Yeah I'm not a huge football fan or anything, but the amount of hate the CFL gets in this country is brutal. Do Austrians hate on the Austrian soccer league because it's inferior to the German league? Do the Irish hate on their league because it's inferior to the English Premier League? No and no. Both leagues have die hard fans that probably also do enjoy watching the odd game from the "superior" league.

This inferiority complex some people have here is dumb. Sure the CFL isn't as good talent wise as the NFL, but who cares. It's football that is born from this country and I'm damn proud of it because Canada is always better than America.
