Shallower endzones is something that casual viewers will not even notice, but the off centre field will definitely be noticed to the detriment of the image of the league.
Teams would just have to game plan for the uniqueness of BMO field, just as teams in other major sports leagues (e.g. MLB) often must. In fact, I think the smaller, more challenging endzones at BMO would add some spice and variety for veteran fans watching games played at BMO Field.

can't disagree more. shallower endzones would be much worse than an off centre field.
from the TV you won't even be able to tell if hte field is off centre. the shorter endzones and different field dimensions would make a mockery of the game. this isn't baseball where field dimensions can and should be played with
