A Beautiful Night for Football - The Series

It's football season again. Canadian football that is.

I don't write about sports much anymore. Not because I don't love sports, but because it's not always easy to find inspiration in an era where more often than not, money is what drives the spirit - not the love of the game.

There are some things that are very dear to me however, and Canadian football is one of them. Don't get me wrong, I love the NFL too, but if it came time to choose, I would choose the only professional sport that we can still call Canadian. The CFL.

After the Hamilton Tiger-Cat season opener, I was inspired to write a story. With the threat of the NFL coming to Canada, I suddenly felt the urge to do my part to save this team - this league.

Part one of the series, A Beautiful Night for Football, can be found on my Facebook page. (see the link at the bottom of this blog) Part two, A Beautiful Night for Football - In Toronto, has just been released as well.

Part 3, A Beautiful Night for Football - The Next Generation, will be out next week; . Part 3 will be special.
