On to the CFL...for the 37 year old receiver...

the Toronto Argonauts....

must need to pay some of that 100,000 to his kids...

I wonder if he's in Canada...if he'll have to serve his 20 days in the can...

Mezro...another washed up fuck looking for a quick buck...

I'm still trying to figure it out...

going to Canada certainly isn't a SMART way to make a buck...

lucky to make 50 grand...especially on their fucking practice squad...lmfao...

Can you make millions in the CFL? If anyone has I assume it was probably Doug Flutie.

Yeah...their stars make decent coin...but I'd have to imagine with their league facing extinction every year (I think they have NFL money pumping into now), I can't imagine the average joes make anything...

well...compared to us a ton...but other than that...nada...

Flutie made a boatload in Canada...but he was THE star of the league...

I read or saw on tv, that the NFL was going to make the CFL another minor league or something? Was I dreamiing this? Because the NFL Europe is a money pit. But then I read that the NFL signed some agreement with Germany to add more football teams.

This shit gets confusing sometimes.

Yeah...there was talk that since the NFL is supplying the CFL with cash...that they would incorporate the CFL into it's ever growing minor league system...

the NFL Europe is a money pit in a sense...since they don't make any money...

but I think that loss is offset by the few teams in that league that make money...

as well as the quality of player that the NFL is given back...it isn't paying off in the wallet per se...but it is giving some players their shot...

I would like to see how many 2nd stringers that give the NFL champs their depth have been successful NFL Europe players...

I would love to see the CFL looked upon as NFL Canada...

and have NFL Europe as well...

but the CFL was being looked at as an entity that would be used similarly to the MLB minor league system...where NFL teams would send player to the great white north...and be able to call them on a weekly basis...

don't know where that stands now...but it was seriously talked about last year after the bowl...at the first session of NFL meetings...
