    More proof that the CFL needs the Argos. They drive ratings.
    It's us vs the rest of the country

    It would be interesting to compare Grey Cup ratings where Argos were involved versus games where they weren't.

    Agreed. Toronto is a big market, plus all the people who watch to cheer against the Argonauts.

    Although IIRC the Ottawa market isn't measured either.

    Argos are very important to the league. In 2012 GC they had 5.8 M tune in. Rumors were they made $10-$12 M from the game at Rogers center. Truly sad Rogers does help sell this team.
