I would, if it meant no more Rod Black. Apparently we are losing Chris Cuthbert to hockey. Damn,

Rest of the league subsidizes their losses while they pay Jim Popp $600k a year... got it. I looked at that article and I couldn’t see how much over the cap they were. Did I miss that or was it not listed?

June 14, 20205 yr comment_477881 “The CFL franchise cost to operate is somewhere between $25 to $30 million per year, multiply that by nine it is about $250 million to fund each of the clubs on a yearly basis, that would be my estimate. So if you’re asking for $150 million, it’s a reasonable ask,” Smith said on CTV Ottawa.https://3downnation.com/2020/06/13/former-cfl-commissioner-larry-smith-150-million-its-a-reasonable-ask/
June 14, 20205 yr comment_477900 Can someone post the Bombers operating expenses as I'd really like to know if it's as high as Smith says...

Well you'd be a fool not to learn from other experiences, however I wonder if they aren't waiting too long to copy cat another league rather than working on their own strategy in the meantime. It's a time to be proactive and yes things are constantly changing, but you gotta have some kind of plan that gets updated regularly... That's what every other business and institution is doing right now.

They are probably waiting for some way to make Toronto work as a hub city... however Bombers did just call and say they are expecting a season starting in September
June 17, 20205 yr comment_478070 there will be NO season this year and the players are making the decision for the glue-head commish

I think it has more to do with holding onto our money for as long as possible, which makes sense to me. I converted my credit into a Bomber Store gift card.
