What can CFL players do that NFL players can't? Score 129-yard touchdowns.
In a game one Canadian sports writer said may be the most bizarre CFL game ever played, Toronto Argonauts kick returner Dominique Dorsey scored a 129-yard touchdown last night.
For you American fans, that's possible because the CFL field is 110 yards from goal line to goal line, and the end zones are 20 yards deep. If you're wondering what a 129-yard touchdown looks like, I don't have a video of Dorsey's run, but here's another CFL 129-yard touchdown:
That was Toronto's Bashir Levingston. He and Dorsey now share the record for the longest touchdown in professional football history. Let's see Devin Hester top that.

The even crazier part of the game was that during Dorsey's run Damon Duvall (the Als kicker) got into a fight with one of the Argos and got kicked out of the game. Montreal's backup QB Marcus Brady had to punt a couple times and the winning FG was made by the WR Ben Cahoon.

Watching the video, one question comes to mind: why was the return man lined up so far off to the side? (Which turned out to be the perfect place, of course.) Was there a really strong wind blowing that direction, or was that kicker so incredibly horrible that they knew not to bother lining up in front of the goal posts, and knew that twenty yards off to the side would be the spot? It was a 52-ish yard kick from the right that missed by 20 or so yards to the left - and they had a guy exactly in place! The mind boggles.
