Is there a queerer sounding name in all of sports than Alouettes?

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe he should look for a team named the "Pirouettes."

"Alouette" is a popular French Canadian[1] children's song about plucking the feathers from a lark,

Seems appropriate.

I;m from BC and a BC Lions fan. Anything from Montreal except for the Habs’ sound faggy. The poofter will fit right in that city.

One thing to add about the CFL is that it’s 3 downs vs the time wasting 4 downs to make a first down in the NFL. The field is 150 yards thus 30 yards longer than the average NFL field.

The team has two mascots, one of which likes “walking, running and jumping on his head”. Very weird stuff.

But I hear he is actually going deep and to try for wide receiver this time around.

I’m surprised he didn’t sign with the Ottawa Rough Riders.

So now that the NFL First Homo is Canadian perhaps the U.S. media can now safely ignore him (as they do all other things Canadian, hey?)
