About Kyle »

"Hello Canada, and hockey fans in the United States and Newfoundland"
- Foster Hewitt

Anyways, I am a huge hockey fan. Born and raised in a small town on the lake shore of Lake Huron. Which is in Ontario, Canada. Big fan of the Leafs, but once Minnesota got a crack at a new franchise, I jumped on board, and never looked back. Sure I love my Leafs, but the Wild are my team, and always will be. Another team I am very fond of, is the Los Angeles Kings. I am a huge Gretzky fan and of the "Slovenian Sniper": Anze Kopitar.

I am also a huge sucker for the Olympics. I glue myself in front of the television and watch non-stop. I don't care if the Olympics are winter or summer, both have pros and cons. I am looking forward for the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver, because for the first time in my life, the Olympics are on my home soil. So,
GO CANADA GO!

For the past year I got into the NFL. Buffalo, and Baltimore are the two teams I cheer for. Buffalo because they are close and always on T.V. and Baltimore because defense wins football games.

Another great league I follow is the CFL. I cheer for the Edmonton Eskimos and Toronto Argonauts. I just find the CFL really entertaining, and usually good games.

Not really into the MLB and NBA as much, two boring sports for me. Sure I will go and watch my local Jays play once or twice a year, but nothing to special.

I've been following F1 for the past 4 years or so. My uncle got me into the sport, and I have followed it ever since. I cheer for Button which sucks...for now. Also a fan of Robert Kubica, and Raikkonen.

Kyle,
I've heard rumors in the wind that the CFL could perhaps return to the U.S. Is this a good idea? Read my latest article to find out.

All that you'd have to do is pretty much keep tabs on the community, write up reports, and encourage fellow Eskimos and CFL writers by editing, commenting, and trying to seek out those new Eskimos writers on BR. You can update the community with the bulletin board on the Eskies page and besides that it's a pretty sweet, easy job.

Hey Kyle. Let me know if you're interested in being either an Argos or Eskies community leader on BR here.

Hey Kyle! I'm Matt Eichel, one of the community leaders for the Canadian Football League on BR. I saw that you are an Edmonton Eskimos fan and Toronto Argonaut fan. With the CFL season over, we're looking for the CFL section to grow for the upcoming 2009 season. It'd be awesome if you could cover some CFL issues coming into the season and during the season. We are also looking for both Argo and Eskie community leaders in the CFL community.

Good stuff on the Kings. They're going to be a good team coming up. Hopefully Bernier gets up and gets the #1 job, that's why they've got him. Keep up the good stuff!

Me too, I guess. Its a love/ hate relationship, and I'm on the "hate" phase right now. Did you see my status on facebook, that pretty much tells the story right there.

Yeah. I am a die-hard Leafs fan, but I have Centre Ice, so when it comes to watching a late game, it's usually San Jose, Calgary, or LA

LA is such an exciting young team. Their top six has so much talent. When they finally turn that corner to contend, man, they are going to be something to watch for sure.


Hopefully I can say the same about my Leafs someday too
