  1. Oh man, I have bookmarked that website to read through it. I have such fond memories of the USFL...watched all I could and attended many Tampa Bay Bandits games back in the day. Still miss that league to this day...curses to Trump and his push to go to the fall.

    Looks good. This is more of just  random question but wouldn't LumberJills make more sense than LadyJacks?

     

    To me I never understood feminizing a school mascot name or adding "Lady" in front of it...Lady Buffaloes or Lady Gators or whatever. Most names are not masculine in and of themselves, Lumberjacks included...yes, while most lumberjacks are likely male, I'm sure they have been and still are female lumberjacks. After all, we don't say Man Buffaloes or Man Gators when referring to the male teams.

    Years ago I was arguing about cfl vs what ever league on the web with some guy from Canada. He had all these preposterous claims of and this is my all time favorite one ever. 😂😂😂

     

    He claims: The 1984 Blue Bombers would’ve destroyed the 1984 49ers (

    basically CFL vs NFL champs of that time). Never laughed harder in my life yet it had me thinking. Is the CFL really that good?  Uh. Nah! 

     

    It would be kind of fun to see some NFL-CFL match ups. I really do wanna know. 

     

     

     

     

     

    The need for a debate of this type always slays me. They are two different animals because of the rules. One example is the wider field and having the d-line a yard off the ball requires a bit smaller and more agile offensive linemen.

     

    I'm a HUGE CFL fan...have been for about 5 years now and the caliber of players in the NFL is definitely better than that of the CFL. But so is the level of athlete in DI football to DIAA, DII, DIII, etc. and on down to juco and high school. That's not to say you can't watch some great, exciting and entertaining football at the "non-elite" levels. It's more about the level of competition being relative to each other, having well coached athletes, good game plans, etc. Many, if not most, of the CFL players are just a slight notch below their NFL counterparts...good, but just not good enough.

     

    It's a spectacularly exciting brand of football to watch.

    (I am just catching up with this thread; hence my response to a comment from several months ago.)

     

    I must say that I really dislike this comment.

     

     

    I'm right there with you man, as long as the talent level is fairly equal from team to team some great and entertaining football can be played. Just look at all levels of college and even down to high school...fun stuff and the vast majority of those players ARE NOT NFL caliber.
