...albeit CFL. Ottowa @ Edmonton. 11-7 Edmonton at the moment. Pretty good action, but still trying to understand that 1 point scoring system. So used 5o that only being an extra point in America's verdion of the sport.

The "Rouge" point is the easiest thing to learn in Canadian football. Simply, when a team punts into the endzone (which is 25 yards deep north of the border) the receiving team MUST return the ball & get it out of the endzone or the kicking team is awarded the Rouge or single point.

Ah, so that explains the 0-1 score I saw when I flipped by last night. Thought it was a soccer score.
