For me, it is NFL -> NCAA -> CFL. I respect the CFL but just don't have the same level of enthusiasm I have for the others. I enjoy watching the best players in the world, at their age level, for all sports not just football. For that reason, the CFL is my least favorite of north american football leagues.
I follow the CFL casually and know most of the Stampeders players and catch the occasional game as well as keeping track of their progess each week, but I don't go out of my way to watch the games. I always watch the Grey Cup and hope the Stampeders win every year. I don't belittle the CFL or CFL fans though. I simply like watching the best athletes in the world for their age group compete and the CFL doesn't offer that.
