Listen:
Thinking it couldn't happen isn't arrogant. Thinking it could IS. You are talking about a league consisting of, let's be generous here, 95% of players whom could not even scratch the rosters of the worst teams in the league. That is simply a fact. You know how I know that this seemingly subjective statement is indeed an objective viewpoint based in fact? Because the NFL is about winning and if there were some stash of players somewhere that could be looted to increase a team's chances of winning no NFL team would ignore that. There would be copious amounts of players coming from the CFL. It would be a known occurence. So while you have one, admittedly, great former player we have literally thousands of talent evaluators, scouts, GMs, coaches and so forth that clearly think that there is very little to be had in the CFL. Warren Moon last played in the CFL 20 years ago. He last played in the NFL almost 10 years ago. He has had nothing to do with either as far as I know since. His opinion about whether the CFL could compete TODAY is absolutely irrelevant. You didn't ask us about 20 years ago. You asked about TODAY. Thinking that a collection of never wases could rally togerther and compete with even a single NFL team has no sense. All the important evidence proves so.
