The only time I've seen CFL jerseys on the street in Toronto was back in 2007 when ya'll had the Grey Cup and a whole bunch of Winnipeg and Saskatchewan fans were in town. All the Torontonians I spoke with didn't give a fukk about the game.
The Alouettes have fallen behind the Impact in terms of popularity here, even Expos gear is more popular despite the team being gone since 2004. The league is a fukkin mess. Only 9 teams and every year it seems like some team with a 6-10 record makes the playoffs. It can't cost that much to get a CFL franchise, why not add more teams in places like Halifax, Quebec City, London, Windsor, and Saskatoon(Sask could support a second team in the province). In the last 6-7 years, Ottawa has had 3 different franchises, the RoughRiders, Renegades, and now the Red Blacks. What a disgrace. I'd rather watch women's ringuette than the CFL.

My condolences breh. I haven't had to go to any funerals in Barbados, pretty much all my older relatives live in Canada, USA, and England now. My grandmother still has a house in Christ Church though, I always stay there whenever I go. It's only a short drive from Bridgetown too.

i agree 110%
i dont know why they dont expand the games, i know they had some games in moncton i think it was and they sold out, the salary cap is what 2 mill or 2.5 mill, the tv deal gives each teams decent amount of money, cfl actually gets the highest ratings outside of hockey, but its outside of major popularity cities.
i havent been to a cfl game since i was like 7, yet ill drive down to buffalo to watch college football or a nfl game.
theres only 8 teams 6 make hte playoffs

14 teams would be ideal. Most places that already have a junior hockey team can probably support a CFL team since both leagues are on par popularity wise in this country.
East: Montreal, Toronto, Ottawa, Hamilton, Quebec City, Moncton, Halifax
West: BC, Calgary, Edmonton, Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Winnipeg, and some other Western town like Red Deer, Alberta or Kelowna, BC
at the Argos gettin salty about Rob Ford wearing their jersey today, they should be grateful for all the pub they can get.

Just drove up Yonge street (2amish) from my condo to pick up my PS4 from the seller who's at Yonge/Eglinton. Sometimes I forget how nice our city is. So many shops I haven't noticed too. Crazy how quiet and peaceful it can be, before the rukus starts back up at 7am.
That's my T.O.
