CFL in Ottawa can wait though since CFL wants to put a team in Ottawa  |
Thing is this concept is totally for a Soccer field not a Football field, the design is nice but lack of effort to include a 150yard field sucks. If the team of guys who are representing the conditional CFL Franchise could hook up with Melnyk im sure there could be a plan. Could work out with both future and more realistic CFL then MLS so why not support the more approachable idea. Get the ball rolling and things moving, lets pick up the pace the CFL is not going to get any bigger or popular when its lacking teams. Even if there has been the same locations since the CFL was formed. Halifax, Saskatoon, Quebec, and yeah Ottawa all good places.
