The CFL is returning, finally, again! The CFLPA and their players have voted to ratify the CBA headed into their 2022 CFL season and we have all of the latest to keep you informed with Football Canada president Jim Mullin and CFL Hall of Fame reporter Darrell Davis. We’re also previewing week 7 of the USFL and chatting all things USFL with Eric Eager of PFF and Cody Main of Establish The Run plus with big XFL news on the horizon, we have all sights set to next week!

In a late-night, last-minute ordeal, the CFL players have voted to ratify the CBA ahead of the 2022 CFL season. The good news is that the CFL season rolls on, big is it all good news as it relates to the CFL Canadian ratio, player pay and salary caps heading in the 2023 season and beyond? We bring on Football Canada president Jim Mullin to provide some breaking analysis and the news came out on Twitter. Jim has reservations that the players might have given up TOO much of the “Canadian” in the Canadian Football League in an attempt the get the 2022 CFL season underway. What long-term ramifications with the changes to the Canadian ratio have on the CFL moving forward and what could have been done alternatively? We discuss. Darrell Davis, Canadian Hall of Fame reporter also joins the show to explain why this was the correct time for the CFL players to take a stand and what goals they were hoping to achieve with their work stoppage.

The USFL season is past the halfway point and we welcome two fantastic guests to share their thoughts on the 2022 USFL season thus far. Eric Eager of PFF and Cody Main of Establish The Run stop by to talk all things USFL. We cover the latest USFL player transactions, rank the 8 USFL teams heading into the USFL playoffs, grade the quality of play by the USFL players and talk things the USFL can do to improve fan engagement moving forward. The USFL recently implemented a contract addendum prohibiting players in the USFL from transition to the CFL or the XFL, we discuss that and whether the USFL season timing is the ideal time for players transitioning from the USFL to an NFL practice squad this summer. There’s TONs of news in the world of the USFL right now and we have you covered with two of the best covering the USFL 2022 season, I hope you enjoy! Thanks for listening!!
