As a Canadian, I can appreciate the history behind the CFL but as a football fan, its really not very good football. They have some highly skilled guys but lets be honest, if they were any good, do you think they would be playing in Canada? Its not like anyone coming out of college is saying to his team mate "Gee I hope the BC Lions draft me".

On a side note, if you think the CFL is poor, have you watched any of the CIS Football? Skilled position players (ie QB) are pretty sad. They can produce some decent linemen, but short of that, its just bad football.

Coming out of high school, I decided to pursue political science at Acadia University. I was pretty set on studying just that, but I found the material to be so incredibly repetitive and I decided to go a different route. I covered the football team for the student newspaper during my first year. That's where I started writing and building my portfolio (2008).

The team was awful, but it was exhilarating to be covering them at such a young age. They had one good player, a wide receiver named Devon Jones.

I ended up transferring back close to home, because although I did enjoy the school it just didn't have the types of programs I was interested in.

Growing up in the Valley, I went to a few Acadia Football games myself (hence my name on these forums) and its about as good as it gets for live football in that area. Its a fun environment to watch a live football game, but the quality of play is pretty sad.
