    I disagree. I think a “big bad Argos” would help the league. In the west and Hamilton, it’ll only ramp up the hate. If we were able to spend big, have a good team that was seen as having an...

    I watch most of the games on tv and attend 1 a year, Toronto has a huge issue when it comes to people saying you can only be a fan of one team. And yes, TFC fans are guilty of that too. All fanbases...

    The CFL has a whole is in trouble. Even Regina has scores of empty seats.
    This market simply will not buy into a minor league team. The NFL is a far bigger beast than it was 40 years ago when the...

    CFL ownership is stable now, but that can all change quickly. The issue is noone seems to be making an effort. Was at the game Saturday on the east stand and it appeared many people were there on...

    The high school idea is kinda cool.
    Mlse doesnt want to own the Argos. It was a favor to TSN and political pressure because literally noone else was going to step up.
    Thing is theyve tried all the...

    Obv Ricky was a bust. But if he didn't break his arm, he'd have sold some tickets. People were talking about the Argos. Canadian players don't sell tickets, and the US players aren't high profile....

    Issue is mlse took on the argos as a political favor. The Argos need more of a community owner, run it like a minir league team, cheap tix food parking, promotions, etc. The only hope is to bring out...

    Gambling wise (its legal now so i guess we can mention it), the game was textbook CFL. First half under. High scoring 2nd half. At one point, in game WPG was +8.5! You could've bet the house. Grey...

    TFC played in front of friends and family tonight. I think MLSE assumed there would be some huge demand for fans to return, and really missed the market.
