    Tebow to the CFL

    Could it happen? if so when?

    The guy seems to be suited for our league.

    Plus wouldnt it be nice to see a guy with such solid values in the CFL, as a hero.
    The last outspoken good Christian in the CFL was pinball, and look what he did.

    He may even qualify as a non import being as he was born in the Philipines...hmmmm....

    honestly..he will end up in miami or jacksonville to sell some tickets before he would consider coming to the CFL....that said...i think he would be a nice fit as a CFL QB

    He could end up north of the border one day...but I don't think the NFL is through with him yet.

    Should point out that Hamilton "own" his rights as he's on their Neg. List.

    well..i was actually hoping...since Pat Bolen is an Edmonton native, and owns the Bronco's, that maybe he would "assign" Tebow to the Eskimo's for a few seasons.

    I think that Tebow will flame out of the NFL within the next couple of years but I really don't know how effective he would be in the CFL. He seems like a Kevin Mason-type to me.

    The kind of money it would take to get him up here would be a cap killer and a monumental risk considering he's never even seen a CFL sized field never mind played on one.

    I don't care for the way that everybody gushed over him last season. He wasn't that good.

    Naylor seems to think Tebow could be in Canada within the next couple years.

    Also I always thought that this was hilarious.............. Anyone else remember that Cory Boyd was "Tebowing" before Tim made it cool, yet you never hear the media talk about that.

    ^ I've been saying this the whole time, not sure if on here but CFL players especially before the game in the endzone and after at center field have been "Tebowing" at Skydome for years.

    In general, it seems like there has been more Canadian media coverage of Tim Tebow's recent move to New York than there was of Ricky Ray's to Toronto. I have seen coverage of Tebow on both CBC's and CTV's news networks and I can't recall seeing anything about Ray on either of those outlets. TSN even sent a reporter to New York to cover Tebow's press conference yesterday. I am concerned that the CFL is losing coverage to the NFL in this country and the Tebow vs. Ray coverage is evidence of that. What is particularly sad is that Ray is 10 times the QB that Tebow is but I wonder if the majority of Canadians know that.

    I agree with the fact that the CFL, and especially the Argo's get snubbed in the media. (and im no fan of the anti-cfl TORONTO media)

    That said, The Argo's sign Ricky Ray in what is nothing short of a BLOCKBUSTER deal...they bring him to the CN tower, have a nice lil press conference, and POOF...he's gone.

    You'd have a better chance of finding Waldo, than Ricky since that announcement. , IMO the Argo's goofed up bigtime, Ray should have been doing promo. after promo ever since he signed. Yet he hasnt been in Toronto since, has he?

    He was here for the Conn Smythe dinner and did two appearances at the auto show where I met him, so he's been in Toronto since December.

    The Conn Smythe Dinner is a great place to glad hand the upper crust...but really...2 events?...

    they need to trot this guy around the city like the celebrity he is...2 events is hardly enough to create a buzz about the biggest signing in over 15 years...

    Im disappointed that the Argo's brass hasn't utilized this guy more in off season promotion and marketing...

    In his press conference, Tebow used the word excited 44 times.
