    Bills/Argonauts agree to exhibition matchup

    http://www.argonauts.ca/article/argo...bition-matchup

    Toronto – The Toronto Argonauts Football Club has thrown down the gauntlet today, announcing that the team will take part in an exhibition matchup on May 29 against the Buffalo Bills of the NFL. The game is a throwback to the cross-league matchups of the past, when NFL and AFL teams travelled to Canada for seven games against CFL squads between 1950 and 1961. This time around, the battle shifts to Ralph Wilson Stadium in Buffalo, where the teams will alternate between CFL and NFL rules each half.
    “We’re extremely excited about this opportunity and we think our fans should be excited too” said Argonauts Senior Vice President David Bedford. “We first established a partnership with the Buffalo franchise through the Bills in Toronto series, and we’re excited to be taking the next logical step with a head-to-head matchup between our teams.”


    hahaha.

    It would be nice to see the bills play one of our better teams. not the argos.
    Political correctness ( or cancel culture as it is called today) is a doctrine fostered by a delusional ,illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by MSM which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    It would be nice for CFL teams to not play the Bills at all - nothing to do with CFL itself, I just want our young guys playing against the best competition possible. Im sure some CFL teams would put up a fight but they still arent on the caliber of NFL teams top to bottom.

    This would be a pretty neat idea if it was actually true.

    I would love to see the bills play the stamps, and the stamps have the better QB.

    It's a sad, sad commentary on how far from football season we are that this thread is still on the first page.
