Hahaha, bastardization. The CFL rules have been pretty much the same for over 100 years. The Grey Cup is the second oldest pro sports trophy in North America behind the Stanley Cup. Not that one is better than the other, they are totally different, and although you may see the game itself as inferior there is no way that the NFL is the be all and end all of football.

Like anything in life, money dictates the size and importance of a league. Canada has such a small population that big TV deals to bump up the salaries just isnt going to happen. The CFL is a 100% gate driven league.

And although I still stand by my previous statements about Allen and his chances in Canton, the more I hear people disregarding his accomplishments the more I want to see him get in.
