He’s got talent. He was riveting to watch in college. I hope he succeeds.

What is the over/under on when he gets dismissed from this league?

It's football in June/July played in a stadium on grass.

Fun to watch especially if you're already burning out on baseball.

Manziel's CFL contract: $122k base, $10k sign bonus, $18k housing stipend, $10k if active 6 games, $10k for 10 games active. $10k for 14 games active. Another $120k if plays half of snaps. March 1 $75k offseason bonus. 2018 $202k base w/same incentives

On the other hand, it's NOT the Cleveland Browns...

These are the different rules, Johnny, put that cheerleader down and listen ...

(a) three downs instead of four.

(b) field is ten yards longer.

(c) you can score a single point with a punt or field goal that is not returned out of the end zone

(d) you have to say “sorry” if anyone gets hurt

(e) nobody over 300 pounds

(f) we keep playing late season games until polar bears have eaten the last man on the field.

(g) sorry.

Refreshingly simple uniforms. Do the job without looking like strippers.

I envy a country where ‘diversity’ means an Asian chick on the cheerleader squad.

None of the pre-season will make the ESPN broadcast schedule.

Most of the games you’ll have to stream through the ESPN+ app.
