I'm dead set against this. This would be simply awful. You shouldn't mess with the big prize.

I'd be fine if the Grey Cup name stayed so if it was like The Grey Cup presented by AT&T or something thats cool whatever helps the league become more successful is good. I really hope we will be seeing another team out in the East soon, the more teams the better.

I dont follow CFL at all but i actually thinks its a good idea. I have no idea what their financial standpoint is but im guessing they dont make much so this should be a good way for them to make money...It's most likely gonna stay the Grey Cup probably be like "Motorola's Grey Cup"

Just as long as they don't sell it to EA.

This isn't such a bad idea. The CFL has made a comeback in a lot of ways in Canada. The league is healthy for the first time since Jake Gaudaur was Commisioner. I have faith in Tom Wright he's done a lot of positive things for the CFL. Almost anyone would've paniced with the problems with Toronto and Hamilton in '03 but he stayed the course and got some very good ownership in place.

BTW we should see an atlantic Canada team by '08 or '09 at the latest. The league has scheduled a preseason game in Halifax between the Argos and Ti-Cats.
