Even though Canadians are supposedly hockey fans, I'm married to an American ex-pat and it's football in this house. Thank goodness!! Sundays are great, because football is on all day and I can sew in between running to watch the replays (and then staying 'cause I'm hooked). My DH is a Brett Favre fan. I'm less faithful.
I've been to CFL and NHL games and football wins hands down every time. Live hockey is weird because they skate around aimlessly every time there's a commercial on TV. Football just plays on and lets the TV work around it.
