I watched my very first football game today. How could I not?
For the first time since 1989, the Saskatchewan Rough Riders have won the Grey Cup. I should watch next year. I seem to be good luck.

What the hell is a Grey Cup? I'd want one in silver or gold or something other than grey.... it does nothing for my skin tone.
you have the super bowl. We have the grey cup.
I do not have the super bowl! You take that back!!
I don't wanna watch any more football! I don't wannnnnnnna! :(
Is the cup really grey? Can't they have a gold one?
you know - I was really disappointed to find out that they don't hand out a "bowl" after the Superbowl - how misleading.... (just kiddin')
Way to go Rough Riders!
Who wants a grey cup? I wouldn't drink out of a grey cup...
You are good luck, you should bring good luck to television shows so maybe the strike will end this week. I'm counting on you.
YOU WATCHED FOOTBALL??? I can't beleive it. Way to go Riders!!! We were all decked out in our green and white at our house, it wasn't a pretty game, but we were victorious!!!
WOO HOO RIDERS!!!!

Okay...I had to play catch up with all your blogs. Did anyone ever tell you that you talk to much? LMAO. Just playing. You crack me up!!
I'm with Sheila though on this one...what the hell is a grey cup? Can't you Canadians afford precious metals?
Love ya!
Yay Riders!!!
They Finally brought the Grey Cup home where it belongs.
I like Canadian football. I wish they covered it on ESPN like they did years ago.
Congratulations!
Watching your first football game would explain the Kansas City Chiefs tattoo.
You don't know any better.

For Ajooja:
TSN (our ESPN Canadian affilate) now has the contract for all CFL games. They will be covered in the US now.
For Everyone Else:
The Grey Cup is so named for Governor General Earl Grey whom donated the cup for the championship game in 1909 for amateur rugby football. It was adapted for profressional football in 1954. It's a Classic Icon of Canadian Sports.
Same as the Stanley Cup.

Tug - its not Blue's fault about the chief's tattoo... thats my fault.
Did he put the tea in it when he donated it? Because I like Earl Grey tea... They should call it the Super Earl Grey Tea Cup... then they could have it with an Orange Bowl and it would almost be a meal.
Yay! You're smart Marilyn!! I like that idea.
Sheila - Um...you could have BLAMED Blue - I'd have never known.
just sayin'.
Chiefs & all.
;-)
Tug - Oooh, I can't let her take a fall like that for me. I mean, it is the Chiefs. And, actually, my boyfriend is the Chiefs fan.
Oh Sheila, I'm so sorry.
my condolences.
heehee...
Thanks, Tug! I appreciate the sympathy.
Who are the Rough Riders and how did they win the Grey Cup?
I do not follow sports unless I am a participant.
But, I have always loved the name Saskatchewan.
