i dont care about them....i wish they would take out the argo's off CFL and make an NFL team....CFL players are mostly 3rd or 4th stringers in the NFL, doesnt that bother you....i mean dave dickinson a CFL star didnt even make an NFL team...and when some of these young CFL guys develop and become good you know damn well they're gonna choose the NFL over the CFL....and theres like 8 teams in the CFL....like what the hell....i hate the CFL

MadFishX is right, Toronto will never have an NFL team. If they do ever get one it will fold once the novelty wears off. The only way to get it to work would be to have the games inside the ACC and print "Maple Leafs" on the tickets to trick our fickle fan base into going.

I might be biased a bit because I am a lifelong CFL fan with season tickets to the pitiful Hamilton Tiger-Cats. But I've been to both NFL and CFL games and while the NFL players are much bigger and more talented, the opened up rules and Canadian atmosphere make for a better time at the CFL games. Buffalo Bills games that I have attended just ended up being a big headache.

I don't understand what the big fascination with the NFL is here in Southern Ontario is, I'm sure if you asked a Montrealer if they would like an NFL team in their city you'd get a swift kick to the eye. They know how to enjoy our great game out there. Maybe Toronto should just stop wishing it were New York.

I think your wrong about an NFL team folding, there would be a huge fan base, especially with today's generation, cuz we've grown up with the NFL.....

Yea, I agree with Jehuisthere, Torontonians have a society that has been greatly influenced by American culture more than any other Canadian society in the nation...

With that being said, I think that an NFL franchise would succeed north of the boarder but a franchise in Toronto will only come to fruition if they have a management team with A LOT of money...
