Wow - I'm surprised they're going to hold a regular season game in Canada! To be honest, I'd ripped if I were a Broncos or Pats fan and my team lost a home game to go play it elsewhere...
As for Commonwealth, asthetically, it's a nice football stadium. It also is the biggest stadium in the CFL (including the domes I think) and has natural grass - two big pluses there. It's a terrible place to watch a football game though - the track makes you feel like you're a mile away from the field and there is absolutely nothing for atmosphere. Give me a field/stadium that isn't as asthetically nice but has atmosphere and character any day. None of those in the CFL would work for an NFL game mind you - Commonwealth is the best of the CFL stadiums for that type of event.
