By including Monday i've also captured Monday's Jays game. Normally what I plan on doing for this is a 3-game average for a Jays homestand rather than each individual home game.

Edited, referenced to CFL ratings and not Jays.

Stadium was expanded in 2009 temporarily prior to hosting the Grey Cup. |
Your reading comprehension is sorely lacking. He was referring to the cfl numbers not averaging 1 mill

Anyway, for those wondering, Jays attendance average was actually up y/y through this May over last season. Average was down roughly 2K for June compared to last season. |

So, in my googling, i've stumbled upon a Yahoo Sports article by Andrew Bucholtz which tries to dissect presumed required attendance for breaking even in the CFL. I'm guessing this is more valuable than a potential soundbyte from Madani, anyway. Below are the relevant bits: Quote:

Or you just just post your link to where Madani said it and we can go and check it out for ourselves?
Or maybe you can't "because it goes against the grain of your narrative?" |

Just read that the Argos attendance is based on scanned tickets (AIS) asses in seats and not tickets sold. Interesting. A proper (and truthful) rebuild is in the works.

Hey all, this may have been covered earlier but just wondering how viewers per game (particularly CFL) on TV, are measured?

Look, as much as I like the CFL game - it's so bush league!
I mean come on, half the players are NFL rejects.. There are only 9 teams.. The fucked-up, crossover playoff thing.. It's fun, entertaining, but difficult to take seriously. It's totally bush league. But I have tickets! |

Having a small league makes it better I think, not having to follow 30+ teams makes it easier to follow the league as a whole. I mean, the NHL used to have only 6 teams and I've never heard them be called bush! I think the league shouldn't be separated in 2 divisions, rather one division with the top team from the east and top from the west having bye weeks in first round of playoffs. Sometimes any league can be difficult to take serious. With arenas half full in Carolina or Phoenix, how can anyone in those markets take the league or the game serious. I sometimes have a difficult time taking other sports leagues serious, based on salaries. For example, the NBA with people getting paid $40+ million a year to play a game which only lasts 48 minutes!! Plus all the timeouts and intentional fouls... I find it very difficult to take that serious... or soccer in general, players rolling on the field like they've just been shot!... or baseball with games taking 4+ hours... Sometimes it is difficult to take the CFL serious too, with some of the crappy calls that are made, especially one that have no effect on the play itself whatsoever. It's all personal preference really. |
Sounds like the typical Canadian inferiority complex, which makes for a self-fulfilling prophesy.
Let's face it, if we don't support the CFL and its generally exciting brand of football, the end product will be one NFL team in Toronto with the Toronto media ramming it down the rest of the country's throats, just like the Blue Jays and the Raptors. Perhaps, we should call the NHL bush league too because there is teams in Canada's smaller cities. I have been told that Ottawa doesn't deserve an NHL team, so why not go to the one team serves all for Canada. At that point, I will tune out of pro sports entirely. |

Diary Surveys – from design to data delivery 1. The geographic markets used for measuring and reporting radio and TV audiences are defined using data from Statistics Canada and Canada Post. 2. Survey Design staff determines the number of respondents, diary mail-outs and telephone listings needed to conduct each survey in each market. 3. A process called RDD (Random Digit Dialing) is used in each market as the basis for the weekly survey recruitment. 4. Enumeration departments in Montreal, Toronto and Moncton recruit households to participate in each upcoming survey and Diary packages are delivered to all participants in each household. 5. Diary information is captured by an electronic scanning system. Data is validated and processed. 6. Following a final data check, radio and TV database files are produced and supplied to third party processors for distribution to members via electronic software programs. 7. Once surveys have been processed, approved and released, members can then access opinions expressed on the comments page of each diary. Panel Meter – from design to data delivery 1. Each month, approximately 50,000 randomly selected homes with a landline or mobile telephone are called. 2. A large-scale, monthly telephone survey called an Establishment Survey is conducted to determine the status of households within each of the meter markets. 3. Candidates are randomly selected from the Establishment Survey sample frame to take part in the Electronic Meter Panel. 4. Once a household is recruited, it receives a package containing a Personal People Meter (PPM), a portable charger and a headphone adapter for each household member. 5. Each household is assigned a Panel Administration Team member who remains in contact throughout participation, answering questions, updating household information, and providing coaching to encourage each member of the home to meet the minimum carrying times each day. 6. The PPM is carried by each member of the home who is two years of age or older. It automatically records and time-stamps inaudible codes that are embedded in the audio of television and radio signals. 7. Each respondent's data is checked for compliance and validated against metrics at the household level. 8. Once final data checks are complete, radio and TV database files are produced and supplied to third party processors for distribution to members via electronic software. 9. Television databases are released daily and radio databases are released monthly. |

Also seriously using the term 'bush league' in reference to a sport is only used by men who can't play sports very well themselves & who are trying to compensate for something very very small. |
