The Definition Of Insanity

It was reported today in The Globe and Mail that plans are in the works to bring a CFL franchise back to the nation's capital by the 2010 season.

For a league presumably concerned with its long-term survival with the likely arrival of the big, bad NFL soon, expansion seems like the last good option for Canada's football league, and expansion to Ottawa, a city where football failed twice before, appears to be an idea conceived out of idiocy.

Albert Einstein's definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. The CFL's decision to move back to Ottawa after 2 failed attempts fits the category.

Hey, it's the Easter weekend - no better time to talk resurrection!

Just kidding, I think it's pathetic that the league is even entertaining the thought of considering to contemplate the possibility of maybe bringing back a team in Ottawa. (Did you follow all that?)
