It's a fancy name they gave to the division of NCAA football that crowns their champion without the benefit of a playoff.

And something the University of Michigan will not be involved in this year. Sorta like the Hamilton Tiger-Cats situation this year.

I too call them the Maple Laughs.

But rest assured that when the TML win the Stanley Cup, it will be the biggest sports party that North America has ever seen.

Ah yes, the Cats. They're the closest CFL team to my house. Some day, JR, some day hopefully!

Always wondered why it wasn't the Maple 'Leaves' as in: Toronto leaves the playoffs before the SC Final each year.

Zuger is my nickname. Seriously! I'm European, and I have a weird last name (to some). Doing a provincial playoff game one day and the announcer came upon my name and couldn't make heads or tails of it, and ended up with "Zuger". :D

There's talk some years that Hamilton wants an NHL team. Especially since the co-CEO of Research in Motion was into purchasing a team.

"Why won't Hamilton ever get an NHL team?"

"Because then Toronto would want one too!"

Reminds me of the old Ottawa Senators joke from their first few years in the league.

"What is the difference between the Ottaw Senators and a cigarette vending machine?"

"The vending machine has Player's."

Even better....a joke told in Western Canada every May or so....

"Did you hear about the huge fire at the golf course today? There were Flames everywhere."

It's Fox's tag for all the big bowl games after New Year's Day as a build up to the championship game.
