Jesus, feel awful for Doug and Darren Flutie - I can't imagine how they must be feeling.

Parents of ex-QB Flutie die of heart attacks within an hour

Flutie wrote: "They say you can die of a broken heart and I believe it."

Flutie did not elaborate on the circumstances of their deaths, but called them "incredible parents and grandparents" who had been married for 56 years and were always there for their children.

Much as I think the CFL is the equivalent of Single A baseball, I enjoyed this read.

I still can't believe they put a team in fucking Shreveport lol.

Edmonton has taken the Stamps to the woodshed. What an ass whooping.

what I love about the CFL is that even with 14 points as a cushion and 2:35 to play the annoucers still believed (as did I) that a come back was a real possibility congrats on a solid season but Edmonton just had their number this year.

Edmonton was better on the day and deserved the win. What drives me crazy is the inconsistency of officiating in the CFL, it's a big issue that needs to get resolved. Also, I thought a helmet-to-helmet hit was illegal in the CFL (and that player safety was a important thing), clearly JC Sherritt is exempt (and I hope Messam is okay).

Tattooed on my back. Honestly I never got into it. The crowds were supposed to be good and it was supposed to be fun. A lot of my friends had season tickets and some even went on road trips (one to Shreveport lol) but I don't recall watching more than a couple games on TV. Its not a comment on the CFL product but probably just me being used to the NFL and being in my early to mid 20s and working lots of weekends. Or sleeping one off.

Zing!
