That's a BS excuse. It's that they're not willing to put in the time to learn the game and the players. I love the NFL and fully admit I lose interest in the CFL from the week after Labour Day until the playoffs, but it is not "subpar quality". It's very different and doesn't look the same as the NFL, but these guys are pros and among the very best athletes you can find. Remember, lots of these guys were stars on big time college programs. They didn't make the NFL because they don't necessarily suit the NFL prototype, not because they trip all over themselves on the gridiron.
