Their re-branding in the off-season seems to have had a bit of success - I've seen the new look here and there.
Marketing seems to have been stepped up a bit. Most notably I am pretty sure they were advertising quite heavily during the Super Bowl and NFL playoffs on RDS.

With the poor team and the ownership issues I thought they were going to be a basketcase this season but they actually appear to have at least a reasonable degree of organizational stability going on. So that's a plus for the Alouettes.
As for the Argos, yeah, they are in trouble. But the good news is that the losses are a rounding error on the MLSE balance sheet.
