Ten is needed, twelve is probably where they should be.

Getting tired of playing against same team four times in 18 games schedule

You can never count the Argos out in a Grey Cup game. They seem to find a way to win, and this has gone on for generations.

Too Bad , Warren Moon isn't here on your list.

CFL is so dumb. So many pointless changes to the real thing.

Form an alliance with the UFL and do a player exchange, or form an alliance with the NFL and let the NFL put teams in Toronto and Vancouver, CFL gets teams New York and Seattle or Detroit

Hopefully they expand to Quèbec City and Halifax. I think they can both support a team.

I hope everything is alright with you and yours

Don’t leave us hanging JH

where u at bro we need u

I definitely see a cap of 12-teams for the CFL, if it were to remain a Canadian-only league. Halifax, QC, and London are definitely your top markets in that regard. Could consider Kitchener, but I don't think they have the facilities for it. If they do want to come back to the US, they have to make the trips south as simple as possible. So places like Detroit, Seattle, and Minneapolis would top that list. Could also look into other northern cities without pro football like Milwaukee, Portland, or even Rochester.

The Best way to generate interest. And every sport has this problem. Is make the game available across the globe for all to watch without any blackouts when streaming. And if the game is missed the fans can watch the recording, within reason. If possible cut a deal with Netflix.

I would love for the CFL to come back to the USA. St. Louis, Missouri is a football hungry city that would cling to a team born there. I wish Atlanta, Georgia would work but we can't keep an NHL team here.

CFL WAS IN THE US but team owned voted to move out of the US in the late 90s.

Columbus Ohio

Go big, with whatever city gets team 10 in Canada, add 2 in the US. St. Louis is an easy choice for 11. The 12th could go for a traditional college football location. One I'd love is morgantown, wv. Looking at ticket $ and average attendance, morgantown could put 20k each week. Not great but at or above average for current cfl teams.

The CFL needs to tell the political leaders of Halifax to pound salt. Establish a football team in Quebec City. Atlantic Canada is just not a football rich region.

If the league decides to expand to the US, they need to focus on cities that have a strong football culture, but no NFL team.

I wholeheartedly agree with expansion within Canadian borders. Furthermore, if the CFL wishes to maintain a six team playoff tourney, 12 teams are an absolute must. I believe we live in an age where TV corporations - in all of their modern permutations - are looking for content. The advantage the CFL has over the USFL/XFL is that the league's "story" goes well into October. I don't feel that the CFL competes for USFL/XFL players because non-CFL players play in alt leagues aspiring to reach the NFL that fall. CFL players commit to a schedule that excludes the NFL as an in-year option. The quantity of players is there, and someone mentioned below that not only Halifax / Moncton is a location, but Quebec, Victoria and Surrey / Abbotsford are relatively viable options; 3 of those 4 can make a complete 12 team league. Six games per week makes for more content; with the advent of streaming and the gambling dollars, a smart revenue-sharing plan can sustain a 12-team league and turn a tidy profit (hell, I watch Aussie-rules football; an international market BEGS for more sports content!). You could even (barely) imagine a 2-division east and 2-division west with three teams each. One team within the next two years, with the other two coming in as a pair in five years HAS to be the conversation and push to make the CFL more relevant and more sustainable for the foreseeable future.

A 12 team CFL. is the magic number in my opinion with teams in Halifax (Atlantic) , Quebec City & Victoria BC. but if the CFL. fells like going state side again to grow the league even more they can go to border & or medium size USA markets such as Rochester , Portland , Michigan & Hartford but I still think a 12 team all Canadian CFL. the way to go

5 teams in the East, 5 teams in the West, 5 teams in Mexico. Top 2 seed gets a bye. Remaining 4 play in wildcard playoffs. If Mexico wants, C may stand for Continental in Mexico. This is real expansion and will attract interest from other parts of the world.

The CFL failed in the US because of its name, Canadian Football League. The NBA, MLB, NHL and MLS all have cross border franchises but none of them specify a particular nation. The Continental Football League with a Canadian Football Conference and a International Football Conference. The IFC would allow not only US teams but also possibly the opportunity to beat the NFL to Mexico and Europe markets. The CFL should enter into an exclusive agreement with the CFS schools in the US to bolster talent through attracting D2 talent. A spring/summer schedule would allow the CFL to beat the UFL in providing talent to the NFL similar to the Loan System in soccer. Finally teams outside of Canada should be allowed to play in stadiums with NFL size fields similar to MLB parks having different dimensions.

I agree with expansion, but not to the US again.

Ryan Ballentine slagging the USA expansion era near the end. Not everyone ignores it. As a BC fan it was a great time in the CFL.

Wasn't the Argo. Wasn't even close. :)

How bout a team in Windsor?

Detroits defense will be a problem when they run into some of the elite nfc teams but they should win a wild card game I’d be shocked if they don’t however if it’s Seattle maybe another nfc north rival id be concerned

So are you a lions and bills fan? If so let’s say they meet in the Super Bowl who would you root for

The 49ers are a team you have to play a perfect game to beat I just hope if cowboys meet them again it will be a third times the charm kinda situation

I am a U S citizen originally from Rochester, NY but I have seen a few CFL games. I find the CFL games to be much less interesting to watch than the NFL and U S college games. The CFL playing fields are too long and wide, putting fans in the stands too far from the action. I would also switch the game rules to match U S football too. Otherwise if there are no major structural and rules changes, the CFL will eventually dissolve, as teams can't keep losing money year after year.

If the Canadian Football League expands to 12 teams the cities: Halifax, Quebec City, and Saskatoon would make ideal expansion cities to add to the CFL. As a Saskatchewan resident could you imagine a team in Regina and Saskatoon in the Canadian Football League squaring off against each other 3 times a year. The attendance for those games would go through the roof. Even with rivalries new with Winnipeg, both Alberta clubs, even B. C.. Also, Saskatoon is out West and Regina needs an in provincial rival like Edmonton & Calgary. Just my thoughts Saturday after the 110th Grey Cup. Take Care.

" and with that the 2023 season comes to an end "

we did it maaaang we fu....ing did it maaaaaannnnggg !!!!

Nice sweater!

Hopefully not but they seem unstoppable at the moment. Hopefully someone will dethrone them!!

Great video jason! Keep up the good work.

A great place is Frank Consentino's series of CFL books, especially: The Grey Cup Years (1909-1968). Thanks for all the great content! Hard to believe that a Montreal team has never played a Winnipeg team in the THE GREY CUP! I'm so happy to be a Bomber fan at this time. The last great period for the team were the 3 Cup wins in 7 seasons (1984, 1988, and 1990). While it looks dominant in hindsight, there was always someone better than the Blue and Gold during that time (and in the 1988 GC the 8-8 Blue Bombers would not have made the playoffs if they were still in the West). I'm pulling for Winnipeg on Sunday. GO BOMBERS GO!

You deserve wayy more subs and watch time!!

Jason's preview is a little TOO good: I agree with everything he said. All I can add is that Montreal's defence can bend but must not break: achieve a 2nd and long result and a long drive can result in a field goal or less. And the Alouettes need luck on their side- doesn't have to be as much as against the Argos, but still...

Love your videos keep up the great work!

Excellent Job Loved it

Should be a fun grey cup this is a matchup that has never happened before and I’m not gonna lie I think there’s a chance that Winnipeg blows them out but of course that alouettes defense is really tough

put some respect on my alouettes bro :)

Winning this one would already mean that this dynasty would pass Calgary imo

The bombers know a thing or two about winning a grey cup in Hamilton

Great analysis! Go Blue!

I think before they venture south of the border again, why not play some preseason games in the US? I thinking less to expand but to generate interest & TV revenue. Hopefully they can earn money before the NFL & College football kicks off. I like to see players can earn more. I wish the CFL could build interest outside the North America as well. I'm an American in Germany and most Germans that I have talked to don't know that there is another form of gridiron football. I have told a lot of NFL fans in Germany to check out Canadian Football. I think that we can love both. This was a good weekend because both the Vikings and Bombers won.

I just discovered your channel I love both The NFL and CFL.

Dalton shoen being out really sucks but lawler is still a great wr he will need to make some plays and I don’t know if demski is playing but if he is then that is big cause he is a playmaker and can’t forget about Rasheed bailey either
