Nothing wrong with being a fan of CFL or WHL if you realize its place.

Have WHL season tickets due to living in a small town that doesn't have a NHL team. If you keep it in perspective and see it for what it is (minor or junior league) thats one thing.

It's when CFL fans (read: Riders fans) treat the Grey Cup as somehow being as important as the Stanley Cup, or spend hundreds of bucks on merchandise, or pack flags with them to other countries that it becomes pathetic.

When you realize its a poorly run 8-team minor league of castoffs who all work 2nd jobs during the week and treat it accordingly in terms of importance then that's fine.

You won't see me around Kelowna wearing Rockets jerseys, wearing various Okanagan fruits on my head and following the team to Calgary in order to heckle Hitmen fans, get wasted, attack police officers and get kicked out of the Dome.

Which brings this entire post back full circle and on topic:

Saskatchewan is no good, and neither are their "sports" fans.
