    I'm interested to see how much stronger ratings and attendance numbers are in June, July, and August compared to September, October, and November (minus playoffs and the Grey Cup). Ratings go up in September and I've yet to see an increase of empty seats during the Fall.

    Len Rhodes is probably the worst example to make your point Neely. The Eskimos used to average over 38,000 just before he got there, and now they barely manage 30k. Also, IIRC he took over $100k from the football budget one year to bring in half time shows.

    I'm with you on this 100%. IMO, it would be a colossal failure to move it up 4-6 weeks.
    It's us vs the rest of the country
