"American teams' expansion fees saved some of the Canadian-based teams and pulled others back from the abyss. They bought the league some time. Most importantly, those three years helped restore the CFL's soul." - Ed Willes, End Zones & Border Wars Team Overview - 1994 JOGO CFL #220 #CFLUSACards

THIS IS OUR GAME. #CFL (except for that weird stretch from '93–'95 when it was also Baltimore’s game, and maybe also the game of Vegas' parking lot sod guy, but we proved it was our game in '94, while ignoring the 83rd Grey Cup, and yes, the curator of this account lives in Chicago which is odd)
