    Egg on their faces......beautiful!!!
    Team loyalties in the NFL spans beyond Toronto, it's nationwide. All 32 teams have fans here.

    Sure, but I haven't heard a lot of speculation regarding an NFL in Thunder Bay lately.

    I guess I should have stated that my point should have been that that is why the NFL would be in tough anywhere in the country.

    Actually I was looking at the population of northern Ontario(Kenora, Thunder Bay, Dryden, etc.)in the hopes that someone with money would do a feasibility study of putting a CFL expansion team there but I think it's a bit too small. Wishful thinking I guess.

    I'd love to see a team in one of the maritime provinces, that would make it a truly Canadian league coast to coast. I think they would bring incredible energy to the league. Population is definitely the biggest reason it hasn't happened.

    I've been to every Touchdown Atlantic ... it's an amazing and exciting vibe ... like a big college game atmosphere. It's too bad that the attendance declined slightly with successive game ... still a higher attendance than an Argo dome game seeing that it is held at U of Monction.

    I am with you, 10 teams would be a nice round number as well, would make for a fun road trip!!
