    And the Leafs are 3rd, which tells you all you need to know about this poll.

    True. It's attached to an Raptors article so that's going to increase the Raptors numbers.

    The Argos lack of constant quality marketing has hurt them in a huge way. I for one don't give a crap about social media but we need a new owner who gets all the ducks in a row. Top office staff including marketing on social media, tv, radio and whatever other means possible. The Raptors followers who jam downtown are basically young folks looking for a fun night and party atmosphere. The Argos right now are a DEAD ZONE!

    I have to agree with that to a degree.
    Mostly younger demographics who tend to be "hip" and ill informed.
    The ones doing the man on the street interview and who could not spell cat even if you spotted the c and the t!
    The bandwagon type as well.

    It's definitely not for everyone but it can be an effective tool to reach the younger demographic.

    The Argos are now in first place with a healthy lead of over 200 votes.

    I got this message
    "We have received too many votes from you. You will be unblocked after a cooling off period."

    Mission accomplished?

    Then I hit "View Results" and this message popped up, "We have detected suspicious activity on this poll. Please try again later."

    Now....mission accomplished.

    Argos were at about 34% of the vote at the time.

    You manipulated the results of a pointless poll. Are Argos ticket/merchandise sales, etc. going to increase as a result? What exactly has been accomplished?

    I'm relaxed. If someone wants to manipulate a pointless poll that's their prerogative. Personally I see that as an even more pointless waste of time than fun as it accomplishes nothing, just my opinion.

    Just some fun messing with a media outlet that refuses to acknowledge the Argos exist.

    But if the Argos had finished a solid 4th in the survey, with about 15% of respondents calling them their favourite team, it might have made someone at the Star think twice about ignoring them completely. If anything, blowing the poll up probably makes Argo fans look even more fringe in the eyes of the Star editors.

    It looks like Toronto FC fans got the same idea because they are now in third place ahead of the Jays and Leafs.
