Rewriting CFL history!

[JohnnyOnTheSpot]

With 9 teams and 18 games there is still no way to do a balanced and fair schedule.  You would play 6 teams twice and two teams 3 times. Someone could play Calgary three times and someone else Montreal three times using this year as an example. 

Plenty of times the two best teams met in the west final.  It's still good football. The Grey Cup is about more than just football, it's a national event.  If we lose that it is just another football game.

Nothing in life is fair.  Fairness is a myth perpetrated by the same people who hand out participation ribbons

Are you recommending three 3-team divisions?  Play outside div 2 and in div 3 times?

BC, Cgy, Edm - West Division

Sask, Wpg, Ham - New Stadiums Division

Tor, Ott, Mtl - Refurbished Stadiums Division
