    I could watch this game but have chosen not to. Glad I'm not judging by the angry posts here. We lost this series all the way back when fans in Winnipeg were chanting, "Pull the goalie" in game 1.  Just arrogance thinking we had the series in the bag & the first game wasn't even finished yet. I think it fired up the Avs.

    I think in 10 to 15 years the CFL will be no more. There appears to be no growth possibilities. Especially with the Commissioner we have now. When it's 2024 & he biggest growth was the merger of the WIFU & IRFU to form the 9 team CFL in 1958 then things don't look great. Every other pro league have grown exponentially since. We may be the last generation of fans who care.

    Yeah, gonna make our annual football trek into Winnipeg in September from Friday to Monday that weekend. Looks like the Banjo Bowl is close to being sold out based on what the Bomber Ticket Office was telling me on Friday.

    I just hope NBC renews Law & Order; Organized Crime. 
    NCIS Hawaii? Go woke & go broke. I can do without the lesbian love affair on a police procedural.

    Help me out here, the Seattle Kraken are going to streaming their games next season. First NHL team to do that. Why can't the CFL try to get on a sports streaming network like DAZN or Amazon?? I assume if they did, people all over the world could watch CFL games if they subscribe. Why can't they stream internationally while having games on TSN in Canada?  Just asking as I don't know how this works. If it's TSN who are the rightsholder, then **** them. maybe the CFL has to negotiate two tv deals. One for TSN & the other for international streaming. To me, that's where any future revenue growth would be.

    So he'll never get into the CFHOF. Lemon will be 65 & crying to get in & it won't help as no one will care. His choice to be stupid & ruin his chances.

    When Big Blue started talking about giving players expansion money, I just shook my head. There is NO expansion money!! Maybe putting a team in Halifax might give the CFL a slightly bigger tv deal but I wouldn't be surprised if a 10th team made no difference. There's a chance that the next deal with TSN may not be worth as much.

    Let’s be real too, they don’t have owners a stadium or a market for expansion. If any thing if the league tries to shoe horn  a team on the coast it’ll cost the league and every team. 

    What was it, 3 teams over the cap this last year? Average of 100k with a dollar for dollar penalty? 200k right there. Teams just stopped handing the top fa wr 300k but started giving bananas money to ni ol. They could spend it ni doubt.
     Some teams didn’t spend the cap and some lost money either way. 250k isn’t making a big change. They could just use that money to bump up pr money and or spots. No team would be against that

    Sometimes you just overthink. Like here with this. For example, why would teams dress extra Canadians just for home games? They'd never play so why even pay them??? We dress 45 players now so dressing more makes no sense.
    Expansion money? For what new team, exactly? Where would you expand? Halifax? C'mon, if that city wanted a team there'd have beeen a team there with a proper stadium yeras ago. Quebec City or London, Ontario? Remains to be seen. poersonally, I doubt it.
    And how much will an expansion team fetch? Five to ten million? What's that divided over 9 teams? That's $555,000 to $1.1 million per team. Hey, nice little one time windfall but it'll just be swallowed up in losses by 8 of the 9 teams now. If we're expanding to create extra money then that's laughable as it'll make little difference financially in the long run. You seem to have this penchant for trying to start these super serious discussions. Like we'll suddenly solve the league's problems at once. The CFL is what it is. Just enjoy it.
