    Sure, go back to the overspending from the early 90's and see the league almost fold again. I'd love to see guys in the league make more money, but to think they can pay millions to designated players is just not living in reality. But, I'll leave the banking knowledge to you.

    Very progressive.

    You're dealing with professional sports ownership now. The 90s were an aberration.

    Randy Ambrosie was brought in to try new, modern approaches. His job is to increase business value, fan experience and in doing so could bring CFL wages into the modern era.

    New ownership across the league should bring the CFL more In line with their other franchise businesses. I see MLSE and Toronto very important now. Higher wages should follow.

    Ricky is coming back to win his 5th GC - which i think would be the most all-time for QB of record in the big game?

    Damon Allen had 4 (2 with the Esks + BC + Argos).

    The (IMO) all-time big 3 of CFL QBs - Jackson, Moon & Flutie - all had 3 GC wins (Moon was also on those 78 & 79 Esks dynasty teams, and did play in the 79 game); but they did not play in the league as long as Damon Allen or Ricky.
