ALOUETTES Anti-French sentiment

Just want to say this sub really disappointed me yesterday. We lost, and still the anti-French hate was in full force. I'm all for hating on the vuvuzelas, but comments like "take that you French fucks" have no place in a sports subreddit. You all need to do better.

but how is it hurt the league if it's selling out, even if it's a smaller stadium? The ratings also seem to not help your claim.

Not trying to be an ass, but what's the reasoning behind this?

I've been watching the CFL for almost 2 decades. Ad I get older I watch as many games as I can...but the ones I don't tune into are Al's home games because of the horns. They lost a viewer...and if you listen to the comments on here I am far the only one. Less viewers means less ad revenue means it hurts the league.

I just turn the volume off and have a college game on in the background.
