!!

[tendresseak27]

This has to be one of the most epic football game ever! Down 27-11 with less then 8 minutes to play in the 4th quarter!

[thedraziw101]

their so slow lol

[ThaPlayahFR]

21 people who dislike are Roughriders players

[StupidTeddybear]

Funny how football players that come from the CFL are well developed and are alot tougher and can actually catch a ball. uunlike many NFLer's

[sb9998]

Lol in the NFL at 2:28 it would be ruled incomplete

[wildkittyv1]

@sb9998 Yeah, I'm guessing they play by the college rule of only needing 1 foot inbounds in order for it to be ruled a completion.

[FurlogTheGiant]

I don't understand the fight of American vs Canadian Football...

who cares how big the field is, how many downs, how many players. Gridiron in general is IMO the greatest sport ever made because it's war with a ball. Most Canadians love Hockey (I love Hockey too). but Gridiron Football to me is the most fun to watch. This was a great game. 28-27 doesn't get much better than that. I like American college football the best but this CFL is a great game too.

[11antho]

winner  28 loser 27 mtl 4ever

[Bathory1988]

That endzone is huge lol

[manonfire215]

cfl vs nfl why havent they done this yet? i know the two play by different rules but if there could be one game every year played by alternating rules it would be awesome.

[DarthSchwartz]

@manonfire215 /watch?v=kmcTGvBFMVM

@manonfire215 Because there isn't enough money in it for one. Why would an NFL guy getting 2.7 mill a year risk blowing out his knee to say he beat some Canadian? If you don't believe me...just watch the Probowl. Same thing there. No hits, no hustle, no football. Not only should the CFL vs NFL game never happen, but the ProBowl should never happen. What a waste of a perfectly good football field.
