I am American and I moved to Toronto about 6 years ago, from Florida.

I have found a real love for the CFL and for the Argos.

Personally I think that NFL is way overhyped and when you watch it you think to yourself "That's IT???". Always expecting more and waiting for something spectacular, which never actually happens.

THe CFL is exciting football with exciting players.

In Toronto, there seems to be a lot of NFL fans. Their rationale is "Toronto is a world-class city, we deserve a world-class league."

The fact is that the American media has over-hyped the NFL so much that even now Canadians think its a world-class league. They're just wannabees who want to have something in common with Americans. Its 'cool' in Toronto to talk about the NFL, because there are no domestic teams and it shows that you're "in" if you are knowledgable about the NFL. They wear NFL jerseys over CFL jerseys to show off.

I say F U to those people, the CFL is a better league, with different, more exciting kinds of players. Too bad some Canadians are too stuck up to realize it.

It puzzles me that Canadians would be so un-patriotic, as well. THe CFL is the best professional league you have, and a damn good one.

If I were Canadian, I would much rather watch Toronto vs. Montreal, then Houston vs. Arizona, for example. And even though I am not, I still do prefer the former.

Maybe a Canadian NFL fan would like to fill me in?
