Against all odds, they are even more attractive to buy now.

And if it takes more time to get the Bronfmans involved, I say take your time.

Oh I have no doubt that the Alouettes will be sold, but I just don't think the pauper Lenkov brothers as "majority" owners is the answer. And to put it mildly, I think Ambrosie is a joke of a Commissioner. You clearly think differently, so I'll just agree to disagree.

I'd like to know how people in these forums seem to know the exact wealth of others ie being "paupers". Another example of this is Gary Drummond of the Schooners, I've read he is very wealthy but I don't know if that is true or not. One matter of public record I do know is he donated one million to the Univ of Regina.

The CFL is no longer a mom and pop ownership league, it takes a lotta shekels to get and stay in the club.

Anthony LeBlanc is interviewed about the future of the his Halifax franchise bid in the url below. He remains optimistic, which of course is to be expected, but I will believe it when it happens.
