I'll watch soccer when Canada plays in international tournaments, but to watch manchester vs the spanish team that beckham plays for is pointless for me. I don't even know if those teams can play each other, Are they even in the same league?

I can watch baseball. I really go into it this past month with playoffs. I'm actually looking foreward to next season.

Hockey rules all in Canada. My city has an NHL team so i'm set. We even won tonight with out #1 goalie out.

Basketball i don't really watch, and NFL i don't watch either.

CFL Football I do watch cause the stamps rule all...even though were not in the playoffs.
after the argos destroyed the top team in our division, I'm sure we'll kill the stamps in the last game of the season and make the playoffs...

Flutie was better on Argos.
Do I really have to send you to the TSN maple leafs page again?

And when was the last time you went to a game and supported your team.

We had a shitty saeason and we only had 1 game under 30,000 people. Thats what makes a team. We've gone through 4 or 5 quarterbacks. Our #1 went out early in the season, we shipped Feterick off because he and his father (the owner) created such a ruckus. Our 3rd stringer got hurt in the 3rd quarter of last game and Crandell had to play against Sask hurt. We had no running game because Phillips thinks he's too much of a thug for football. We got rid of him a couple weeks ago because he did to us what he did in montreal and in the NFL. Our field goal kicker is retired and the new CEO of the team. Fred Feteri was a jackass and i'm glad we got rid of him earlier in the season. Stan Schwartz, president of the stamps for 28 YEARS quit the other day. McGarity our all star receiver is hurt. The team is in so much disarray, and yet people still go to the games to support our team. I'd like to see Toronto do that. Once a team doesn't win, you guys throw money at it. When that doesn't work, you stop going.

So lets recap.

Were on a 4th string QB
We have no RB since Phillips is gone
Our field goal kicker is the CEO of the team and is really retired
Fred Feteri was with the team for most of the year
Stan Schwartz quit
McGarity out for the season

That is how much shit we've been through. There have been so many off field distractions the players can't play, and so many injuries and other bad shit on the field i'm suprised we're where we are. This is why i'm proud to be a Stampeder.

Anyway, it could be much worse. I could be a Hamilton fan.
