I wasn't. I was comparing the historical record. Traditionally speaking, African American coaches (and quarterbacks) have found it much easier to get ahead in the CFL than in the NFL.

Well, everyone is better in the CFL than they are in the NFL, to be fair.

See, I'd rather watch a CFL game over an NFL game anyway. You must really love the game if you're playing in the CFL for no money and next to no notoriety.

I can get that from college ball...without Canadians, which is a plus.

Are you kidding? Most of the players in the CFL are American. In fact, that's how I know when it's football season in Vancouver - suddenly there are way more African American men in town than at any other time of year.

Yes, you will find *BOTH* Americans and Canadians represented in the CFL, NFL, and yes, even college football, but way more Americans to be sure.

I know a couple of African American men who went to the CFL after college in the late 90s.

Do you remember which team it was? Playing for Montreal, Toronto or Vancouver would be okay, as those cities have stuff to do in them. Playing for Saskatchewan or Winnipeg would be horrible, because Regina & Winnipeg are yucky.
