I'm surprised any U.S. provider would bother carrying CFL games. It's not even all that popular in Canada anymore. Used to be huge but now; not so much. The only exception to that is Saskatchewan Rough Riders. It's a religion in Saskatchewan!! They are fanatics big time and fill their stadium every game. Mind you, if you ever went to Saskatchewan, you'd understand why. Diddly-squat else to see or do there! The CFL basically gets all the players that NFL teams cut from their rosters plus a few home grown ones for Canadian content. Their play tends to be a little more daring because their talent level is often questionable plus, with 3 downs instead of 4, there's A LOT more passing which tends to make things interesting. Bigger field too. Hoping there will be some good battles during the playoffs which start next weekend.

Interesting stuff. I've heard of the "temperance" movement but wasn't aware there was two layers to it. I thought it was no alcohol of any nature what so ever. I wonder if there are any documents around in archives that would have the signatures of any of these people on them? If you could find those, you could see if they used a "T" after their name.

First I have ever heard of this practice so, it would be lost on me if I saw a T after your name but, I could just be out of the loop on this?

TGIF fellow quitters!! NOPE! Having too much fun playing Frizbee to smoke!!

I have never been able to really get into NFL other than playoff games. I don't like the Superbowl just because it's way over-hyped and commercialized. Usually watch some of it but find the playoff games are usually more entertaining. I will be watching the CFL (Canadian Football League) playoffs that start next week. I know nobody cares about those but the final game - Grey Cup - is usually rock 'em, sock 'em and down to the last few seconds. Usually very entertaining TV when the weather outside is uninviting and the logs are on the open hearth fire!

Yes, I noticed you had a nice background on your profile. I meant to try that to see how it worked out. Not sure about anyone else but I don't get any Emoticons when I click on that - not that I look for them often but ..... just sayin'. Maybe it'll be fixed when the changeover is complete?

Yeah, kind of a long TV Sports drought for me now. I don't watch too many regular season games in any sport so not much coming up any time soon in the way of playoffs. I love watching the winter Olympics which are coming around in Feb. 2018 but, being in South Korea, the time difference for "live" stuff won't be favorable. As Boo's friend would say, "they just start those games way too late for me down there"!!

Lots of genuine people here that would like nothing better than help you newbie quitters along whether it's your 1st time or 10th time. We know the struggle and, we know the rewards of doing all the hard work and staying with it!

Glad to see you here Lisa :)

Keep focused T2B and try to focus on the benefits you'll be seeing (better sniffer, better taste buds, clothes don't smell of smoke, saved money etc.). They are small things but it's important to keep a positive focus as best you can despite all the external stuff going on that you can't control. This thing (quitting smoking) you CAN control. It's completely in your hands to make it happen. Come here as often as you like and unload whatever baggage you like. We're here to help even if that's just to let you blow off steam or just simply dump some emotional baggage off for a bit :) We KNOW it's difficult. We KNOW it's unpleasant at times. That's why we're eager to lend support :) You CAN do this!

NOPE!
