Argos owners interested in NFL team
Moderator: Team Captains
i can't belive that the new cfl commish wants to bring nfl to TO
That is crazy
I can't see this happening, woulden't the NFL want to keep the Francize in the States?
I mean what player in the NFL is going to want to play in canada.
They did not want to play in vancouver in the NBA

I just hope this doesn't kill the CFL. I don't want to sacrifice 8 teams and a great league just so that Toronto can have another team the rest of the country hates.
backtracking now...

by Ackles shooting his mouth off about the NFL killing the CFL, that should finish off any chance Vancouver will win that 4 city bid to get that NFL regular season game here next year.
All Ackles had to do was not say anything until after the NFL made its final decision. But no he just couldn't resist telling the world.
well mabey they should give the game to Edmonton after all. They're the only city that can draw 51,000 for a regular season game.
You'd never hear any official from Edmonton making the comments Ackles did. In Edmonton you just don't talk like that

Thank you Mr. Ackles for speaking the truth. Canada doesn't need the NFL. We have a far superior game here and the league is finally doing well so leave the NFL and it's boring game to south of the border. We don't want it here!!! :x
Still in Riderville, hating the Riders!
