Is there going to be a new CFL team in the 2008-2009 season?

Question

Just wondering

Answer 1

It is doubtful, it seems like the people in Ottawa cant get their act together, and the CFL is not going to place another disaster waiting to happen in Ottawa, just so there is a team there.

No other city currently meets the requirements for a franchise.

Answer 2

maybe in halifax so the league will really be coast to coast.

Answer 3

A team in the Maritimes would be great for the league!!!

Answer 4

Ottawa deserves a team.  I'm rooting for them to get it!  

There might be other possibilities too, like Olympic Statium revivng the Concorde.

I think Quebec City will get in ahead of Halifax to balance the numbr of teams to a round number.

If Buffalo's NFL team goes to Toronto, maybe the CFL can take over the border-town area of Buffalo, to give the Argos 2 nearby rivals.  Why not?!?

Hey, LA is open!  With all the Canadians working in Hollywood, maybe CFL could work in that giant metropolis.

The Saints deserted San Antonio tis year, and I remember the CFL used to have a team there too.

I seem to recall, long ago, it was the CFL that was the first pro league to place a team in Vegas too!

Answer 5

I'd like to see a team in Ottawa and the Maritimes.  It's time we made the league go coast to coast.

Answer 6

In 2009 maybe. Can't see one in 2008.

As for the Detroit Lions, we'd sooner do without thanks!!

Answer 7

The CFL can have the Detroit Lions.

Answer 8

The buzz is once again in Ottawa, and again, and again.

At what point will they just say enough is enough.

What about (and I am just throwing this out there) another location? I personally would really like to see a team in the Maritimes. I am not from there but I am pretty sure the fans would be fanatical no matter which province they would play on that coast!

Answer 9

Ottawa has tried this too many times and failed.

Time to try another city.

e.g. Halifax, Quebec City, London, Windsor.

Answer 10

Make the Miami Dolphins an offer, they'd move in a heart beat right now.

Answer 11

Seems like I remember 15 years ago, maybe 20, there was supposed to be a team in Halifax, the Schooners, but it folded before the season started. Is there enough money and fan support there to have a team?
