Cfl
Oddly enough, I'm on a month-long hiatus to Toronto right now and went to my first CFL game last week. It was interesting, with a lot of good aspects the NFL could use - most notably a lot less standing around (20 sec play clock, if I remember right). Also, no downing the ball in the end zone - if you do, you get to keep it like in the NFL, but the kicking team gets a point. Sitting at the 55-yard line was cool too. Biggest problem in my mind was the three-down game, which takes running out of it.
I was surprised at how long it's been around - they've been playing for the Grey Cup for over 100 years now, so it predates the NFL in that respect.
Take Care,
Geno
