    I second that.

    shame on the CFL for awarding the game to a city which simply can't support an event of this magnitude.

    ...and over on RF they want to have their club bid for the 2018 game...
    Yeah shame on the CFL for awarding the game to the strongest fanbase in the league.

    It should just be awarded to Toronto every year.

    So Regina making a crapload of money on an event that was "local" and not national proves the city cannot host the event?

    but then... merit means nothing to some people.
    By your logic, Sask should get the Grey Cup every year while Toronto should never get it again. Regina is small, nothing will change that, but no fan has earned hosting a Grey Cup more than a Sask fan has.

    I found this amusing:

    "What's in a name? The most intriguing item on this weekend's sports TV schedule is a mini-doc on the Toronto Maple Leafs entitled The Future is Bright. Sounds like the best fiction on TV this month. Saturday, 6:30 p.m. ET, TSN2."

    Ratings down plus attendance down for first batch of games. Let's hope it's a small hangover from the labour dispute that will dissipate.

    World Cup of soccer and two Canadians going deep at Wimbledon could be factors too.

    There are many different ways to quantify interest, obviously. The Google Trends data for searches of "CFL" within Ontario suggest that things are pretty stable:

    We also haven't seen the ratings for the Thursday night games, which I suspect have been the highest rated games. Also, we would have to compare the ratings from last summer at this time to this summer. I am guessing that the ratings increase as the season progresses and that the ratings so far this year are similar to last summer. For what it's worth, the CFL continues to beat the Blue Jays in the ratings race, despite the strong start of the baseball team this year.
    Cameron Dukes + Dan Adeboboye + Kevin Mital + David Ungerer + Damonte Coxie + DaVaris Daniels + Dejon Brissett = Unstoppable Force

    Huge factors I imagine, however with the World Cup consolation game a 4 PM EST and the game with the Stamps at 6:30 hopefully numbers rebound.

    Ratings are normally 600k in the summer and 800k in the fall.
    Given the game was a blowout... the average will fall during the game. As well, it was an afternoon game which usually get lower ratings.

    I'm not worried about ratings for games that go head to head with the World Cup, as the Toronto-Sask game did last weekend. But lower-than-expected ratings for evening games are troubling. A key indicator will be how the CFL does when its only direct competition is a Blue Jays game. The Jays are in a dive that doesn't seem likely to end anytime soon, so one would think they would not be a major ratings drag on the CFL.

    Funny how things are perceived, take out the Lions/Riders game and you think, hmm those numbers are a little down, hope that's not start of a trend. Look at it from the point of the Raptors or TFC and they think they've hit the jackpot.

    I can't understand why Rogers/MLSE might want to run this into the ground just to try and turn a Toronto NFL franchise into Canada's team. The CFL is already there and successful with a market that can only go up if MLSE turned their marketing magic on it. I don't get it.

    600,000 is a normal summer rating, usually 800,000 in the fall. But games have been dogs this season, blowout lead to trail-off in average ratings
    Jays seem a bit stronger this year, usually 300-400k.

    The CFL ratings were 1,2,3,4 most watched sports this week despite boring games:
    Alouettes at Lions, Saturday, TSN: 717,000
    Ticats at Stampeders, Friday, TSN: 692,000
    Argos at RedBlacks, Friday, TSN: 673,000
    Esks at Bombers, Thursday, TSN: 759,000


    Argos destroyed the Blue Jays 673,000 to 511,000 on Friday. TFC drew flies again for its games
