Â Yeah Maple Syrup is huge...I had no idea until I watched a Netflix Documentary called "The Maple Syrup Mafia" that Quebec controls 70+% of the world's Maple Syrup production. Guess that's why the Maple Leaf is on their flag and they have a hockey team named after it. Edited February 14, 2023 by Big Turk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "American" version had a round ball, you couldn't pick the ball up, and had 25-man teams.  Here's how the forward pass came into American Football (it was to help prevent deaths which might result in the game being outlawed. It evolved over time):  https://www.history.com/news/forward-pass-football-invented-origins  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
