The Edmonton Elks (hate that name) are also community owned and has been since the 1940's. They have a board of Directors as I suspect Sask. does as well.
CFL 2021
- Thread starter petros
- Start date
CFL didn't need the money. They were just trying to see if they could get it. When they say they lost $ 60 - 80 million in 2020 they are talking lost profits.
CFL has almost run its course with the out dated policies and the clear conflict with the television / radio/ and internet rights holder. The chairman of the CFL board also sits on MLSE board and is employed by Bell Media. CFL will never open their books. Basically it is in house programing.
I mentioned before about not recognizing player contracts while all management and coaching deals are carved in stone. Collective agreement is up after this year. I will be surprised if the players take any more cuts.
As far as the coast to coast it will never work with the time zones. Last nights game would have been starting at 11 pm in Halifax.
Omaha, Louisville, Tulsa, Oklahoma City among many others would be great 3 down football cities and the players association should be open to an agreement if one can be made. Bottom line on that imo is the NFL likes 4 downs and what they have going. They are not looking for competition.
And yet everyone is glad that the CFL is back but what they are really glad about is seeing the players play. I fail to understand how they do not give them the credit they deserve.
Toronto Sports Network (TSN) centric? Get the fuck out!
I'm sorry about the problems, and I'll be the first to agree that the NFL is everything bad about the U.S.: rich, arrogant, next to oblivious about anything outside our borders.
Hope the players can get a MUCH better deal. I know it's not the NFL, but the player salaries are shocking!
Happy to see my Riders are rockin' the CFL so far. Now that I have found a home, I hope to be able to get to a live game one of these days.
Appears to me the bigger men are the ones who suffered most from not playing last year. Oline protection a concern for most teams.
Not an easy thing to practise at home.

Matt Nichols didn't need the rain but Ottawa played much better. 2 more points for BC keeps the west tight.
BC is still not that good.

I am looking forward to watching my first Rider game of the year here in my new abode in Craik, SK. My sister in Craven who I was staying with until I bought my house has Roku not satellite, no news except the PR arm of the liberal party who need not be named and no sports. I haven't had TV until yesterday when SK Tel finally.................finally got me hooked up - it took them 24 days and three trips, and this after I had booked them 2 weeks ahead of my move here. I have something called Max TV and it looks like it will be a bit of learning experience. I downloaded and printed a guide that SK Tel emailed me today so I at least now know what all the buttons are for!
I was keeping up with the Riders through the Leaderpost and understand they are struggling. Lack of protection for Cody appears to be a problem as the O-line is all but porous.
The Riders have played the stumps twice now and have been defeated both times. I have no doubt that Calgary will be going into Saturday's game determined to make it three. I can only hope that someone on the coaching staff finally made the changes to the offensive line needed to give our QB the time to at least release the ball. GO RIDERS.

The Edmonton (Elks) played Winnipeg 3 times in a row (and lost all 3) but the schedule needs revisiting for sure.
I am, TM. I live on Ferguson St which has direct access to the highway. It fits me just right.
Nothing against my Riders, Dixie but the Bombers, IMHO are the best team in the CFL right now. They have it all and the belief to carry it through. It was almost excruciating watching how easily they foiled every chance the Lions had to score........or at times even move the ball. That is why they are first in the West and determined to stay that way.
I've driven through the village a few times the last few years for work South of you I usually stay in Davidson
Riders 7 -Als 3 at the half. That last drive of the game by our lads was a beaut. Go Cody. Go William!
Riders 19 - Als 14. All alone at 2nd in the West. Secured spot in play-offs. Improved record to 7 - 4. Yeah, baby that's my Riders.
