...for Vito, Mike,or whoever might know.....
I am aware of the single point for a kick that goes out of/downed in the end zone.
Question- If a kicker misses a field goal attempt, and it goes out the end zone, does he still get the single point?

It's one of those idiosyncrocies peculiar to the Canadian version of the game-longer field,3 downs,not enough teams.

Canadian fans are strange-the Bills game didn't draw anywhere near what the NFL was expecting.They don't support the CFL in Toronto either,maybe the market is a lost cause.Lot of recent immigrants for who Football isn't part of their culture.

Obviously, from a Bills' fan's view, the Toronto proposition is a mixed bag: If it were TRULY an attempt to only tap into the Canadian market, and would result in NO MORE than one regular season game in Toronto per year, i can live with it.
But, given that Ralph wilson is 90 and getting senile, and he won't sell the team while he's alive, and his kids have no loyalty to buffalo, and the lease expires with Erie County anyway in about 5 years, and there are few "Big money players" in Buffalo who could step and buy the team, one can't blame Bills fans for being pesimistic about the long-term future of the bills in buffalo.
i think the NFL wouldn't hesitate to approve relocation when Raplh dies, other than any Anti-trust law concerns.
How is the CFL reacting to this whole Bills/NFL invasion of canada?

They like it from what I have heard. They are trying to use it to advertise the CFL.I think the reason people didn't buy many tickets was price. 120 I a ticket i saw.
