    With Rogers now letting us know where they stand perhaps some of us should let them know how we feel. Feel free to distribute.

    All I can say is, their actions against the Argos and Canadian football in general have gone from obnoxious to downright perverse. I've never heard of an organization obsessively going out of its way to stop something while having absolutely nothing to gain from it. If anything, trying to sink the Argos is costing them. The more I think about it, the more twisted it seems. I want to know who the deranged monsters behind all of this are.

    That's about as polite as I can possibly put it, and I feel like I'm going to explode.

    Toronto Life wrote a cover story on all the drama at Rogers corporate headquarters and one of the central themes to the piece was how Rogers became, "the most loathed company in Canada."

    Ya, because Rogers has never done anything questionable:

    http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/ro...says-1.1258560

    http://www.theglobeandmail.com/repor...ticle23468215/

    As for calling Ted Rogers "just an executive," I didn't. Either you have issues with reading comprehension or your putting words in my mouth. I was taking issue with the 12 foot bronze statue of him standing outside of Rogers Centre. That thing belongs at Rogers Headquarters not outside Rogers Centre in my opinion. The fact there is a statue of Ted Rogers there before Joe Carter is really messed up. The bottom line, both companies have some very questionable business practises. Like I said before one is negatively impacting the CFL and the Argos so that puts the other a little bit higher (not much) in the plus column in my books. Also, I'm not a Bell or Rogers costumer.

    In my book, that puts Rogers off the charts in the minus column and if this forum is an Argos supporter group, then Rogers is no friend of ours.

    You're free to hate Rogers as much as you want but don't go speaking for others. Not everything is black and white. I'm not a fan of Rogers business practices or what they are doing regarding the CFL or the Argos. As a Jays fan I can't say Rogers has been a bad owner for that team though. If Neely2005 is a fan of Rogers that's his prerogative. His claim that Bell's business practices are that much better than Rogers' though is ridiculous. Both companies do pretty much the same thing. There really is no competition between Bell or Rogers, costumers of their phone, internet, and TV services are getting equally screwed.

    I was getting screwed way worse with Rogers. I was paying more and getting worse service. My cable would go down at least once a month and had service guys come over at least twice a year with no improvement. In my now almost 3 years with Bell, I have not been without TV reception yet. I also get 4 HD receivers with PVR for the same amount that I was paying for 1 with Rogers. CFL fan or not, my experience with the 2 services isn't close.
    It's us vs the rest of the country

    Rogers have been great owners for the Jays, not so much for Jays fans though.

    Rogers need our support.

    Can everybody please stop criticizing Rogers. Their baseball team is about to go on a grueling one week road trip.

    HUG ROGERS!!!

    I was thinking of putting a bristol board sized note on him that says "Return to Rogers Headquarters" and the address. That is where the statue should be.
