    Gators in the CFL: the return

    Been quiet, I'll admit. Part of the problem is that, with the Gators not being ranked in the top 5, I don't get to see a single game of theirs that ISN'T against those ranked teams, and maybe not even then. So, with less Gators in my life, I sometimes forget they play. My bad. But, I thought...

    Why No One Wants Tim Tebow

    I found this article that tries to explore why no NFL team wants Tim Tebow. It's awesome. It's a little long, but give it a read. https://medium.com/@imaliveoutthere/why-no-one-in-the-nfl-wants-tim-tebow-26d93b674ab5 TL;DR - GMs and Coaches are arrogant and stubborn. They'd rather lose...

    Gators (and SEC) in the CFL pt3

    Since my Blue Bombers have decided to suck out loud this year, and since I can't watch a Gators game because they never get shown on the national broadcast, I'm doing this early. I've compiled my annual list of Gators (and SEC, and probably some Florida) players who are now in the CFL. Enjoy...

    MMQB covers the CFL

    SI's MMQB spent a week up here, covering my beloved CFL. The articles are awesome and feature my even-more-beloved Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Why does this get posted in a Gators forum? Well, check out http://mmqb.si.com/2014/06/26/cfl-offseason-jobs-jon-cornish-calgary-stampeders/ - at the end...

    Stephen Alli in the CFL

    Apparently, my Blue Bombers picked up Stephen Alli, but according to the newspaper here: "Florida wide receiver Stephen Alli, drafted in the sixth round despite injury red flags, is still not healthy." Any news from down yonder about this guy? I don't recall seeing much of him, but last season...

    Happy New Year

    Hey all, I just wanted to wish you a happy new year, and best wishes and all that jazz. I enjoy this forum a lot, and always learn something new (even if it's how to properly construct the internet's longest run-on sentences from DRU). Also, so you understand my handle... today in Winnipeg it...

    Gators (and SEC) in the Grey Cup

    I was late this year in posting this. Mostly, I was late because my beloved Blue Bombers sucked so hard I'm surprised they didn't alter the gravitational pull of our sun, and so I really just couldn't bear the topic. But! As I do every year, here's a rundown of SEC (or others, I guess)...

    Gator Fans Everywhere

    There aren't a tonne of us up in my city, so when I share this, bear that in mind. I was standing at a bus stop and a dude pulls into the bus lane, rolls down his window, honks, and shouts, "Yeaaaaaah!!! Florida!! That's what I'm [expletive deleted] talking about! Go Gators!!!" And he...

    Dee Webb

    Just a note: Gator alumnus Dee Webb took a pick back for a TD yesterday against my beloved Blue Bombers.

    Annual CFL Playoffs Thread

    Last year I did this and people seemed to enjoy it. Since I didn't take a poll, I'm going to assume people don't object this year. So, without further ado: SEC (or state of Florida) people playing in this year's CFL playoffs. Eastern Final: Montreal Alouettes VS Toronto Argonauts Toronto...

    Annual Gators/SEC in the CFL thread

    This list seemed to go over last year, so I thought I'd resurrect it for the upcoming CFL season. Ever wondered what happened to your favourite Gators/SEC/whoever players who didn't make it to the NFL or AFL? Chances are, they're playing in the CFL. I won't go into all the differences here...

    Gators in Training Camp

    Hey all, Wanted to let you know that my beloved Blue Bombers have two Gators in training camp. I was out at training camp yesterday wearing my Gators hoodie (and my Bombers stuff, don't worry), and tried to see if either would look my way for a friendly Gator chomp. No such luck. Dustin Doe...

    Huge thanks

    Just wanted to post a note of thanks for the men and women of the Armed Forces. In Canada we're celebrating Remembrance Day (it's a Commonwealth thing), and I wanted to just voice my personal appreciation for the work that was done by American soldiers to help secure my country's freedom, and...

    Because I was asked...

    ...and need very little incentive to prattle on about the CFL, here's the story for the playoffs where they involve SEC (and especially Gators) players. West Semi-Final will be Calgary Stampeders vs Edmonton Eskimos. Edmonton Gators players: None Edmonton SEC players: Damon Duval (K) - Auburn...

    Traditions

    I'll admit to having never been to see a game at the Swamp. I was there, though, but it was March, raining, and no one was around. It was still a thrill for me, being a Gators fan who lives nowhere near anywhere they might ever possibly play. One day, I want to get to a game in the Swamp...

    Through My Eyes - book

    Anyone else reading Tim Tebow's book? I'm just into it, and it seems to be alright so far. I'm surprised it's as thin as it is, and some of the narrative is hard to follow, but I'm really liking seeing how the will to win he showed as an adult was borne out when he was just a kid.

    Planning a trip

    Hey all, My wife and I are planning a trip to Orlando, and I'm wondering if anyone here has a "can't miss" suggestion for a place for supper? We've got a few "burger" places already, and neither of us are really seafood people. Sorry if this is the wrong forum for this: it's just my...

    A Silly Facebook Game

    Hey all, I've been playing this ESPNU game on Facebook where you build a campus and whatnot. Anyway, most of my friends are Canadian (as I am), so they don't give a hoot about NCAA sports, and therefore this game has no interest for them. But, part of the game is having friends who play...

    Student Athletes

    A little background: 1) Canadian student athletes are rarely celebrities on campus 2) I work in Student Housing, and encounter students every day - often because they've broken the rules 3) I never went to a US college, so I just have media-types to believe. My question: Are student...

    Great Blue and Orange North!

    And a warm "good day, eh?" from Winnipeg! New to the board, not to the Gators. Looking forward to getting to know you, and living vicariously through your game-day experiences... :P Hard to drive to Gainesville for the games from Canada, after all!
