http://www.yardbarker.com/cfl Recent articles about CFL en-us Werder Bremen midfielder Aaron Hunt has not ruled out leaving the club when his contract expires in 2014 or even earlier. Bremen are struggling at the wrong end of the table and, for the third year in a row, look likely to miss out on a place in Europe next season. Should there not be any sign of an improvement in the remaining eight matches of the season, or next term, the former Germany international admitted he might have to consider requesting a transfer. "I have always stressed that I am happy with Werder and the club has a place in my heart, but it's not certain that I will stay here and end my career here," he said. "I have certain expectations and my future will be dependent on them." The 26-year-old has admitted his concern for the rest of the season after a return of just two points from their last five games left them closer to the relegation zone than the top six. "We have got to watch out that we don't fall any further," he told Kicker magazine.

Its in her bloodlines. Jackson is the daughter of the late King of Pop, Michael. Shes also a cheerleader at Buckley. When the Griffins won their first CIF championship in school history last Saturday, in a 54-46 over San Luis Obispo Mission Prep, Jackson was front and center cheering on the team to history. Jackson, who has over one million followers on Twitter, tweeted a picture taken of her by MaxPreps at the game with the caption lol this may just be the best picture ever. Like her father, she has shown an interest in music, tweeting pictures of herself playing the bass and the ukulele. Buckley is an independent K-12 school with an enrollment of 790 students. 319 of those students are in the Upper School or grades 9-12. The tuition and fees for students in grades 6-12 is just over of 36,000 a year.

A couple of days after Buckley, the exclusive private school she attends, earned its first ever California Interscholastic Federation Southern Section boys basketball team title, the lovely Paris posted a photo of herself on Twitter as a varsity cheerleader. The photo was apparently taken by a MaxPreps photographer and shows her with punk-style raven-black hair — a look we are not accustomed to seeing. Paris seems to be enjoying life in high school and tweeted: "lol this may be the best picture ever." lol this may just be the best picture ever twitter.com/ParisJackson/s… — Paris Jacksoη (@ParisJackson) March 4, 2013 Being the daughter of the famous King of Pop — or his tragic death — doesn't seem to Wed, 06 Mar 2013 07:50:00 -0500 http://network.yardbarker.com/cfl/article_external/paris_jackson_michaels_daughter_is_a_varsity_high_school_cheerleader/13065034 http://network.yardbarker.com/cfl/article_external/paris_jackson_michaels_daughter_is_a_varsity_high_school_cheerleader/13065034 Paris Jackson, Michael's daughter, is a varsity high school cheerleader http://www.yardbarker.com/cfl/articles/paris_jackson_michaels_daughter_is_a_varsity_high_school_cheerleader/13065034 http://www.yardbarker.com/images/yb_logo_square_grey.png Toronto will be hosting Sunday's CFL championship game, and Toronto Mayor Rob Ford appeared at a media event Tuesday at Nathan Phillips Square, which was turned into a football field as part of this week's Grey Cup festivities. At the event, Ford tried to show off his quarterback skills...or lack thereof, as the case turned out to be. Ford lost his footing on his first step back from the line of scrimmage and tumbled right to the ground. Fortunately, Ford appeared to be OK, aside from a bruised ego and some embarrassment he may have to endure as this video goes viral. The 100th CFL Grey Cup will be held Sunday at the Rogers Centre at 6PM between the Toronto Argonauts and Calgary Stampeders. Video via. H/T LAF.

Then he fired the coaches in Canada, now he is paying the American Girls while the Canadian Girls get nothing. Mortaza will stop at nothing to make it seem like he is taking over the world with this cheap imitation of football. He has to constantly find ways to pull the wool over the Canadians eyes. This way they think they have something that resembles football. As we know Mortaza suspended paying the women in the States some time ago. It seems like the guy is always promising to do great things for the women who sacrifice so much to play in his LFL. Mortaza makes all kinds of promises to the LFL players and part of that may be the women in the States getting paid in 2013. If you play in the LFL and you want to get paid it looks like you need to go to Canada and help Mitchell Mortaza pull the wool over the good people in Canada&rs...

Unfortunately, Williams was so busy showboating near the end of the run that he was caught from behind and was ruled down on the 1-yard line. Williams started backpedaling at around the 15-yard line and celebrated with a teammate at the 5-yard line, but in the meantime, Montreal linebacker Brian Ridgeway never stopped chasing Williams and tackled him before he reached the end zone. Williams did have 7 catches for 115 yards in Hamilton's 39-24 victory, but he should be completely embarrassed by this bonehead play. Let's hope he learned a lesson from this one. Video via LiveLeak.

However, Lambert's men suffered a second successive defeat when beaten 2-1 at home by Arsenal on Saturday and the 42-year-old former Celtic midfielder is under no illusions of the challenges ahead. Lambert, who has guided the club's swift rise from npower League One since August 2009, said: "I look at the fixture list coming up and I think, 'Oh no, we've got Manchester City in a fortnight,' but that is the difference in the Premier." Speaking at the Annual General Meeting of Norwich's shareholders, Lambert added: "Never in a million years did I think we would be in this position. "I remember when I first got the job the chairman said to me just get us in the top six. You do that and then he turns around and says I want you to win it. "And then when you win it he expects you to do something in the Championship, but that is the way football is. &qu Wed, 23 Nov 2011 13:29:37 -0500 http://network.yardbarker.com/cfl/article_external/lambert_therell_be_no_let_up/8286421 http://network.yardbarker.com/cfl/article_external/lambert_therell_be_no_let_up/8286421 Lambert: There'll be no let-up http://www.yardbarker.com/cfl/articles/lambert_therell_be_no_let_up/8286421 http://www.yardbarker.com/images/yb_logo_square_grey.png It's not often that we get to see a 108 yard punt occur in American football game but last month, CFL punter Chris Milo of the Saskatchewan Roughriders boomed a punt that went out of the endzone.
