The wait continues for the former University of Maine players on Canadian Football League rosters. The CFL has suspended operations due to the COVID-19 pandemic. According to a report by Global News, the CFL has asked the Canadian government for a $30 million loan to help pay for an abbreviated season during which each of the nine teams play six regular-season games leading up to the playoffs. All of the games would be played in a hub city and defending Grey Cup champion Winnipeg won that bid.
