Not sure the CFL really steals fans when they overlap anyway, so I don't think it's a big deal.

BC/Sas game was crazy. Sas jumped up 31-0 and then had to hold on to win 32-29.

You can score 1 point without it being an extra point?

Yep, called a single or rogue. Any kick that goes into the endzone other than an extra point or made FG and isn't brought out of the endzone results in a point for the kicking team. Also a punt that goes out of bounds in the endzone is a point, but not a kickoff.

It's made some interesting finishes before where a missed FG could still win the game if the other team doesn't get out of the endzone.

Go Winnipeg. They have a very nice stadium, very fan friendly. Only holds like 30-40k or so I believe. But it’s a great place to watch football

That's a pretty big crowd for a CFL game.

True. It wasn’t sold out the games I went to. But it was a great game atmosphere. Not a bad seat in the house, good parking, and super accessible amenities.

Yep. And kudos to the new ownership in Vancouver; apparently he did a lot to reach out to the fanbase and generate interest and they had like I think 35,000 there. That's the biggest crowd they've had in years. They actually had to open up the upper deck which they haven't done since they last hosted a Grey Cup.

I sort of adopted the Lions as my CFL team after seeing them back about 5 years ago. They were terrible that year and I went to one of their final home games and attendance wise it was kinda bad but the ones that showed up were still pretty loud and passionate. So I'm glad the new guy is turning it around. Back in the 80s and 90s they were filling that place up most of the time.
