Redback, that’s me, Belly Button Chick is a scratcher.

Never heard of the Redblacks, so I’ll pickem! And the Blue Bombers, Eskimos, and Stampeders.

Has anyone ever watched a CFL game? I never have. It’s baseball season. Is there still Arena football?

And yes, Arena football is still around.

I watched the 2nd half of the Bombers/Eskimos last week, I half paid attention.

The current incarnation of the Arena League has only 4 teams according to Wikipedia.

Yea, just watched one on ESPN+.

Gadzooks and General Jackson-- Big's Redblacks rode roughshod over the Roughriders! Saskatchewan seemed snakebit from the git go.

I also watched last week's Edmonton Eskimos vs. Winnipeg Blue Bombers also on ESPN+ and Johnny's T-Cats at Calgary Stampeders on ESPN2. The plethora of offensive bodies in motion before the snap, a really deep endzone on a 110-yard field plus only three downs to make a first takes some getting used to, but it is football with passing, catching, blocks, sacking and running. Some good, so not so hot and some great but that is the same in any football game.

AND with Big surely set to become oh so French... in addition to his normal Green Bay/Pattycakeson style insufferable self over his precious Redblacks' success, it will be almost like home.

Bendy, don't call me... "Shirley!" Eh?

Si vous aimez regarder les grands hommes en sueur Chase et courir à l'autre... vous pouvez être un fan de football canadien--
