    What else did you expect? Nevertheless, the wait for Godot has ended; the impossible dream has been achieved.

    I suspect Rogers(as part of mlse) pulled the trigger on that deal, just to deflate the Argo's news. Anything to harrass the CFL.

    That said...nice move by the Leafs

    Me too. Same ole, same ole when it comes to the Toronto media and Argonauts coverage. Is there anywhere that we can still get live coverage? I wanted to see the coverage continue from the field.

    Interesting that David Braley will be the owner for the balance of 2015, then transfer ownership on december 31st 2015.

    wonder why this is happening?

    The new guys don't want to cover the losses this year.

    I have it on pretty good authority that the person who actually blued that picture forgot to omit the recolouring from the Canadian flag #oops

    Brave of Norm to tweet that; TFC fans are piling on the abuse.

    Finally and I'm actually feeling excited about things. Will be nice to have covered stands at least.

    Nice to have the big Argo news highjacked. Babcock is a great coach but this has to be for the money because he won't be coaching a talented team like Detroit has had for the last 20 years.

    So Argo fans have to endure the 2015 season under Braley & his no spending policy? Please say that is not so.....

    Yeah, we just have to survive this season but at least the future is bright after this one. I have to give credit to Ron as he has been saying all along that any new owners would not assume ownership until the Argos were out of SkyDome.

    Well that's what MLSE has said all along, that they would not own the Argos as a "stand-alone" property.

    The question that nobody has asked yet is what happened to the $20M that was needed to convert BMO to CFL. Can we all safely assume that Bell ponied up the cash?

    Braley said at the presser that he would be "working closely" with Tannenbaum and Bell throughout the season to make sure things are done the way they want them before taking over the team.

    I liked when he said every Argo game will be sold out next year. Well, why not?

    I can't deny that I felt the same way he did, especially with the troll job Dave Shoaltz pulled, so in a way I'm glad he voiced his opinion on it, but at the same time maybe it shouldn't have come from him. That's something the fans should have voiced their opinion on.

    I watched it and was impressed by all who gave the good party lines.
    In particular, I was very impressed by John Tory with his performance.
    Again, that idiot in the presser who had to bring up the stupid Leafs.

    Foley may get in trouble for his inclusion of the word "foreigner" in one of the tweets, but I understand the general theme he was touching on with the tweets and do agree with the overall sentiment.
