  • Now to get Brandon Banks on an off - season program that will give him the cardio needed when he's targeted 3 times in a row...

  • I still think with a different OC, Streveler could be a top tier QB in this league. 

  • We must never mess with the 'Rouge' - it may serve no real purpose but most importantly it is not American and it confuses the **** out of Americans... therefore it is critically important to the Cana

So just to recap... the Argos go over the salary cap and not only do they not get fined/penalized but they get rewarded with an extra territorial pick...

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?

“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.

That would be the prudent thing to do.

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.

I doubt there's another league as reliant on gate revenues...

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

They said the same thing to me a few weeks ago when they called. I think it has more to do with holding onto our money for as long as possible, which makes sense to me.
