Hmm – forget about internationalizing the NFL to London, the Buffalo Bills might be taking their game to Canada, eh? – at least only one game to start:
The CFL’s new commissioner thinks the NFL wants a team in Toronto, and he wants a piece of the action. Not sure what makes Mark Cohon think the NFL will be eager to align with the CFL.
I think the NFL is interested in expanding into Canada, but it would rather wait a couple of seasons and see what type of support Bills games will draw in Toronto.
The league will only reach out to the CFL if it’s deemed absolutely necessary.
What I want to know is – if the NFL expands to at least one Canadian town, will we ever see cross-league games – using CFL rules – like we do in basketball? For all the North American glory? Probably not. Probably have to settle for a flag football game between the Bills and the Argonauts. But I would like to see someone challenge the NCAA as the NFL’s official feeder league.
Anyways, congratulations to the Saskatchewan Roughriders for winning the 2007 CFL Grey Cup (the 95th edition) 23-19 over their Labour Day and Banjo Bowl opponents the Winnepeg Blue Bombers. I’m sure the MVP and the MVC (Most Valuable Canadian) will be flush with endorsement offers soon.
