I have to disagree with you on this one, and I've been one of the biggest complainers about how I feel the esks have ruined their image in the last few years.
despite how big the event is, not everyone is into the world cup or into soccer. should the whole city come to a stop because of the event? I don't think so.
and what are the esks supposed to do about training camp? they had to leave their home field for the world cup. it's not like to could move training camp to the city for one day to make it convenient for transit takers. it is what it is.
you're complaining for the sake of complaining this time.
again, as cool as the world cup is, there are many people like me who don't consider an event as the same time as a cup game a big deal at all. a million people in this city and not all of them want to watch the world cup.
I kinda agree with both of you. But at the end of the day it wasn't just a random day in the tournament it was the hope opener for the Canadian team and I feel it would have been respectful to support them considering the Eskimos are community owned. If it was game 2 or 3 in the tournament whatever.
