the stamps 2 victories were meaningless   ... I  still think they fight with the Riders for the basement

toronto has enough talent to still win without a QB: special teams + decent D

I heard they were down around 3500 this season, don't know if that's true.  All those filthy rich oil companies making bank and they can't sell corporate tickets???

Nothing communist about private sector funding. Need more of that across the board.

What an embarrassment that will be for the CFL. Hosting the premier event at a stadium that looks like it's been abandoned by an American High school team.

Perhaps part of it is hope they do some Renos by then. You can put lipstick on the pig for 1 game.

 No you see all the cost and risk must be public,  it's only profit that is private. 

You're correct, you must be a bloody commie

A new coat of red and white paint is about all they'll do, paint the entire stadium in stripes to dazzle the eye and hide the cracks.

Yup get those 'skilled' expert house flippers on this. They know what to do.

Like I said, communism is good. Here's my pamphlet. 🙂

The butt grooves in the benches at McMahon are simply not sufficiently sized

I was at the Grey Cup in 2019 and I wasn't impressed with the size of the seats. 

Hardly any room to move your arms if bigger bodies are sitting beside each other.

Calgary Sports & Entertainment Corporation (CSEC owned by Murray Edwards) said there's be no renos or improvements done. What an embarassment. Ambrosie & the BOG's gave the Grey Cup to them as the league knows they'll have only a couple of thousand season ticket holders after this year & the owner's refusal to fire Dickenson.  They can't market the team anymore. People refuse to buy tickets. 

Playing the Grey Cup at McMahon is like the Super Bowl being played at Franklin Field in Philly.

Oh for sure. The Stamps can't sell tickets anymore. No one wants to go to the games except the die hards which is shrinking every year. This off season, thousands are going to cancel their renewals so the Grey Cup was gifted. You & I know that, 17to85. I find it interesting that no one in the media or on social media has said that. Like, the fact no one cares about the Stamps is just being ignored. 

Rigmaiden would be a good GM but anybody taking over BC has a challenge with those 2 QB contracts + trying to bring back Betts among other issues.

If I'm Amar Doman, I'd give the GM job to Ringmaiden & take it away the "Co GM' title from Campbell. The way he coached the Lions I'd not trust Campbell to be able to do both the HC & GM's job. The qb position became a clusterfuck & never had to be. That was Campbell's fault. He's lucky Doman never canned him.
