Should the CFL allow the NFL to exist? Surely the NFL is violating copyright law of some kind by copying our sport. I think we should sue the NFL out of existence.
I am tired of seeing so many NFL questions on Yahoo! Answers in the last few days. It is polluting the sports section.
If you want to talk about football, talk about CANADIAN football only.
Canadian football has been around longer, Grey cup 95 years, Superbowl 45 years.

Sorry, hon, but the CFL didn't "invent" football, so they cannot sue to stop the NFL. And while the Super Bowl is 45, the NFL played long before that game came into existence (though the CFL is slightly older). Should MLB sue all Latin American countries and Japan for playing baseball? Or the NBA sue China for playing basketball? Silly argument. Besides, if you're so sick of American football questions, stick to the Canadian football section. Or is that much to hard?

What a joke. American football has been around since the 1880's. While the game has evolved thought the years, American football and the NFL is where players aspire to play. The CFL typically gets the players that can't make it in the NFL.
The NFL has so much money that a lengthly court case would bankrupt the CFL. Do you remember the USFL & the WFL, both bankrupted after filing law suits against the NFL.
Play your minor league version and we will continue to send cast-offs so that you have something that is atleast worth watching.

First off the Superbowl isn't the ORIGINAL Championship game of the NFL. Mind you the Grey Cup is older then the NFL but still. The NCAA is OLDER then the Grey Cup so maybe we should sue the CFL for copying our COLLEGE game instead if you to get stupid. Maybe you need to accept that they are two different games basically and deal with it. Our game is BIGGER then yours so the CFL would have NO CHANCE of taking down the NFL.

Is this a serious question? Off yourself, eh?
NFL is the greatest thing on TV. The CFL doesn't belong in the same building as the worst NFL team.
Would you guys mind taking Rex Grossman, though?

You clearly don't know the history of football in America and the NFL.
The CFL is a joke.

Canadian football is a joke. What are you smoking?
Also, football is an AMERICAN sport, not Canadian. It was started in AMERICA, not Canada. Have you been living under a rock or something? That must be the only thing Canada let's you live in. Figures.

Canadian football is roughly equal to being the best ballet dancer in Galveston.
