A graphic presenting records of Canadian Football League (CFL) expansion teams. It lists five teams: Baltimore ('94) with a record of 10-4 (.714), Las Vegas ('94) 5-9 (.357), Sacramento ('93) 6-12 (.333), B.C. ('54) 1-15 (.063), and Shreveport ('94) 0-14 (.000)
During the October 1994 broadcast of what turned out to be the final home game of the #LasVegasPosse, TSN’s graphics department had a little fun putting together this image. I’m sure the @bclions.com didn’t appreciate being grouped with these teams. #CFL #CFLUSA
A chart displaying final scores of various football games held over the first week of September in the CFL for 1995.
Week 10 in the #CFL was a strong one for the American expansion teams in 1995.
Congrats to the Birmingham Barracudas, Baltimore Stallions, Memphis Mad Dogs, & San Antonio Texans! 🎉
Only the Shreveport Pirates didn’t record a win. 😥

A social media post discussing the long off-season for CFL fans, suggesting watching a Grey Cup game on YouTube on a Friday night to engage in conversation. A comment expresses a preference against watching another Grey Cup, proposing something involving American expansion teams.
I don't think r/CFL liked my idea! 😜

That patchwork field is horrific.

Two men are smiling and holding up a black t-shirt that features "Las Vegas Posse" on it. They stand in front of a banner with the same name and images of cowboys on horseback.
The Las Vegas Posse: Where Heatstroke and Failed CFL Dreams Coexist.
Wearing this shirt held by Coach Ron Meyer and Team President Nick Mileti is like a showcasing a neon sign from the Strip that says, "Ask Me About My Poor Life Choices."

Box score for a CFL game between Baltimore and Toronto on July 7. Final score: Baltimore 28, Toronto 20.
🏈🇨🇦 #CFLUSA Flashback 🇺🇸🕒
Despite lacking a team name, Baltimore secured a win. QB Tracy Ham and WR Chris Armstrong teamed up for two touchdowns. Toronto reached the 3-yard line but failed to score, turning the ball over on downs with just 11 seconds left.

2 sports logos: Sacramento Surge and Sacramento Gold Miners
Additionally, since the Texans were the relocated Sacramento Gold Miners (formerly the WLAF Sacramento Surge), both of which featured teal in their branding, this color selection wasn't an odd choice.

A revival of the Continental Football League moniker would have been the outcome I’d hoped for.
Rebranding is ridiculously expensive. Keep it CFL and quietly rotate out everything that explicitly says Canadian.

The image is a screenshot from a commercial during a 1995 CFL football game. It prominently features the 3M logo with the word "Innovation" next to it. Below this, there is a view of a cityscape with a road lined with streetlights and a few cars. Additionally, there is a CFL logo with the letters "TSN" in the bottom right corner, indicating the broadcast network. The image is interesting as it ties a major sponsor, 3M, to the CFL, highlighting the theme of innovation.
"At 3M, we innovate on and off the field, just like the #CFL. Proud sponsor of excellence & performance, we push boundaries in technology and safety. Together, we make every play count. 3M – Innovation in every game."
