Are you a CFL fan, if so who's your team, the Alouettes? I'm an Argo fan myself, but my cousin is a die-hard Alouettes fan. We've got our CFL fantasy draft this weekend.

1. The Expos - don't even get me started, I don't have time for a 5 page post. But I do believe baseball can survive and flourish in Montreal. We're no different than 10+ other cities with MLB teams. Selig is so anxious to expand to new "international" markets like Mexico and Puerto Rico, he should start with CANADA. But I'll save my thoughts for an Expos rant at a later date
2. The CFL - I used to watch it a lot as a kid back when Warren Moon was dominating with the Eskimos. Then in 1981 I became a Skins fan and never looked back. The CFL is ok but I can't really get into it. They do have a knack for producing star NFL QBs though - Moon, Flutie, THEISMANN.
Let me ask you this - there are CFL fantasy drafts??????? Wow.
Not sure I can help you out too much. Of course if Matty shows me the big $$$, I may be willing to start a "Canuck's Alouette Minicamp Report" like JoeCrisp. In fact I live about 5 minutes from the Alouettes' DOWNTOWN STADIUM (see #1).
GO SKINS
Mr. Snyder - PLEASE BUY THE EXPOS
