Somebody over on the Riders site mentioned that the CFL team could play down south early in the season. Maybe something like a home and home type thing over all. CFL play XFL rules when they visit the XFL cities, and teams would play CFL rules when the XFL teams play a return game in Canada in May. Games count in their respective standings. CFL teams could be allowed to play all their Americans on their 45 man roster when playing XFL teams. I believe the XFL season ends in late June or early July, while the CFL season would continue on past Thanksgiving. Playing two games against XFL teams could create more interest on both sides of the border for the CFL. Got to try something.
