Like any other football league, it will pass.

It will probably run to set up the pass.

It's funny because removing special teams probably makes the chances that these guys will be able to get picked up WAY lower since so many marginal picks are taken in part for special teams

I think the more tangible affect on the CFL might be the expansion of NFL practice rosters .. granted .. the impact is not huge but it further shrinks the pool of potential cuts ..

Exactly. Much more significant than a new league.

1,000 per week? Yeah I'm not too worried about this league.
