Salary caps that are one tenth of what a major sport team cap looks like, a handful of games that cant maintain the atmosphere of MLB.
People care about money when there spending 30-40 bucks a ticket.
Its this circular argument that the cfl presents, were major league yet we have none of the things associate with a major league.
Like seriously mlse could double the salaries of the entire CFL tomorrow on jump a whim.
Im sure the old stadium in Hamilton didn't help either, everything look bush league.
Be clear nobody cars about America teams, what people care about is 100 million dollar salaries when there being sold something as a major league. If the CFL had drastic Cap increase Im sure Toronto would be all over it.
Now if the CFL sold it as a local regional league like the CHL, things would be very different, civic rivalries would be huge.
Because right now the CFL is feels like a distorted chl, only theres one token team from Ontario, and one token teams from quebec.
