    Raise your hand if your greed and pettiness helped your former team's biggest rival end the league's longest drought a season later.

    I like having posters from other teams. I don't get why some of you get so butt hurt over it. Other teams have good players/seasons. It's ok to acknowledge it. DOesn't take anything away from our team

the team that likely appreciates Canadian Content more than any other has been in the last 3 GC games, won 2 out of 3, and was a fluke away from winning 3 in a row. That should be the template for every team in the league. CanCon matters....

A Canadian player (Robbie Smith) also got the Argos their GC win.  That coach needs to go have a cup of STFU.

    Nope that ain't it. I am a contrarion on this point and several others. That's not the same a a bad faith arguement.  

    Bad faith arguments are based in deception & hypocrisy. My argument is based on facts that I believe. It doesn't hide a hidden agenda or mean something that I didn't say. That's where some of you consistantly get it wrong. I say A you complain about B that you think I'm really talking about. That's a bad faith arguement. 

    As someone who likes to poke the bear over at the political forum for kicks, I can get part of what you are saying. However, just like the political forum arguments, assuming what you believe to be fact is bad faith arguing in itself. Opinions, and belief in them, does not make them factual. Fact of the matter, is that most of us don't know all the facts on most matters....but what fun would a forum be if most people were self aware enough to realize that.

    I make an statement. Dipshit complains about something I didn't say. I point that out. Dipshit calls that an accuasation. I restate my opinion. Dipshit calls it arguing in bad faith. I correct him. Dipshit says I'm lying (That's what I'm sorry I don't believe you means). I say that makes you wrong and point out that he in fact is the one who is arguing in bad faith. I let Dipshit have the last word. Dipshit 2 tries to bring me back in with 'Why are you appologizing to that guy'. I ignore it. You come in the next day or is it the day after to try and start it back up again. :wacko: 

    Assuming that what you believe are facts is different than basing what you believe on facts.

    There are less than a 100 active posters on this forum especially in the off season. We are the uber fans. We are the one's who would watch a pre-season game that our team isn't in. Assuming that all teams have similar groups of uber fans & that all of them would watch, that's less than 1000 fans across the country. Add in those who would watch their own team's away pre-season game and we're at a few thousand. 

    TSN isn't making money on pre-season games & likely losing money. While not a fact, it's based on the above.

    TSN can just put on something they already own and make more money in the timeslot. Fact.

    When I had seasons tickets in Wpg, BC and Cgy, I couldn't give away the pre-season tickets because no one wanted them. 

    Playing pre-season games on TV won't do anything to increase the CFL fan base. Based on the the above fact. 

    Defn: "A bad faith argument is an inauthentic argument. By this, we don’t necessarily mean a factually incorrect argument. Rather, an argument that the arguer doesn’t believe in themselves. Common Bad Faith Arguements: "Ad hominem attacks
    Straw man claims, Red herring arguments, Appeals to ignorance, Appeals to authority, Slippery slope arguments".
