The xfl and usfl merging makes more sense of they're going to attempt to make spring football a thing in the USA. No need to force a league to change rules in that case.
Alternate USA rules football leagues in the USA hasn't worked in 40 years, but never say never I guess.
Arena Football worked in the US for a bit but yeah I think if the Merger happened and they went by CFL rules the league would have been doomed.
As far as Merger Talks go from what I read the CFL- XFL thing is done. I think that will be a relief to die Hard CFL fans like yourself.
As far as a Merger with the USFL I think it would be interesting but I haven't seen any rumors that suggest that's a possibility at this time.
The most interesting rumors that I have read has been that the XFL is hell bent on being an international league. They are interested in putting a team in Canada and Mexico . One of the rumors that is gaining steam is that the Alouettes will move to the XFL. FYI I would be surprised if that happened I would assume the CFL has rules against that
My hypothesis is that the XFL will be taking a lot of Ideas and personal from the CFL. In particular I think Ambrose will be the XFL commissioner and the XFL will have its own international draft. ( Not sure that's a big loss for the CFL fans).
