Alright lads,
Lots to touch on after a review of the last few weeks of posts...
1. The move to a 12 team leaugue is a good thing and a step in the right direction...Canadian football at all levels can't continue to be about "participaction" and the only way to continually improve is to create a competitive environment...now each team can be made up of legitimate premier level players and a team needs to be consistently good to win a trophy!
2. The schedule pre-xmas break needs to get as many games in as possible because we can't control the weather...there is still a chance we get rained/snowed out 2 or 3 more times in Jan/Feb and the same guys whining about 3 weeks off were the same guys complaining 4 years ago when we had to play an Imperial game and a league game on the same weekend. There are plenty of teams available for exhibition games to prep for a cup run if you want to stay sharp!
3. Timing of Schedule is out of our hands based on BC being the only province with a Fall/Spring sched due to climate and the rest of the country can't change...and we can't change due to loss of fields to summer leagues/baseball permits in most districts. Clanbus wasn't a "different" side due to the timing of our league, they were a "depleted" side due to college players not being released due to the timing of Nationals.
4. Congratulations to both Alfredo Valente and Tiarnan King on the birth of their future footballers...Noah Valente and Arliss King will be great going forward but will need a bit of extra instruction on the art of defending!!!
5. Guiness is a wanker, Shamrock shouldn't drink and post or log on and pass out, HOS is the best GK in premier league history, KNVB is funny looking and Seds is too smart for everyone on this site!
I know for some of you, this is all old news but it seems that some of the "new" footballers around town don't quite get the little details behind the scenes that make our league work...common sense isn't very common!!!
All the best in 2008!
Like a fat kid playing dodgeball, I'm OUT!
