I think there is potential given the huge demand for football in the US and Canada. They'd have to do it right and really strive to not have it treated like curiosity/spectacle. Basically, do it the opposite way that the XFL was done. I really beleive there is more than enough talent to sustain another league, but I shudder at what it might do the the CFL talent pool (not that anyone but us canucks care about that). if they do get it going, I agree that spring would be the best time to start. Wonder if they would try to set it up like a minor league for the NFL or would really try to compete with them in the long run (good luck on that one).
