I am sorry but being this upset about a broadcast on radio turning into a simulcast is an overreaction. It is the same situation as merchandise for the CFL in Toronto in stores which has been pointed out. We are all true double blue fans here but if there are not the ratings and sales in the case of merchandise then no business person would fill there store or radio station with this content.
Last year I bought 4 Argo items at the Adidas store at Yonge Dundas Square. I did that because I want to support the team and forfeited my season ticket discount. If it doesn't see it will not be stocked and if the ratings are not large enough changes need to be made. I cannot remember the year but there was a year or two when the Argos had no radio broadcasts at all... remember that! That was sad and that is something to be outraged about. I did not hear any mention that there would not be a pre and post game radio show.
What I don't like is the second there is change for whatever reason everyone want to jump off the good ship Argonaut. Hopefully progress will be made. The brand will be built up over the next few years. The stands will be full every game and merchandise will fly off the shelves. Until then these tough descisions need to be made and I think we shouldn't overreact. I watch most CFL game throughout the year on TV and rarely listen to them on the Radio. I do enjoy the post and pre game shows so I hope they have some version of this still on the radio.
