The big problem is that you're right the money is coming from the Rock and his Ex, and if his idea is to eventually form some kind of partnership with the NFL its likely that the rule change is going to happen. The CFL needs to do something here, attendance has dropped, a whole season missed, They couldn't get help from the government. The suddeness of this makes me feel like the CFL reached out to the Rock for help.
I love 3 down football and the zany rules. The Canadian players helps me go to coach because it excites the kids that there's a chance even a small one of one day being able to play in front of their parents at a pro level.
I do expect that rule changes and ownership changes will be a big part of an XFL requirements for merging.

I wonder what a game (or field) would look like if anytime the CFL team had the ball, it was CFL rules and every time the XFL team had the ball, it was XFL rules.

Quite literally, an uneven playing field!

Haha — sorry about that. They were just screen grabs and I tried to zoom in so you could see the helmet better. You can watch the actual video here: https://www.instagram.com/bolevimitchell/
Agreed, cancelling 2022 makes no sense. Reminds me of this:
In any event, I think the CFL has a good chance of playing games this year — the question is when the season starts and whether they play a full season.
Watching that little clip makes me miss the CFL even more. I'm tired of ####ty Flames hockey and want nothing more than to sit outside on Labour Day watching the Stamps beat the Eskimos!
