@DGTnTeacher @2andOutCFL @CFL It’s what I grew up watching. 🇨🇦football is what I grew up playing and coaching. To me, 🇨🇦 football is football.

The @2andOutCFL interview brings up a great question for me, as a Canadian (those of you who are Canadian) why do you love @CFL ? In the event you are Canadian and do not love CFL, why not?

@lisakirbie Having Andrew Scheer, a person the people of Canada and who his own party rejected as a leading spokesperson is just one of the many indications PP isn’t fit.

Ok, hear me out. The LPC don’t have a majority because of floor crossings, they have it because of the three by-election wins. Without that, they’d still be a minority govt saddled with a social conservative on their benches.

@FinleysFinest88 @PaulPabst @JSD12120831 In his 8 yrs of dominance, the Giants won two SBs with its defence. White’s 18 yrs produced one on an offensive minded team. Plus, in his 8 years, pretty confident I can build a team around him so I would rather have the most dominant defensive player while I am building my team.

@fp_farinaccio @PaulPabst @JSD12120831 Which is why its White of those 2. 8 vs 15 is all the argument needed. This isn't a top 100 list, you're drafting a team with the 1st pick of everyone ever. Availability and consistency matter so much more in the debate.

If you had the #1 pick in an all-time NFL Draft. The player you would pick to start your franchise, knowing what you know about his playing career....go! (I'm going with Reggie White. I get a first-team All Pro D-linemen for 15 seasons. No drop off.)

@PaulPabst @JSD12120831 LT changed the game. He was the prototype for the “on ball LB.” There is no TJ Watt, Kalil Mack, Derrick Brooks, Kevin Green, etc without LT. White was a dominant DE but did not create a position and permanently change how both offences and defences played.

@JSD12120831 Eight great years vs 15.

@lisakirbie It’s amazing to me how the playbook has been the same for corrupt dictators since Rome , build monuments to yourself, mint coins with your likeness on them, hold sporting events (games) like F1, World Cup, Olympics to distract your citizens.

@PaulPabst @dpshow @HiMyNameIsSeton Always felt Seaton had a bit of a Canadian sensibility to him and he choses to walk off with a great Canadian band.

Snug...late....@dpshow @HiMyNameIsSeton

@dpshow @HiMyNameIsSeton While I strongly believe everyone should pursue what they want to pursue, this announcement bum’s me out a bit. Over the years, @HiMyNameIsSeton has become the biggest reason I listen to the show. Going to miss his input.

After 6,766 shows, Friday will be Seton's final day on the radio show. "I'm not walking out the door... I'm, sort of, building a new room on this house." – @HiMyNameIsSeton

@brycedininger @SeizeTheNae No one in the U.S. can compare to Foster Hewitt, Danny Gallivan, Bob Cole, Dan Kelly, Jim Hughson, or Chris Cuthbert.

@SeizeTheNae You have to by sport. Hockey has to be Michaels and he locked that up in 1980. Scully baseball and Jim McKay for motorsports

Who’s the greatest play-by-play voice of all time? A. Vin Scully B. Al Michaels C. Mike Breen D. Keith Jackson E. Chick Hearn F. Marv Albert G. Kevin Harlan H. Pat Summerall

@13thManFootball @Shane_13thman Still the cleanest look in football.

If the #CFL were to do a "Retro Week" where teams had the chance to bring back a former logo & jersey, which logo & Jersey would you like your favourite team to bring back? #IsItJuneYet

@oldcanadaseries Two different team formed in two different leagues Ottawa that did not merger or play each other till the late 1950s and had very long histories, (1876 for Ottawa, 1904 for Sask.) so neither was going to change when the CFL officially formed in 1960.

Still hard to explain

@Stampeders1945 @TheElksHerd This is very cool. Where is the calendar? Is it on the other side.

This striking cloth CFL hanging calendar from 1972-73 is 12.5 by 27.5 inches in size. It features a generic CFL player carrying the ball and helmet logos for all 9 teams. Not sure where the calendar would be as it appears complete and intact and in excellent condition. 🇨🇦🏈

@ThatEricAlper Fight the Power - Public Enemy Elvis was a hero to most But he never meant sh*t to me you see

What's a song where another musician or band is referenced in the lyrics or title?

Sports radio in Italy is living it up after the win over USA in the WBC...trust me. radio.net/s/radiosportiva

@ThatEricAlper Suspicious Minds - Fine Young Cannibals

What a great cover song that's better than the original?

@lisakirbie Very presidential.

Grow the fuck up.

@RossTuckerNFL You should probably be seeing that about Mrs & Mrs Hughes. The Tkachuks were pretty absent in that game.

Friendly reminder if Keith Tkachuk and his wife had 2-3 more boys this game wouldn’t even be close. 🇺🇸

@PaulPabst We are like you, our cuisine is a version of something a culture brought over. Our big transgression is we introduced Hawaiian pizza to the world. If you get the chance, try a good Montreal bagel & some smoked meat. NY bagels & pastrami/corned beef don’t even come close.

@fp_farinaccio Same here. Great game. This was more of a joke about the lack of Canadian food options in my town.

If there were a good Canadian restaurant in my town, I'd drive over right now and talk some shit! Sadly, there isn't.

@Matt_S_Britton 200.mcgill.ca/history/worlds…

Walter Camp in the 1880s, who introduced key rules like the line of scrimmage, downs, and eleven-player teams, differentiating it from its parent sports. Neither Reuters nor Princeton are in Canada.

American football originated from rugby and soccer in the mid-19th century at U.S. colleges, with the first intercollegiate game between Rutgers and Princeton in 1869, and was shaped into its distinct form by

@Matt_S_Britton Yes we all know about Walter Camp who standardized American football bit the game he fashioned was a game introduced to them by us.
