CFL is a more exciting game because offense is relies on the pass more than the run. Here's the differences for all you Yankees:
-longer field (110 yards)
-wider field (65 yards)
-deeper endzone (20 yards)
-12 men on the field
-bigger ball
-no fair catch rule
-uprights at the front of the endzone
-3 downs
-different overtime, its not sudden death, cept in playoffs (unless they went back to the old rule)
-20 second play clock
-1 timeout per half (I don't like this rule)
-offensive backs have unlimited motion
-5 yards out for a 2 point conversion
-missed field goals can be returned
-a missed field goal not taken out of the endzone gets 1 point for off.
-teams can ellect to start at their 35 rather than accepting a kickoff. The same is true for the missed field goal. Play can start at the 35 or at the last point of scrimmage.
I find the CFL to be more exciting to watch, and I would love to see a home at home between two CFL and NFL teams. This has been debated several times before, and I feel the only fair way to do this is with a home at home, and in the case of a tie, (which would be likely) go by points for and against.
Now, onto BC's QB controversy. This is my prediction; look for Casey Printers to be in a Blue Bomber uniform next season. By starting Dickenson over Printers, (which I think was a good idea) I feel BC has stated their choice in the QB department. And seeing that Winnipeg is the only team in need of a starter, look for Printers to be on the praries.
Sorry for the long post, but I thought some people might want to know the differences.

OK, well , I am not trying to be a jerk, but I have been watching the NFL for a while, and you can return field goals that are short. Last year, Chris McAlister had had the longest return in history 108yd. Also, once again, I think that if you had the home at home thing between the teams, assuming you use the home's rules, in canada with the NFL visiting, it would a closer game, but here, canada would be slaughtered. Once again, I am biased and that is just my opinion. Thanks for showing me the differnces.
