SHRIMPDOR WAS A MAN
I mean, HE WAS A SHRIMP MAN
er, maybe also A DRAGON
or possibly

BUT HE WAS STILL
SHRIMPDOR


It's that time of year again! Where Canada makes the most of it's summer and takes it's place as a member of the North American Subcontinent with the start of it's own version of FOOT and BALL.

Tonight at 7.30pm EST, at Percival Molson Memorial Stadium, the Ottowa REDBLACKS will face the Alouettes de Montréal in a highly anticipated and what is to be a quite storied game. Will the REDBLACKS shake off last year's rocky franchise start in the face of the mighty Alouettes? Will the Alouettes start French rookie kicker Boris Bede over veteran Sean Whyte? Wasn't there something about Michael Sam in there?

HOW TO WATCH

TSN at 7.30 EST! Americans use ESPN2 tonight. Stream links as they come, so keep checking back!

I AM READY FOR SOME CANADA.

Okay way to jump me on this Suspect, thanks. Not like I had a thing ready~




A great week for kickoff as we strap in for fun! Crompton squares off against Burris, Higgins against Campbell, a bird against a giant-chinned lumberjack. gently caress Montreal

Canada doesn't have enough big cities to double the size

They could give one to Halifax...Regina...Quebec city?

They used to have a bunch of american cities but then let that die after a short while.

Sucks, I totally would go to Birmingham Barracudas games. Rename it the Continental Football League and fix the goal posts since it's less dangerous american-style anyway.
