    Argos and Pinball Foundation make a kind and generous gesture

    Kudos to all concerned, and especially Mike Hogan, for this. It was a great thing to do, and had the added benefit of generating reams of fabulous, positive publicity for the Argos. Nice to see Hogie on CBC's The National!

    Yes, great story last night. The Argos Face Mask sure helped. But, great gesture to a young guy whose an Argos fan for life if he already was not one. Very, very cool. Go Argos 2021!! Victory awaits.

    That is so awesome that they did this and yes, always good for the Argos to get good publicity. The thing is, they've always been the team most involved in the community even when no one is watching and this was not a publicity stunt.

    Great job Argonauts, on the flip side shame on the imbecile(s) that thought a stunt like this would be funny.

    As I said in a different thread I can't think of any other sports organization that is more involved in the community. Well done.

    Great to see the Argos and the Pinball foundation do this. When I read about what happened, it really pissed me off. I seriously hope someone at St Mary lost their job over this at the very least. It's criminal to allow something like this to happen.
    It's us vs the rest of the country
