Tomorrow the 2-1 Alouettes roll into town to take on the 3-0 Roughriders in a battle of division leaders and the CFL's two most potent offenses. For the 10th straight time at Mosaic Stadium, the game will be played in front of a sold-out crowd. Darian Durant will once again get the start for the   more...

Six-foot-two inch, 225 pound RB Jesse Lumsden put up the same combine numbers as Ronnie Brown in 2005. Brown went second overall...Lumsden did not. Three years later, however, Lumsden is taking the CFL by storm, leading the league in rushing and average 7.5 yards per carry.

The CFL season is upon us -- frequent kicking, single points for missed field goals and ties, you bet! (We've got the NCAA-style overtime shootout, but it ends after two possessions per team, so it happens.) As one of Epic Carnival's Canadian bureau, duty calls to spend the Independence Day weekend   more...

Riders 34 - Eskimos 13Well it appears both the Riders and Eskimos picked up right where they left off last season… the Riders playing like champions and the Eskimos … well being the Eskimos. While we didn't have the best start, we did manage to keep it close in the first half and then make halftime   more...

The 2008 CFL season is upon us. Gone are the long offseason months, gone are the grueling training camps, gone are the meaningless preseason games, and gone are Hamilton's chances of winning the cup. Okay maybe that last one was a bit premature given that they won't be mathematically eliminated   more...

Eskimos 37 - Riders 7What can you say about Thursday's game that hasn't already been said about Britney Spears? It was painful to listen to and involved a variety of people repeatedly scoring with very little effort. Now, although I don't like seeing a game this lopsided, you do have to put it in   more...

Sure the CFL is littered with guys you've never heard of and French Canadians with names neither of us could pronounce properly, but it's also got some names you might remember and a couple you should get to learning now too.

Riders 33 - Hamilton 28I've always said that being a Rider fan would be the death of me and this Saturday was further evidence to that theory. I love an exciting back and forth CFL game that goes down to the wire as much as the next guy but they are not easy on the old ticker. That's two in row   more...

Riders 26 - Lions 16Well, the good news is that we won. And what a win at that! If you would have told me before the game that we would lose our starting QB and suffer 2 broken legs all before half-time and only manage 196 total yards in the game, I would have skipped watching the game and gone   more...

Now I know there are a lot of you out there that think the Canadian Football League is just a league for the players that can't make an NFL squad. And while that may be true, the CFL is just as entertaining in my opinion. The rules provide a better flow for the game and many more big plays than   more...

Found this on Deadspin and couldn't really believe that this was news, I mean it is the CFL. Then I read the article and found this line: "Stegall, a 13-year veteran, broke the record he shared with legendary running backs George Reed and Mike Pringle, a mark that he had been chasing for three   more...
