>> Over a dozen XFL and USFL players from 2023 have signed on with CFL teams since the start of the New Year. There should be more signings as the ramp up continues to the 2024 CFL season in June.
It's the inevitable byproduct of the XFL and USFL merger. The two American spring pro football leagues have condensed their player pool in half, from 16 teams and over 800 players to eight teams now, and there will be 400 players in total when the United Football League season starts on March 30. <<
Not surprising for reasons liste ..read more

Noise emanating from the winter meetings in Nashville has the league considering changes that would cut down on the number of kickoff returns.
The concern is injuries. Research shows concussions are more likely to occur on those plays than any other.
The NFL already has taken steps, moving kickoffs up to the kicking team’s 35-yard-line and instituting a fair-catch option anywhere inside the receiving team’s 25, where that team would next scrimmage the ball.
The change bothers most purists as the majority of kickoffs now result in touch ..read more

>> Calgary Stampeders general manager and head coach Dave Dickenson said that the recent merger between the XFL and USFL will make his general manager duties easier in terms of acquiring talent.
“It will (make it easier to sign American players), it’s eight teams as well so everyone has kind of brought it down to a number that will take good players away but not dry out the talent pool like it was last year,” Dickenson said in an interview with Jock Wilson on QR 770’s Sports Talk with Jock.

Apologies to those who have heard this from me on other sites.
The CFL expansion goal probably isn’t going to happen. You can’t just plop a CFL team anywhere without years of marketing. The world loves 4 downs and 3 downs is very alien to the majority of people. If they want to expand they should do the following:
1. Expand marketing areas. For example BC could go into parts of Washington state, Oregon and Idaho. Six cities for each team should be visited a minimum of once every year. In BC’s case the first three are easy, Surrey, Burnaby and Vancouver. However, they should also visit Seattl ..read more
