Heard NFL is coming to Toronto!

[Turbinator]

Anyone got anything on this? If this is true then BRAAAAP! But don't know if it is or not...

Expecting Dravid to know something about this...

Edit: Let me clarify, I mean I heard Toronto is going to be an NFL team.

Why?

Anyways, I am not sure if that answers my question.

well say it out loud sounds dull.

answer to your question is: I dunno, l=more than likely it will be a preseason game. I doubt Toronto will do what Mexico did and pulled the biggest crowd ever for a NFL fixture 102 000people

It probably won't do what Mexico did, but it certainly will generate lots of interest. Football, although less than Ice Hockey and Basketball, is loved by a lot of Torontonians. Look at the attendance for CFL games, and that's CFL, imagine if NFL came to Toronto.

O wait I think you misunderstood my question. I don't mean "Is an NFL game gonna take place in Toronto"... I mean to say "Is the NFL coming to Toronto as in I heard Toronto is going to be a future NFL team".

hahaha a toronto franchise? I heard the next one was going to be Los Angeles (again).

but you could always relocate to toronto in madden.

 

[Dravid]

It's not going to happen dude. Sorry to say, but the NFL will think about LA before Toronto.

 

[Jono]

Doesn't Canada have its own football league.

I remember watching Seinfeld and Jerry was talking about selling his Superbowl tickets, but Kramer wouldn't buy them because he only watches Canadian football.

yeah its the CFL has all weird rules aswell.

It's Canada

 

[Turbinator]

Yea very wierd rules...tbh it sucks. It's filled with all the rejects from the NFL.

But see, the NFL is not limited to USA, it can include Canada too... just like the NBA, NHL, MLB.

You call us wierd ... we're not the ones who prefer watching a bunch of cars with advertisements for McDonalds on them race around a track instead of some fast paced Ice Hockey.

USA, Canada, same thing....the only major thing that seperates us is the border.....other than that you can call USA - Canada's more violent and abusive twin brother!

Certainly....Also, we're the fifth largest city in North America... but then again the CFL will completely go out of business if the NFL does decide to come to Toronto. All of Canada will be rooting for us!

I think the South Park creators sum it up better.

Unlike Canada who has never had a girlfriend. Just saying.

Indeed. Along with Baseball. NBA and NFL are the only two sports worth following from America.
