CFL has absolutely no need of Toronto. I mean I'd love if Toronto populace could understand that NFL considers them a joke and that CFL offers an exciting affordable brand of football you can't have south of the border. However if they haven't by now (20+ years of this being the case, ie Flutie) it doesn't seem likely. Toronto doesn't generate near the same ticket or sales numbers that the west or Quebec (province) does. At this point if Braley can sell his second team to a legit CFL market in Quebec City or Maritimes it'd be a win for the CFL. Screw Toronto, we really don't need them anymore than the NFL, the West and Quebec drive the CFL.
Agree (especially the screw Toronto part). There is however alot of propaghanda floating around about how losing Toronto woud be a death knell for the CFL and it usually has to do with the national TV deal/national sponsorship,etc. That always strikes me as being way overstated/overblown.
MLSE should buy the Argos and have them play in BMO field and get them the hell out of Rogers Place (however maybe MLSE is fooling themselves holding out for an NFL team I don't know)
