Canadian Football League Week 2 Picks & Live Thread

[Bender2]

Okay, week two rolls around and I know... what you all are thinking--

What... is a Redback?

Got me, Bendy-- What is... a Redback?

No, no- And DO NOT... show that again!

Anyway, I see the Roughriders making these Redbacks black and blue--

The Blue Bombers will clip the wings of them Godless Frenchies from Montreal--

While I still think Johnny will get into the game late, the Eskimos will best the T-Cats--

Lastly, Calgary will continue to stampede over the Argonauts--

So, y'all... get you pick in.

[Pollster1]

You forgot to get input from everyone's favorite Canadian.

[big'ol_freeper]

Um, ok. I’ll pick the...

REDBLACKS !!!!!!!!

Dainty Alouettes

Eskimos

Argonauts

[big'ol_freeper]

Um that’s REDBLACKS not Redbacks

[gr8eman]

What rhymes with “Alouettes”? Hmm...

[Kriggerel]

Well, when I was a kid, the playground song was:

Alouette... smokin’ cigarettas..
Alouette... smokin’ cigarettes.

And considering the fact that you almost NEVER see a Québecois without a cigarette in their face, it pretty much fits. :P

I missed her at the Rose Bowl. I would have remembered if I had seen those.......her.

[Pollster1]

I like Bellybutton Girl for her brains, and for her football analysis.

[gymbeau]

Go RedBlacks and Stampeders!
My Dad still lives in Ottawa and bemoaned the fact that the team had the bye for the first week (he wanted to see ‘em play).
He felt better when I noted to him that after week one, the RedBlacks were tied for first place in the East - and they hadn’t done a thing! Of course the three teams that did play all lost.
As they should have!

Re: Um that’s REDBLACKS not Redbacks

Gadzooks and General Jackson, Big-- You were the only one to catch that.

I couldn't find any photo to portray 'Redblacks'... so I went with Redbacks to see who, if anybody actually reads these posts.

[big'ol_freeper]

Well I usually don't read them but since I've adopted them as my team I read that part

[Bender2]

Re: since I've adopted them... as my team I read that part

Then... Big--

let us... get--

you in the proper... uniform.

[big'ol_freeper]

Nice hat, hey

Re: Nice hat, hey

Shouldn't that be... "Nice hat, eh?"

Or in your native French... "Joli chapeau, hein?"

Might as well give you a choice:

[M Kehoe]

Is Johnny football off the drugs and alcohol?

Or is it too soon to tell?

5.56mm

[big'ol_freeper]

The original chapeau was good

[Bender2]

Re: Is Johnny football off the drugs and alcohol?

'Yes,' it appears and 'No,' I've... got my finger crossed!

[Bender2]

Re: The original chapeau was good

Sorry, Big, cannot be sure what you said... as your accent is terribly thick--

Give Big break... he separated from mommie when he cross border.
