Around the League: 2019 Off Season
Anybody else thinking that there are going to be issues with this whole Atlantic Schooners idea? Leblanc doesn't have a great track record (see Ice Edge), they need a lot of government money and the local governments seem fairly reluctant to give any, not a lot of corporations and hey, what exactly is the evidence that they'll support a team?

I've asked it many times but I'll ask again, how does Rod Black stay employed?

In terms of the Bills in Toronto series, while I know there are many NFL fans in Toronto, that doesn't mean that they're Bills fans. I too anecdotally know many NFL fans, this might draw better than we think.

Personally not interested. Not sure how well this would sell here.

I agree that the GOP is lost, agree that they have to get back to doing what is best for the people, not sure the Dems are significantly better (see Green New Deal).

I really do wonder if we go 3 Canadian receivers this year. Draft will be a tip off I suppose.

Roughly 14.1 million people in Ontario and 1.3 million in Saskatchewan. I have a hard time believing Pederson's reporting.

Anybody else see the piece about the Raiders possibly doing an exhibition game at Mosaic? Isn't it bad enough those guys have to live in Oakland?

Around the League: 2019 Off Season
Well, others have pretty much stated it. Essentially he wants the league to begin to have more of an international focus in order to increase viewership both around the world and in Canada. So they have begun to reach out to these football federations in order to build partnerships (not like the NFL going in and dictating but an actual partnership). The thought is that the best of their players will eventually play in the CFL and that Canadians who can't make the CFL will end up in those leagues.This will led to other venue streams from these nations which will increase the league's revenue. As well, he mentioned the differences in markets across the league. His belief is that places like Toronto with some many first and second generation Canadians are more attracted to leagues they view as international in nature.
