My opinion on CFL 2.0. We are all here, I would assume because we think that the CFL is the most exciting brand of football right? Why would we not want for people in Mexico, Austria, German, France, Finland, ect, to think CFL when they think football. Share what we love with millions more people seems like a no brainer.

Eerie.. Brad Marchand is playing in his 666th NHL career game tonight. He has 666 career penalty minutes... and he’s playing against the Devils

I could definitely see how the poaching thing was an issue back then. But if my memory isn't failing me (which it frequently does), there were far more shows going on at that time so a guy could be exclusive to one promotion and get a decent amount of work.

I get the skepticism about it from the the bits and piece of info that the media have put out. I sat and listened to him talk about this for hour on Friday it’s not as crazy as people make it out to be.

These leagues are looking for a partner to grow the game. The commissioner said on Friday night that when he started talking to these leagues that they were really surprised that he asked them how the CFL could help them grow and develop. The NFL had dictated what the relationship was going to be with them to benefit of only the NFL.

He is an RFA.

When pcw started up (as well as a few other promotions), there was a lot of poaching of workers going on. It sucked as a fan because the best guys were split between different promotions so you never truly saw the best of what the local scene could offer as the different promotions would want exclusivity. Its been really good lately between cwe and pcw but if WPW comes in and starts rocking the boat (especially since they dont really have a roster of their own), I could see how it might become an issue.

Which rules are you referring to? Te rules that make the Canadian game what it is? Do you actually think that those would ever be changed because Mexico or Germany doesn't like/understand them? Personally, if that's what you're referring to, it's little more than fear mongering because if the rules got changed then the CFL would no longer be the CFL. Not going to happen.
