Good players to numerous to list but Warren Moon was in the CFL before the NFL And many so called big name NFL'ers came to the CFL and shit the bed. Repeatedly.

Honestly I'd say many games over the course of the season are better than the swill the NFL serves up. On Friday night Lucky Whitehead returned the opening kick-off for a 104 yard touchdown. He could have kept running and never been caught. Next possession our PR ran back the punt 84 yards to the opposition 4. 1 play later, TD. One offensive play and we were up 14-0

My biggest complaints: as an American, we only get to watch 1 game a week on average. If that game is a blowout, were screwed. I swear as God as my witness, it seems like 95% of every game is a squash. And more importantly, the QBs in the CFL are by and large horrible!! The top QBs in college football are light years better than the QBs in Canada.

I think the 18 game thing will happen. One criticism of the NFL is the 4-game preseason. How easy would it be to chop the preseason down to two games and tack on two games to the regular season?

It will also pay respect to season and all-time record holders since they went to the 16 game season 40 years ago.I think the 18 game thing will happen. It's obviously not going to happen, just sayin' though.

I personally don't want to see it just because I'm so used to the 16-game schedule, plus the added games will likely mean more player injuries or meaningless games. If it happens, though, I guess I'll get used to it.

I think the other thing is if you extend the season by two more weeks and have the Super Bowl later you run into "Washington's Birthday' and it sure would be cool to have the Super Bowl on Sunday and everyone off from the work the next day

I suspect that a number of season records and career records will fall in the upcoming years not because today's players are better than the former record holders but because they played two additional games each season throughout their careers.
