A place where Argofans can talk

The Caretaker cares deeply about his team and it's place in their community. I love watching the Argos beat the TiCats, but I wish our ownership had that same passion. I firmly believe if we did attendance and interest wouldn't be a problem. The first step is as simple as appointing Clemons President. His passion for everything Argo runs as deep as Bob Youngs.ARGO57 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 18, 2025 6:46 pmThe Tiger Cats do a ton of good work in the Hamilton community and have fostered a fabulous relationship with their fan base.ARGOFanIan wrote: ↑Wed Mar 12, 2025 7:28 am Thought They did a spectacular job on the recent Hammer Grey Cup.

Hate to say but I am often jealous of the Ticats. They have an effective Team store, They are primary tenant at their stadium. Their owner is extremely focused on the team. They seem to do things like let the fans walk on the field post game, draft parties etc...I think Ticat Web media is quite good and extensive.
The fans are extremely passionate... I like the atmosphere at the stadium... but I am semi uncomfortable with wearing my ARGO stuff there.
I think you have to be a Ticat fan or and ARGO fan to really appreciate the rivalry.
Grey cup is great but a season is not a complete success unless we also win the Ballard cup... but thats just me... Hopefully we can fix that this year.
Go ARRGOS
As you stated they have an owner who is committed to the wellbeing of the franchise and market the team very well.
Every time I attend a Ticat game with my son we visit the in stadium store which is well stocked with Ticat merchandise, BMO Field should have been designed with the same type of in stadium store for both tenants.
That might be the first step, but it's not the biggest step. The biggest step would then be opening the money tap a bit and giving the President some capital to spread around. Pinball's enthusiasm and passion can only go so far.Scooter McCray wrote: ↑Wed Mar 19, 2025 2:58 pmThe Caretaker cares deeply about his team and it's place in their community.

I love it, Ryan. Just imagine if we could get AI to spruce up EVERY post on Argofans!bluto wrote: ↑Tue Mar 18, 2025 8:40 amRichK wrote: ↑Tue Mar 18, 2025 2:27 am How slim are their chances of ending their cup drought this year? Does anyone really believe BLM has another championship season in him? If you were a GM and you could choose any current CFL QB to be your starter, where would BLM fall on your wish list? Can he even lead them to the playoffs?
You've misinterpreted the jist of this thread... I'll ask AI to rephrase your post for you...
The Hamilton Tiger-Cats technically have a shot at ending their Grey Cup drought this year—after all, miracles do happen. And hey, Bo Levi Mitchell does have a championship pedigree… even if it’s been gathering dust for a while. If CFL GMs could draft any quarterback to lead their team, BLM would surely make the list… somewhere. But hey, if he can just stay healthy and get them to the playoffs, that alone would be a comeback story worth celebrating.
