    Bring 'em on. Will Alberta follow? Or will they hold out for Division I?

    Wow, I thought this would be a thread about scoring tickets to see Roberto Luongo and the Sedin twins. My bad.

    So that explains why UBC & Simon Fraser suck big time at CIS football. They don't teach the kids the correct game.

    No wonder they want to join NCAA. They can't beat anybody in the the Western Canadian universities. Take your pick: Golden Bears, Huskies, the Bisons.

    Hell, any team in the Atlantic Conference--including Mount Allison could beat those pussies from BC.

    From my days at the U of A, all I can remember is that a Golden Bear is more than a good suntan.

    Simon Fraser is still in the NAIA. Played in the NAIA softball tournament last spring, in fact.

    Also in the NAIA1: UBC and the University of Alberta.

    1That's the National Association of Ineligible Athletes.

    The other problem is that the players who go on to CJFL, especially Okanagan Sun and whatever, have to learn Canadian rules.

    But JC, why would you have Canadian high school kids play American rules football? I mean, it doesn't make any sense. Particularly for those who go on to play CIS ball.
