Grey Cup fever baby!!

GREY CUP THIS SUNDAY!!!! I have tickets and they are real good seats as well. I am yet still to decide who I will invite to the game this Sunday because I don't know that many people who like Football at all actually.

It will be the Montreal Alouettes against Calgary's home team Stampeders. Over the years, the Alouettes have been working hard to regain the Grey cup for its home team. In 2002, they won the cup and Montreal went into a fury of happiness. I also remember that there was lots of trouble from our fans and the opposing teams outside the stadium. There was somewhat a riot outside...I know that it does not make much sense to have a riot over a sport, but what can you do about that when people are too happy or have no common sense.

I hope that this year will be a different scenario from our fans and I hope that our home team will win the Grey cup as they have been working hard to be there this Sunday.

Did you know that Canadian football teams are not payed as well as our southern neighbours! I remember that some of the Alouettes players came to my high school...some 10 years. A student asked how much they were paid and they told us not much. Actually, they make about $45000-50000 per year. Now if you compare that to an American team...were talking about at least a 2 million dollar difference for each player. I know for a fact that they play more for the love of the sport than for money. I guess some players are hoping to get foot into the NFL, but that is just helpful wishing and a dream.

Lets see who will win: the Alouettes or the Stampeders!
