Okay poolies, this is the new home of the Super-Happy-Fun CFL pool! Welcome one and all.
This site is where I'll be posting the weekly stats as well as insightful and entertaining comments regarding the pool in general. As the new (temporary) leader of this pool I will do my utmost to encourage banter and witticisms from all memebrs of the Pool. Last season saw a new low (or high, whichever way you look at it) in public trash-talking and hopefully this season will be no different. As El Presidente my first order of business will be to right a certain wrong from last season. After trumpeting the new "trash-talking award" at the onset of last season our humble Czar slapped us all in the face by refusing to hand it out! So, regrettably late, I present the award to our own Runny Pants Koop! Congratulations Koopie!
Hopefully everyone will get the emails sent out this morning and as I said, if the number of people who want in is increased by cancelling week one, so be it.
Go Bombers!
El Presidente

What a time to be alive, my fellow poolies! The Czar's reign of terror is over! Apparently all of his rubbing and tugging has tuckered the poor guy out to the point where he can't properly govern our pool. I say, good riddance!
That having been said, I must admit to being somewhat cautious of this new regime. (I smell the smelly smell of El Duque at work here, behind the scenes.) Time will tell if the scandals and rumours of point rigging that dogged the Czar, Vice Czar and the whole Czar family will find a new home in the new era of the so-called El Presidente.
I can say without reservation that El Presidente has made the proper first move of righting the gross injustice that was perpetrated against me by the previous regime - that being the refusal to appoint a winner of the trash talking award last year. So, El Presidente, I salute you for correcting this situation so promptly. But wasn't I supposed to get some trophy or some money or something? Can you look into that? No doubt the Czar skipped town with the award... those scented oils don't pay for themselves!
In conclusion, I look forward to another year of the Koop dominating the standings and the air-waves and the Toronto Argonauts (2004 Grey Cup Champions/2005 Team of Destiny) dominating the CFL.
All hail the Koop; all the hail the Argos!
Signed,
The Koop.
Koopie koopie koopie....
Whatever will we do with you?
Firstly, congratulations on your rightly-deserved 2004 Trash Talker title. Lots of mouths started blowing early on but when the chips were down and the money was on the line you threw the haymakers that left the entire field down for the count. Unfortunately for you those weak sports metaphors are all you're getting in the way of a prize. When I first moved into the ex-Czar's mansion here in CFLand I have to admit, I expected better. Now I know how the US Marines felt when they first entered Casa de Saddam! I wouldn't doubt if we find our deposed ruler hiding in a hole someday either. He left us all with nothing more than a smile, a wave, and a plethora of broken dreams. Damn you Czar!
As for the allusion (or rather illusion) of me being a puppet of El Duque? Koopie...even I can't slip that far!
As of right now it looks like week one's picks will be voided. Three more poolies have signed up after the Wednesday night kickoff and we're expexting a few more. Another omnipotent email from yours truly will hasten this news.
El Presidente
