I cannot comment on the appropriateness of Lamport (I see comments that the place is a dump) and I know that ship has sailed many years ago. but I don't dislike the idea of a compact stadium. just...
I like your thought on field dimensions. I was just thinking that if the CFL ever tried US expansion again they should have those dimensions as an option. opens up the small MLS stadiums as...
It would be great for the CFL to create more labour day-like events, so maybe try for a T.O. Canada Day game.
I also think the ticket strategy of CFL teams in the bigger centres has to follow...
before the move to BMO I thought tiny Lamport Field might've made for a cool niche stadium option. it's only 10k, but thought maybe extending the stands the full length of the field would get them...
I agree with you on the endzone size. and I actually like the slight variation (preferred the variation we saw in old NHL rinks).
I think that Toronto just hosted a couple years ago is a consideration for people that travel for grey cup. in talking to the people i know who travel for grey cups i hear that they were just there...
In Winnipeg they opted to not build the temporary seating at one end and build an elevated halftime stage

Awesome! As a westerner this is great to see. Super excited that all the eastern teams have great looking venues. It's great to see the type of game day activities the Argos are pumping out. I...

on the plus side, at least it will be open air!
this sounds so much better than MLSE to me. no reluctant bride (Rogers) to complicate decision-making. Bell owning the team with the strength to heavily promote the team through its broadcasting...

Long ago. But didn't Molson have a tree growing in the stands when Montreal moved back in?
Yes. And Seems like if they're going to spend a bunch of cash then maybe it would be better to spend it to retrofit a site like Lamport, which could accommodate a 22k horseshoe configuration and has...
not really, all you really need is a not-for-profit with a community focus. Winnipeg is set up as a not-for-profit with a BOD comprised of community interests / members are their BOD and are also...
One of he recent stories suggested the Argos could be flipped to a community ownership model. What are the thoughts around here for such a model - could it work? would you prefer a private owner? ...
