#UFL isn’t doing too well.
The league is playing to empty stadiums. Which is too bad because I think they play exciting #football.
But because it’s failing, you get lots of UFL fans asking about their team joining the #CFL. And I get it. If you’re from St. Louis, why wouldn’t you want a football team in a stable league—one unlikely to disappear overnight?
Yet this is just a fundamentally bad idea for numerous reasons. The biggest reason is that it’s been tried before. In the best situation, NFL sees American CFL teams as a cheap test market, and they move in the moment they see success. This is exactly what happened with the Baltimore Stallions.
I think CFL should expand in Canada before even contemplating the USA. Get teams in Quebec City and Halifax. Other potential markets are Kitchener, Thunder Bay, Kelowna, and Victoria. Perhaps a dark horse candidate could be Windsor or St. John’s.
Inside Canada, I can see CFL feasibly expanding to 16 teams—though it likely won’t. But after they maximize the Canadian market, then maybe they can contemplate the USA.
But if they do so, they should target American border communities first. None of these Southern states that already have big NCAA teams. That will be immediately disastrous.
Instead, target cities like Rochester, Fargo, and Portland, Oregon. All these cities are hungry for football, are big enough to support a pro sports franchise, yet will likely never have an NFL team.
Rochester had an NFL team—one of the original NFL teams, in fact. Back in the 1920s, they were the home to the Jeffersons. The CFL would do well here.
Fargo is could basically be the “American Saskatchewan”. Lots of football talent over here. And the Fargodome can easily host a CFL team.
Portland, Oregon works so well because they’ve been scorned by the NFL for decades, are hungry for a pro team, and they’ve shown great support for the Timbers and Trail Blazers.
More importantly, none of these cities will blink if they have to face an Edmonton or Hamilton. It won’t be weird for them—any more than it’s weird for a junior hockey team to play in the CHL.
Nevertheless, I don’t see many American teams in the CFL. Perhaps three at the most. Anything more and there will be terrible imbalance.
