(Arguably you could say that this is the case right now, but it hasn't translated into a popular product the way it did during the Flutie/Garcia years).
I like both, but I have a harder time finding people interested in talking about football than hockey, and if they are interested in talking about CFL, they're more likely to be relocated from another part of the country.
