So many of us love watching the Vikings Bears or Packers but also love our Bombers or some here are Sasky transplants love their Riders but also the Titans or Raiders and we go on Labour day/Banjo bowl road trips but also road trips to see the Vikings at US bank or go see the Pack at Lambeau. CFL should be emulating college football the fan experience of it and not try to be NFL lite which never turns out well.

You are so right Thurmas. I do not have a favourite NFL/NCAA team but I enjoy watching good games in all leagues (including USports). The Canadian NFL only fans are missing out and that's their loss.
