    thanks, eh. Despite all the weirdness and difficulty getting people out, we had fun. THF is actually a pretty good setup bandwise, it's a shame the Ticats don't have their own band any more.

    I think we had the largest per-capita CFL pep band in history. 25 in the band, 3,741 in the crowd; one band member for each 150 spectators. Saskatchewan's band will need 200 or more people to beat that at their next home game :-)

    High per-capita band music is my second favourite genre!

    As per Dave Naylor prior to last night's game and it was also mentioned by Gordon Miller during the game, the new Argo ownership are giving the team and it's families a tour of BMO field today. 45 players signed up. A great gesture and IMO just a taste of the fine ownership this team will bring starting in January.

    Hopefully this will give the team a psychological lift as they head into next Friday's big game.

    Nice to hear that this new ownership group has a pulse when it comes to the Argos! But these guys are going to need to do a lot more work then just to open a door to a building that ml$e built for me to pat them on there back. Dont think for a second that these owners can just snap there fingers come July and expect a decent crowd to see the Argos play.I hope the last couple of weeks of crowds of 3,400 and 3,700 at thf opened some eyes to realize how much damage this team is really in.

    I really don't think that you have to worry about this, Rocket. Both Bell and Tanenbaum will be highly-motivated to make the Argos a success. I suspect that you will see a marketing campaign like you haven't seen since at least the early 1990s around the Argos next season and for years to come.

    Yes I do hope you are right! I will be holding my fingers crossed for that to happen. Not to impressed on how they are just waiting tell January to take over the team then wait tell who knows when with a marketing campaign. Some of this stuff should be worked out as this season was going on.

    It's my observation, from the press conference and previous negotiations, that this group does not get along with the current ownership and want to distance themselves as far as possible. It's probably best, they wait until they are actual owners before truly going forward with the team. No Braley, no legality and no Rogers fiasco to deal with. The team is all theirs and every decision can be made with no permission from, or money going to anyone else.

    That sounds great and should also help keep some of the dozens of guys who would want to bail on Toronto after this year. Perhaps some might see the light at the end of the tunnel.

    I am sitting in Sun Life Stadium watching Miami Dolphins lead Houston by 41 - 0 at half time 48 hours after Hamilton.What is with the one sided games I am attending this week? Houston looks like they stole a page from the Argos Friday night game.
