No, i don't think it should be included.
My reason?
The NFL is the organization that started the HOF here. If you allow CFL stats, then you have to argue to include Arena Football Stats. It's a slippery slope.
If the CFL wants a hall of fame, they should have one of their own. After all, we don't recognize stats form Japan in the Major League Baseball HOF, right? If we did, then Saduhara OH (i probably didn't spell his name right) would be the home run king over (i hate to even SAY his name) Barry Bonds (and of course that would put him past the REAL HR King, Hank Aaron).
The rules and field are different then the NFL, thus, it should not be included.
Only my opinion, of course.

But IMO.. if a player has earned his way to the Pro Football Hall of Fame then if he has notable stats from CFL they should be noted.

If I am not mistaken, AFL player pre merger are in the HOF... technically they are not NFL player.. Does that matter.. lol.. probably not. :lol:

The big difference to me here is the skill level. The AFL was up to NFL standards for most of its existance, the CFL isn't.

The stats should be noted, without a doubt. If you put up numbers like Warren Moon and then go on to be a great player in the NFL, the CFL numbers should weigh in.

If you're a Doug Flutie, though, and you've had a very good CFL career but just a pedestrian NFL career, I don't think that the CFL stats should push you in the HoF.

Little trivia, there's just one player who's inducted in the HoF who has never taken a snap in the NFL and only in the AFL. Bills guard Billy Shaw.

I guess the question I have is whether Moon did enough in the NFL to warrant his inclusion in the HoF. I don't think he did and I am a huge fan. Jeff Garcia has silently captured 4 I believe Pro Bowls which I believe is more than Moon, and yet some would laugh at his inclusion.

I think Flutie had more than a pedestrian NFL career, but again I am very biased. His stats are pretty good for a guy that has seen limited action with pretty mediocore teams.
