Is Toronto ready for some NFL football?
Last Updated Sun., Oct. 19 2006
Tony Care, CBC Sports
Landing a National Football League team has always seemed a remote possibility for the city of Toronto.
After all, with a new NFL franchise estimated to be worth $1-billion US these days, who can blame the skeptics who view Toronto�s continuing fascination as mere rhetoric.
Aside from Toronto Blue Jays CEO and president Paul Godfrey�s interest in pursing a franchise since 1988, deep-pocketed business people have shied away from all the NFL talk.

Let them get a CFL team first
(actually that joke was a lot better in the years Toronto was in the basement of the league -- not so funny now that they're in first place)
But seriously, I think Buffalo and Detroit might balk at having another NFL team so close
