Let's not forget with all these Canadian QBs in the draft and Rourke and Ford already being starters, its the Age of the Canadian Armed Forces, who will be throwing the the Canadian receivers who make up the Canadian Air Force.

How long have you been a black qb?

If you were a tree, what tree would you be? 

Both actual Super Bowl Media Day questions.....

Sept 5, 1983: 'That little monkey gets loose, doesn't he?' Howard Cosell causes controversy by calling black wide receiver Alvin Garrett a 'little monkey'.

Shockingly low amount of CFL draft prospects who got NFL UDFA deals.  I think only 2 of the DL along with the guys who were drafted.  Lots of rookie mini-camp invites but those don't often lead to main camp spots.  For a lot of those guys the best path to a real NFL shot will be playing in the CFL.  Good news for the CFL.

And for the draft, it's pretty wide-open.  There's only a handful of guys that are unlikely to be available for CFL camps.

Good, might cause some U-Sports players to check back in with reality and take their CFL opportunity more seriously.  You want to make a living playing football or go get a job ******?

I have no problems with Canadian kids getting their shots with the NFL. Only some don't treat the CFL with enough respect. At least the Canadians who don't bother to go to the CFL Combine because they feel it's beneath them still have a Plan B available to them in the CFL if things don't work out for their NFL dreams. Lots of free agent American players in the same boat know it's over if they don't make an NFL squad. Canadians get a second chance.

Kurtis Rourke got drafted by the 49ers. If he impresses Shanahan & works hard, the kid is in a pretty good spot being coached by a coach like him. He landed in a really good spot with a good team.
