Also I'm not saying it's the toughest sport ever -- but you really need to comprehend that just because you have padding, doesn't make it physical, tough or hard sport to play. With these pads and helmets, these players are also able to perform and go for hits that a Rugby player simply wouldn't do, like leading with your head which can be a pretty vicious hit.
The announcer is a little TOO generous in his measurement of what constitutes 5 yards. The rule is not only being 5 yds., but also giving 5 yds. The first MTL player made no attempt to give 5 yds. & was less than when the TOR player started picking up the ball to punt. Hence, a penalty.
Also, the TOR player looks like he was either ON or OVER the Dead Line when he touched the ball, which would have automatically been a Rouge, anyways. (Though, I'd need to see another angle.)
@evspatsfan22 If the hits are comparable, then there's really no reason for the armor in American Football, is there? One group of players plays their sport both sides (offense-defense), full-time, with no padding; the other doesn't. 'Nuff said.
@mwidunn Just watch the video before you make dumb comments. They're not comparable. If you watched the video, you'd realize American Football players delivered hits that were 3 times harder than Rugby players. But Rugby players hit more often so they even out at the end of the day. But the hit from the American player was equivalent to a car crash at 35 mphs/56 kmh, it also pushed in their sternum to their spine by 2 and 1/4.
@mwidunn And before you spout bullshit about the LA rugby team -- keep in mind they used some no name CB also. Put in Demarcus Ware,James Harrison, or Ndamukong Suh and that number is WAY higher. Both sports are tough, just realize they're actually NOT comparable. Besides, American Football is based a lot around strategy, and injuring star players doesn't do anything to help the sport. The pads help dissipate the force, avoiding injury, but there's still a LOT of force and pain involved.
@Redemptionx7 Maybe, armor IS necessary in case one of those fat, bloated, oxygen-sucking offensive linemen falls on you: youtube[dot]com/watch?v=azQ7K6JxSlc. American Football is a tedious spectacle that tries to pass itself off as much more physical than it really is. Take the armor off; play both ways for a full 60 min. with severely limited subs; and, don't stop the clock. Do those and, then, maybe American Football is on its way to being respectable.
@mwidunn I tried your link, however it didn't work.
They need armor because as I said -- a hit by a no name CB is equivalent to a 35 mph car crash. If that's not physical, I'm not sure what is. If you don't like American Football that's fine, but stop being so ignorant by saying It's not respectable, as if it's not already a multi-billion dollar industry with hundreds of millions of fans. You call it tedious spectacle, and we find reptitive running back and forth tedious. It's all subjective.
@evspatsfan22 If the hits are comparable, then there's really no reason for the armor in American Football, is there? One group of players plays their sport both sides (offense-defense), full-time, with no padding; the other doesn't. Enough said.
@Love4SK Actually the NFL has several franchsies that date back to the 20's, they just go by different names now. In the US, College Football was the big attraction until around the 30's when college players started making the transition to the pro game, from there the NFL began to grow in popularity.
@SuperVancouverBC idk they didnt look so big to me. muscle wise 2. but i dont watch this alot so i shouldnt judge. plus i actually think this is more exciting than football over here in america lol. we shuld do it this way
I SWEAR TO GOD the next person that posts "What is this! Why are the kicking! I'm so confused (and can't read the hundreds of times it's already been explained in the comments) so instead I'll just make blanket comments about Canada being weird!" I'm going to go fucking bonkers.
@theevilm1 In the CFL, a point is rewarded to the kicking team on a missed field goal, unless the ball hits the upright or is brought out of the end zone by the opposing team. In this case, Toronto had to get the ball out of the end zone in order to send the game to OT. Also, there are no "fair catches" in the CFL. Instead, the kicking team has to give five yards of seperation between the ball carrier and the tackler, or else they get penalized.
@theevilm1 The kicking team would have won the game, even if the kick was missed. The defense had to get the ball out of the endzone one way or another, they could run it out, or they could kick it back out. They chose to kick it out, and if they would have been able to take control of the ball, after kicking it out, they would win the game. They weren't able to, and the kicking team fell on the ball in the endzone resulting in a td.

@kjred1796 Canadian football allows kicks anywhere on the field, not just from a snap -- it's a weird rule, rarely used. If the Montreal (in white) field goal was no good, but the ball went out of the back of the end zone anyway -- or if Toronto (in blue) downs the ball in their end zone -- Montreal gets a single point and wins the game. So, Toronto's going to try to get the ball back out any way it can, preferably by running it out or, as seen here, kicking it back out (which is legal). Fun!
@thepapers100 i have watched a lot of cfl games in the past few years and so far i have never seen a pass bounce off the post..............but i have seen players do it
The CFL has been around longer than the NFL. The Grey Cup (CFL Championship Game) will celebrate its 100th year on 2012. I'm an American, live in Chicago and a Bears fan but I also know that American Football was derived from Canadian Football.
@vgcancino u retarded? Cfl came out in '58 and nfl came out in the '20s. Nfl came out first. And who cares about global popularity? Soccer is actually extremly boring to watch. Football - Soccer.
@Iliketheravens You're partially right. The FFL's Grey Cup has been around for a 100 years but the modern CFL didn't come into existance until the middle of the 1900's. Before then College teams along with semi-pro teams would compete for the Grey Cup.
@eddiehatch i'm sorry your dumbass warped American brain can't handle the FACT that the CFL came around 1st. but what do you expect from an egotistical country that calls all their national champions, World Champs and think the rest of the world watches their sports, which is so far behind soccer in global popularity, it's not even funny.
@vgcancino Sure, the Grey Cup was around before the NFL, but football in America has been around just as long if not longer. Remember, college football was essentially like the NFL in the first part of the 1900's, it was a very popular game and when big time college stars began making the transition to the NFl in the 30's the NFL subsequently started to grow in popularity. The CFL as you know it today didn't exist until the 1950's. So technially, the NFL was around first.
@quentin98765 Your point 1 isn't correct. The NFL moved their goal posts TO THE GOAL LINES in the 1930's, then moved them back to the back of the end zones in the 1970's.
@quentin98765 No no, they didn't move the goal posts back until later. You need to check your facts. They had goalposts at the front of the endzone at least into the 50's from what I've seen from old footage.
@555rest no, they can run it out if they want... if the play ends with the ball IN the endzone, its either a single point for Montreal (if a Toronto player is downed in the EZ) or a touchdown (if Montreal recovers it). Either way Montreal wins the game. So, Toronto has to get the ball out of the EZ. Easiest way is to kick it out. Montreal needs to get it back IN (or through) to get the single point. In all the madness Montreal ended up recovering it in the EZ, so its a touchdown...
@firerustdragon only on punts and field goals... if it goes through the back, or the receiver is downed (one way or another) in the endzone, its a single point...
this play right here is what ruins CFL. singles? so stupid. tie game? kick that bitch out the back of the field. its too easy to score in this game. 20 yard endzones??? thats 20X65 yards. 1300 sq yds. 1300! what defense can cover 1300 sq yards? If canadians wanted to rip off the NFL they shoulda made it more skillful. im pretty sure my high school football team could dominate the CFL. Go pats!
I watch both sports and likes both and they both have their positives and negatives but to the ignorant Americans making comments about this not being real football. CANADIAN FOOTBALL WAS INVENTED FIRST and if it wasn't for the game between McGill and Harvard. The U.S. version of football may not be what it is today or may in fact not even exist! Don't believe me? Look it up in Wikipedia under ."Comparison of American and Canadian football."
@mnbvvvbnm As an open minded individual, I have to say, definitively, that the CFL doesn't suck. It's just super weird and quirky, and its rules seem to be made up on the spot.
why do people compare NFL to CFL?? I'm Canadian and I watch NFL games every sunday but I also like how the CFL is different and brings another type of show. Sure most NFL players are better athletes but those who play in the CFL have a real passion for what they do because they aren't paid that much and still keep playing.
@mnbvvvbnm This is like an American high school football team with the organization and logistics. Let's not forget we have college football for the passion you mention. Furthermore we have dozens of semi-pro league players that don't get paid shit but they keep playing. Also I think the Arena Football League has a better chance than the CFL
@dirty30yo in Canada we don't give as much importance to football as you do in the US even tought it's growing in popularity. That's why we don't have huge stadiums and media coverage. Still, the games are nice to watch there's more big plays because the field is bigger you should try watching it. All I'm saying is americans should stop getting offended when they see this, be open minded. And if you don't like it just don't say it sucks it's a matter of taste
@dirty30yo There's no way the AFL is more talented than the CFL, simply because the CFLoffers way better salaries. (400$ per game average compared to 2,300$ per game minimum, not including bonuses). Also, there've been many many former CFLers who've moved on to star in the NFL over the years. No matter which way you cut it, the CFL is the second highest level of professional gridiron football in the world.
i prefer the NFL, Im from Canada, i just cant get into CFL football, i dont mind it. In highschool and in College here, anyway, we play a hybrid football game which is pretty cool, its 12-12 with 4 downs, and the 1 point with a missed field goal and such. It works well. What i dont like about the CFL is that these guys are pro athletes.. and they arent getting paid properly, i just read the avrage salary is like 100k..average salary for a rookie in the nfl is 800k or so. thats retarded
@XxGoHabsGo31xX They aren't getting paid porperly? Dude, pro athletes in the states are over paid if you asked me. Think about it, these guys are entertainers playing a game and they make millions. They make more than people who have jobs that are actually important. Teachers, Fireman, Police Officers etc.
When the world ends, being a star football player won't be considered a desirable skill.
@GoongalaGoongala I agree. What i was trying to get across was more of; if you had the choice of the NFL or CFL, might as well take the NFL; same sport, more money and arguably a higher caliber of play. These dudes are over-paid. I don't think my cousin who plays for the Pittsburgh Penguins is worth a couple million but fuck, good for him.
Canadians are dumb look at the size of the dang endzone and they have the fg post in the front stupid retards whats the point of that so the kicker can actualy make fgs or so the qb can throw it through for 3 NFL all the way
@K1llJ0Y94 The point of the field goal posts being in front is that it allows kick returners to bring out a missed field goal for a return. It's much better than a lame-ass touchback...
@K1llJ0Y94 Lame excuse. If you look at the stats, you'll see that the kicking percentages are very comparable to one another. The top-end kickers in the NFL might be better, but look past the top four and you'll see that the numbers are very similar.
@Magnifico35 most of the time fg are done when there in range if someone has enough room to return in then the kicker is out of range so fgs are kicked in range so theres no return
@K1llJ0Y94 Well of course (as is the case in the CFL)... But if they miss, the ball goes out of bounds instead of in the end zone, which makes NFL field goals utterly boring.
this @Love4SK guy talks so much shit about americans fact is canada is gay thats why they havent made it ne were in sports have they? no didnt think so butt hurt thats all u r CFL and canada can lick my mexican ball sack and my american ass! haha
@Love4SK lol really? i'm not even gonna comment on this because it would take to long to prove most of your points wrong. the only reason your involved in our current battles is because of the UN which is based where? you don't always fight in our wars, we don't lose all wars (revolutionary war smart one????) yeah we invaded canada ya we were pushed back, because you had BRITISH troops defending. you don't solo fight all wars we are involved in. that's just the beginning.

In the CFL, a point is rewarded for every missed field goal that either doesn't hit the upright or isn't brought out of the end zone by the opposing team. In this case, the Argonauts had to get the ball out of the end zone in order to send the game to OT. Also, "fair catches" don't exist in the CFL. Instead, the team kicking the ball needs to give 5 yards once the kick returner has possesion.
Will everyone please like this comment so it appears on top and people will stop asking?? Thanks!
@Magnifico35 Isn't is true that not only a field goal but also a punt that is not brought out of the end zone is worth one point? So, at the end of the game needing one point why not just punt the ball out of the back of the end zone? Or do I have the rule wrong? Thanks for the great explanation.
@plokmji Yes, you're correct... But a field goal attempt probably isn't as risky as a punt simply because that way you have a chance to get 3 points (with no return) even if it doesn't travel 55 yards (which would be the required distance for the ball to travel the entire end zone in this case), plus a punt seldom travels more than 50 yards...
Did he try to miss the field goal?!? That would have simple for any NFL kicker. I don't understand, why are they kicking it back out of the endzone? The only thing good that's come from Canada is Jon Lajoie, look him up.
CANADIANS PLEASE STICK TO YOUR OWN SPORT LIKE HOCKY, INSTEAD OF TURNING BEAUTIFUL AMERICAN GAME INTO SHIT...GET IT STRAIGHT IM NOT AMERICAN, IM FRENCH POLYNESIAN STUDENT IN AMERICA, AND LOVE NCAA NFL NBA.................. NHL WELL WE'LL GIVE THAT TO YOU CANADIANS. OH ONE MORE THING........... NOUS VOULONS UN QUÉBEC INDÉPENDANT.....LIBRE AU QUÉBEC.
@k4n3n1 Euh... Comment est-ce que ton dernier commentaire a rapport avec cette vidéo??? Anyways, why the hell do you feel the need to criticize a league that has saved so many great athletes' careers by rising them out of the oblivion and giving them a chance to succeed? I'm sure Cam Wake, Warren Moon, Doug Flutie, Mike Vanderjagt, and an endless amount of others would differ...

@vgcancino Sure, the Grey Cup was around before the NFL, but football in America has been around just as long if not longer. Remember, college football was essentially like the NFL in the first part of the 1900's, it was a very popular game and when big time college stars began making the transition to the NFl in the 30's the NFL subsequently started to grow in popularity. The CFL as you know it today didn't exist until the 1950's. So technially, the NFL was around first.

FOR THOSE WHO DON'T UNDERSTAND
1. The NFL moved their goal posts to the back of the end zones in the 1930's, the CFL didn't
2. The equivalent of a touchback in the CFL during kicks or punts awards the kicking team 1 point.
3. The kicking team must be 5 yards from the returner when he receives the ball, otherwise its a 5 yard penalty to the kicking team
This was a tie game, the Argo's just wanted the ball OUT of the end zone to go to OT, the Als just needed the ball downed in the end zone to win

@quentin98765 Your point 1 isn't correct. The NFL moved their goal posts TO THE GOAL LINES in the 1930's, then moved them back to the back of the end zones in the 1970's.
NuisanceMan 2 months ago
@quentin98765 No no, they didn't move the goal posts back until later. You need to check your facts. They had goalposts at the front of the endzone at least into the 50's from what I've seen from old footage.

i dont get it so if the opposing team touches it i tthe endzone they have to kick the ball out?
555rest 3 months ago
@555rest no, they can run it out if they want... if the play ends with the ball IN the endzone, its either a single point for Montreal (if a Toronto player is downed in the EZ) or a touchdown (if Montreal recovers it). Either way Montreal wins the game. So, Toronto has to get the ball out of the EZ. Easiest way is to kick it out. Montreal needs to get it back IN (or through) to get the single point. In all the madness Montreal ended up recovering it in the EZ, so its a touchdown...

If canadians wanted to rip off the NFL they shoulda made it more skillful. im pretty sure my high school football team could dominate the CFL. Go pats!

I watch both sports and likes both and they both have their positives and negatives but to the ignorant Americans making comments about this not being real football. CANADIAN FOOTBALL WAS INVENTED FIRST and if it wasn't for the game between McGill and Harvard. The U.S. version of football may not be what it is today or may in fact not even exist! Don't believe me? Look it up in Wikipedia under ."Comparison of American and Canadian football."

why do people compare NFL to CFL?? I'm Canadian and I watch NFL games every sunday but I also like how the CFL is different and brings another type of show. Sure most NFL players are better athletes but those who play in the CFL have a real passion for what they do because they aren't paid that much and still keep playing.

@mnbvvvbnm This is like an American high school football team with the organization and logistics. Let's not forget we have college football for the passion you mention. Furthermore we have dozens of semi-pro league players that don't get paid shit but they keep playing. Also I think the Arena Football League has a better chance than the CFL

@dirty30yo in Canada we don't give as much importance to football as you do in the US even tought it's growing in popularity. That's why we don't have huge stadiums and media coverage. Still, the games are nice to watch there's more big plays because the field is bigger you should try watching it. All I'm saying is americans should stop getting offended when they see this, be open minded. And if you don't like it just don't say it sucks it's a matter of taste

@dirty30yo There's no way the AFL is more talented than the CFL, simply because the CFLoffers way better salaries. (400$ per game average compared to 2,300$ per game minimum, not including bonuses). Also, there've been many many former CFLers who've moved on to star in the NFL over the years. No matter which way you cut it, the CFL is the second highest level of professional gridiron football in the world.

i prefer the NFL, Im from Canada, i just cant get into CFL football, i dont mind it. In highschool and in College here, anyway, we play a hybrid football game which is pretty cool, its 12-12 with 4 downs, and the 1 point with a missed field goal and such. It works well. What i dont like about the CFL is that these guys are pro athletes.. and they arent getting paid properly, i just read the avrage salary is like 100k..average salary for a rookie in the nfl is 800k or so. thats retarded

@XxGoHabsGo31xX They aren't getting paid porperly? Dude, pro athletes in the states are over paid if you asked me. Think about it, these guys are entertainers playing a game and they make millions. They make more than people who have jobs that are actually important. Teachers, Fireman, Police Officers etc.
When the world ends, being a star football player won't be considered a desirable skill.

@GoongalaGoongala I agree. What i was trying to get across was more of; if you had the choice of the NFL or CFL, might as well take the NFL; same sport, more money and arguably a higher caliber of play. These dudes are over-paid. I don't think my cousin who plays for the Pittsburgh Penguins is worth a couple million but fuck, good for him.

K1llJ0Y94 3 months ago
@K1llJ0Y94 The point of the field goal posts being in front is that it allows kick returners to bring out a missed field goal for a return. It's much better than a lame-ass touchback...

@K1llJ0Y94 Lame excuse. If you look at the stats, you'll see that the kicking percentages are very comparable to one another. The top-end kickers in the NFL might be better, but look past the top four and you'll see that the numbers are very similar.
Magnifico35 3 months ago
@Magnifico35 most of the time fg are done when there in range if someone has enough room to return in then the kicker is out of range so fgs are kicked in range so theres no return

@K1llJ0Y94 Well of course (as is the case in the CFL)... But if they miss, the ball goes out of bounds instead of in the end zone, which makes NFL field goals utterly boring.

In the CFL, a point is rewarded for every missed field goal that either doesn't hit the upright or isn't brought out of the end zone by the opposing team. In this case, the Argonauts had to get the ball out of the end zone in order to send the game to OT. Also, "fair catches" don't exist in the CFL. Instead, the team kicking the ball needs to give 5 yards once the kick returner has possesion.
Will everyone please like this comment so it appears on top and people will stop asking?? Thanks!

@nannerz716 The ball carrier gets tackled in the endzone = "Rouge" and 1 point for the kicking team.
The Argonauts get the ball out of the endzone = 0 points for the kicking team.
Magnifico35 3 months ago
@Magnifico35 Isn't is true that not only a field goal but also a punt that is not brought out of the end zone is worth one point? So, at the end of the game needing one point why not just punt the ball out of the back of the end zone? Or do I have the rule wrong? Thanks for the great explanation.
plokmji 3 months ago
@plokmji Yes, you're correct... But a field goal attempt probably isn't as risky as a punt simply because that way you have a chance to get 3 points (with no return) even if it doesn't travel 55 yards (which would be the required distance for the ball to travel the entire end zone in this case), plus a punt seldom travels more than 50 yards...
