^ Great point. As a city, we very much think of ourselves as a "big fish" when it comes to sports. Even the NHL (and certainly the CFL) are small ponds compared with other North American sports, we seem to discount anything less than a top tier. Our local media perpetuates the cycle by ignoring a lot of things outside of the Flames and the Stamps because it is small potatoes, but those potatoes could have grown if they had been watered a little.
OK - enough analogies! I'm cautiously optimistic that this CanPL can generate enough buzz to command some attention. I hope the league has some slick marketing and PR so they can strut a little bit. Force people to take note.
