I can watch any CFL game with any 2 teams and not be bored most of the time. Can't say the same for NFL and even the NHL.
The only thing 'bush' about the CFL are the roughrider fans who where their damn green jerseys' to just about everything. Flames games, weddings, funerals...

The CFL rules themselves aren't that bush. Its the presentation, lack of teams and player quality that makes it so. Both the NFL and CFL would benefit from tweaking their rules a little, frankly. Most importantly, how come hockey and soccer can be played in well under 3 hours (playoffs notwithstanding), but an average football game clocks in at about 3 1/2 hours. They really need to shave some time off their games.
I can't really get into the NFL, but its pretty obvious as a casual viewer that the talent gap is immense. The NHL has its share of snoozers too, but the CFL does too. Hamilton v. Winnipeg, no thanks. Sask is fun to watch because the fans are so hillbilly, with their watermelon helmets, etc.
