@Dylanlow27@LWillson_82 This deal wouldn't be as large as it is if they thought these changes were going to destroy the league the way those in your camp are predicting. Losing money year after year was destroying the league. It will be more marketable outside of Canada next year.
@Dylanlow27@LWillson_82 Ask Dazn, Youtube, and TSN. They gave the the CFL their largest media deal by a lot AFTER the changes were announced. They seem to think there is an upside to these changes over the next 6 years.
@RepoleStable@TheUFL Mr. Repole, love the energy you've brought to the league. Please consider Portland an expansion city. We had the Breakers back 1985 and we averaged 19k attendance in a 32k stadium. Our highest was 25k. We're about to lose the Blazers. We NEED pro sports!
@Milajoy Vanity project? Like Obama tearing up the White House for a basketball court? Who was THAT for? But they hate REAL improvements like the ballroom that IS needed for major functions, and a clean relecting pool? These people are the enemy within.
@CFL_Today I've thought the reason the CFL is changing it's rules and field dimensions, goal post placements is to set the stage for a future merger with the UFL. 8 of 9 teams making the playoffs is ridiculous, but 8 of 18 isn't.
@LWillson_82 Your original take on the new playoff format was correct no matter how much respect you might have for the guy who signs your paychecks. 8 of 9 teams making the playoffs is as stupid as winning games by missing FG's.
@kurt13warner@RamsNFL The ONLY reason there are still arena football leagues is because of Kurt Warner. His story and success legitimized the concept. All of the players in those leagues have him in the back of their minds.
@canucklehead_7@ticatsroar@1CFLAtt The BC Lions averaged over 40k in the 1980's. That's like making 50k/yr. then a few years later making 30k/yr. Then the year after that making 31k/yr. and calling it "growth." BTW the difference between '24 and '25 was less than 1%. Zero growth.
@ticatsroar@canucklehead_7@1CFLAtt You've actually just made my point. The Lions can't fill half of their stadium, but geriatric rappers can fill it completely. Can't count '22 due to Covid. 8% increase between '23-'25. Seeing this as growth is why the CFL is going under.
