PTS just now. McGown and Brunt are confident........

Same. Couldn't be happier with the switch.

I had Rogers cable for a while but couldn't stomach it, so it was back to satellite. I would prefer to have cable, but we have no options other than Rogers. I miss watching Barre Colts games on the local cable station, and I really miss being able to watch CKCO (CTV Southern Ontario in Kitchener), which has the best local sports coverage of any station out there. OUA & OHL will be given priority over NFL & Blowjays.

Same. Couldn't be happier with the switch.

I have Bell TV and Bell cell. Would never consider Rogers because of there anti-CFL stance.
Friends are the same too.

[AngeloV]

I switched to Bell Fibe over a year ago, and love it. After years of having technicians from Rogers come over because my reception was horrible, and doing little towards a permanent fix, I have had absolutely no interruptions of service since I made the switch. Also paying about $50 a month less (over $100 a month for the first 6 months).

When will folks here stop whining. Braley is funding the team. Stuff is going on with MLSE and BMO ... just not on the timetable Argo fans are happy with. Rogers has said that they will not kick the Argos out of Skydome if they have nowhere else to go. (Plus the guys who want to kill the CFL also offered the Cats a place to play on a Tuesday night when it looked like Labour Day would not happen)

Paul Beeston said Rogers won't kick the Argos out for the duration of the current lease. And that could change since he may not be around after this year.

It was the opposite for me terrible quality and terrible customer service from Bell so I switched to Rogers and haven't had any problems and I'm paying less.

The Argonauts have a signed lease until the END of the 2017 season. They can't be kicked out before then. They can leave earlier if They choose to do so.

McCown and Friedman where really taking it to the Argo tonight around 18:45hours....laughing that Argo tickets are worth more than the team etc etc....folding, MLSE/BMO move are both dead....really annoying to listen to.

It's also Not true:

ARGOS REMAIN IN BMO FIELD PLANS

BMO Field will once again be one of the best places to play in Major League Soccer, MLSE CEO Tim Leiweke said.
But that doesn’t mean expansion plans won’t include the Toronto Argonauts one day.


“That’s a commitment that is a legal obligation to the city and the province,” Leiweke said of the CFL possibly coming to BMO Field. “We will honour that commitment.”


MLSE will be hosting a ground-breaking ceremony of sorts on Tuesday as construction to upgrade BMO Field is already under way.
“If you want to see a testament to the growth of MLS, go look at what our stadium was when it opened to what it is today,” Leiweke said. “We’ve fallen so far behind it’s shocking.”

Simply button pushing at its finest, who cares what they say!!

Friedman is probably still bitter that he lost his CFL hosting gig when the league moved away from CBC.

[Will]

I heard a different version of this than gil and that was that, yes, McCown was continuing his usual narrative, but that Friedman wasn't as hostile.

I Tweeted the Sun article at both of them. No response.

Lesson learned ..... again...... The BS is falling off the walls!
McGowan, Madani .... The rogers boys ...... They are slingers. They throw the BS and hope something sticks.
After these last 2 weeks, I'm not sure any of it has.
The practice facility is still under construction, but it's not going to be sub standard.
The team has the dollars it needs..... Otherwise how do they stay out west for the week?
The team also has good scouting out there.... Why would Huf pick up our QB release.
The team is better once some of their weapons return to the game.
That is why I always doubt these guys and don't even take it with an atom of salt. ..... And it holds true for much they say now. I doubt most of their reporting on other subjects .... Not saying it's always wrong but one just wonders if it's the BS that's going to stick or not.

Freidman was quite neutral I thought.

[argotom]

Why do we here continuously quote this idiot McClown and his Rogers sidekicks?

[gilthethrill]

Even when he was laughing about Braley having "100 offers" for the Argos? I found him unprofessional.

You know what you diehard Argo fans need to do? When Bobcat has a call-in show, you need to bombard his show with questions regarding ON field issues that pertain to the Argos.

Right on Cister ... tabloid-like BS.

Like it or not, he's the most influential guy on local sports radio.
