The 2012-2013 CFL season marks the 100th appearance of the Grey cup. It should be noted however, that fans should not expect a repeat of anything in recent history. This season represents a wide array of changes occurring in most organizations this season. Most notably however, is the hiring of new head coaches for 3 of the 8 CFL teams. The BC Lions, Saskatchewan Roughriders and the Toronto Argonauts have all decided that going forward; coaching changes were in need. The position of head coach in the CFL is a performance-based opportunity, and thus new coaches need to be especially ready for the 2012 season.

As fans of the CFL, it is our job to support our favourite teams week-in and week-out. We show up to games clad in the home-team threads. We roar and scream when our teams are doing well. We support and encourage when our teams aren’t doing so well. The job of a fan is seldom appreciated in many professional sports; the CFL seems to be different.

BRIDGETOWN, Barbados — Kensington Oval is a superb, modern sports facility in most respects, but it was built for cricket, the consuming passion of Barbados. The 2007 World Cup of cricket was held here — one of the proudest moments in the history of the Caribbean island nation of 285,000 — and it would seem to be a far-fetched notion that it could be used as a showpiece for anything else, especially the Canadian Football League.

As fans of football, there is nothing like sitting down on a Sunday afternoon and enjoying 3 hours of exciting spectacle. When asking the average fan what differences exist between Canadian and American football, most acknowledge that there are differences, but what might they be? Aside from corporate and organizational size, there are key differences that exist between Canadian and American leagues that a fan might be interested in knowing before setting down the remote.

As fans of the Canadian Football League, we know that every season begins with assessing what strengths and weaknesses each team possesses. For coaches this means evaluating contracts, addressing scouting reports and doing cost-analyses based on salary cap restrictions.

Congratulations to Hamilton Tiger Cat Kevin Glenn as being selected the 2011 Tom Pate Memorial Award Winner.

These All Star Nominations are regarded as one of the most prestigious awards as they are voted on by peers.

One of the reasons why the Canadian Football League is so endearing to many Canadians is the simple fact that they can easily relate to the players they watch on Friday Night Football each week.
