    Again, I say, Rogers as a media corporation has a real hatred for Canadian football and the Argos specifically. They only want NFL and the big money that brings...
    I'd have to come up with better evidence, but sometimes I do wonder if Rogers shows as much hatred towards the CFL in other markets aside from Toronto?

    Probably not, they wouldn't be able to get away with it in other markets. Torontonians are special that way.

    Toronto is a distinct society within Canada.

    Yes a Canadian city where a large portion of the population claims to hate the USA but follows everything American.

    I think the only other Rogers sports radio station is in Calgary. I listen to the morning show and they talk some CFL but not as much as TV ratings shows it deserves. They don't hold back taking cheap shots at the CFL and have one host who has a I'm too cool for the CFL kind of attitude.
