To foster better international relations, I feel that the CFL and NFL should get together and play an ultimate border-battle footbal game in like February after the super bowl and the grey cup are done. I think this would rock. Just a thought.
Argos / Titans? That hasn't happened since the Oddessey!!!! A battle of truly epic proportions!!
When the NFL invested in the CFL with a cash infusion in the mid 90's this was actually part of the deal. NFL Europe would have been involved also IIRC. But, nothing ever came of it.
I like the CFL and all but I think the Super Bowl Champ would just toy with the Grey Cup Champ.

Unfortunately I think you're right.
Still, the Grey Cup is the best of the two. The Super Bowl is too corporate and bloated, and the game rarely measures up to the hype. The Grey Cup is a great big party, and usually the games are close, compelling and exciting! Go CFL!!

Sunday, November 21... probably sometime in the evening, maybe 5 or 6 pm eastern time.
Hope the Toronto Argos are there... but boy Montreal is tough. Still I think the Argos are due. AAARRRRGOOOOOS!!!!
Grey Cup is usually a better game, but the Superbowl is the biggest sporting event of the year, although, this year, it'll be pretty hard to top the World Series...
it says here that the riders are gonna win the cup
For sure. GO GREEN! The league better keep a close eye on those cheating B.C. officials.
I would love to see the NFL champ play their CFL counterpart. It would denomstrate for all how scrub the players are in the CFL compared to the NFL. I would bet the CFL team would not be able to stop even one of the NFL team's drive.
I havent watched one part of a super bowl in the past 8 years. COuld really care less about it. it is so commericalized to the point it is not even football anymore.
The Grey Cup on the other hand, different story, booked the day off work and party all night long. Drink some great canadian beer from Unibroue and watch the game

What rules are they playing CFL or NFL? if they played CFL the CFL team could win for sure.
Whatever rules and the NFL kills them. You are trying to tell me some DB in the CFL can cover a Moss or Harrison with a Peyton Manning throwing. There is not a chance. Give an NFL QB a 20 yard endzone and it just makes matters worse for the CFL team.
I disagree, that is like saying an NHL team will beat an AHL team every night, that just wouldn't happen. There are lots of CFL rules that the NFL would have trouble adjusting to.
