Go home, relax and don't over think it. CFL teams have nothing to do with this.

Sois serieux, mon chum,

Canadian college football mostly draws family, friends and drunken slackers skipping study time. What a business model to build a grand stadium for. You'd think herds of...

The CFL teams do not own the stadia they play in, but they have had an immense amount of input and involvement into the building of them. A stadium isn't just some random bunch of park benches...

Oh, do go on.

We simply love to hear about the CFL and concrete plans.

When it comes to concrete:

They've built or refurbished four stadiums lately for the CFL - Ottawa, Hamilton,...

No, Kurt,

It's the power that resonates from this continent-wide opinion influencing forum that forces people to respond. Desperate times call for desperate measures and the CFL has acted in...

I thought it was a menu item from The Danforth.

Thank you. The push back has to start somewhere.

There's been bullshit and bafflegab out the ying yang in the misappropriation of this facility. The stadium was built for soccer.

I can fully...

I beg to differ. The presence of the Argos at BMO Field is a detriment to soccer. We haven't seen the worst punishment it can inflict on the quality of soccer, but give it time. Aesthetically and...

Don't be so hasty to dismiss the collective denseness surrounding CFL marketing.

Here's a picture from last year's announcement of the awarding of the 2016 Grey Cup to Toronto. Toronto Mayor (and...

While I didn't watch the telecast of the Monday game other than seeing a half-time segment, I did watch TSN's sports report this morning. If you're an Argos fan, it's grim viewing. If you're involved...

Plenty of prairie people plopping peat patties about whether the new stadiums in Regina and Winnipeg will be able to host a viable football league in the near future and justify all the costs to...

Current Grey Cup ticket availability. Each available seat is marked in blue. In the witty words of Arash Madani - More blue dots than a Viagra convention:

Penalty. Red Team.

Piling On. 15 Yards and Carry On.

I would have thought your first source of motivation would have been the Argos two bankruptcies and the subsequent covert financing of the team by David Braley while Cynamon and Sokolowski were...

Ha ha ha. Just killed Blue Jays attendance yesterday evening, dinnit?

From first-hand accounts at BMO Field. All of 8 suites occupied today, not even 10,000 thru the turnstiles. And this with a...

Don't brand me a NFL fan. I enjoy the game, but I'm no fanatic. Only been to a handful of games in my life.

I have brought up points about how the NFL has involved Larry Tanenbaum and Assoc.'s to...

Vegas is a unique situation, but it does serve, to a small degree, to back up that argument.

Toronto isn't all that different. Plenty of people already are involved in a potential bid for the 2026...

Og, The Post-Count Hunter:

Everything the NFL is doing in London is counter to what you are saying.

They are showing a healthy regard for their audience by moving their future NFL operations...

This isn't about being a fan. It's about business.

The CFL in Toronto is not business. It's not even charity any more. It's a pathetic, perpetual pity fuck.

It's only going to be worse next...

Fans in Toronto were served up a bucket of shit and they didn't buy it. You make that sound like a bad thing.

We have an educated, nuanced NFL audience in Canada. Present the product to them...

Still Kicking: By your logic, the NFL shouldn't even contemplate playing games in London, let alone setting up a franchise there. Yet they have shown a thorough think-through with regards to how...

Bills owner Terry Pegula is on the record in stating he has no objection to a Toronto franchise joining the NFL. In fact, it's not hard to search out NFL commissioner Roger Goodell actually quoting...

Could be in the low, single-digit-thousands.

The Blue Jays are scheduled to play Game 4 of their ALDS match up with Texas Rangers on Monday.

It certainly looks like they're going about it the right way in London, with Tottenham Hotspur's new stadium designed to have a roll-out grass pitch set on top of a lower surface for the NFL turf....
