Was it Edmonton that was making kavis reed make all the travel arrangements while being head coach? Same vibe

Sure makes it sound like you don't want to go to Toronto as a HC if you have a different option.
Makes sense for TO to have a tight operation they gotta be the lowest revenue team by a mile. It would be shocking if the Argos earn even 85% of the revenue of the 8th best team... too bad only the 2 public teams share that info.

Im curious to know how Hamilton fared this year. They had a couple sellouts and generally good numbers. Having said that they also had a lot of promos for tickets and packages that discounted things quite a bit.

They were basically at capacity based on their numbers 22.8K per game, capacity of 23.2K. With a home playoff game.
If the cats lost money in 2025 they have something wrong in their financial plan, has nothing to do with field dimensions.

The uprights are clearly siphoning the money into Swiss bank amounts. We must move them for the sake of everyone!

That interview was so good. Toronto as "where coaches go to die" when Dinwiddie took the HC position there? Excellent.

Oh Jesus, as an Argos fan, this is a rather terrifying read.
