Gruden & Dunigan on the DAZN panel would be outstanding.

I don't think TSN or Bell is paying that much as they've undervalued the CFL for decades. Tyler couldn't find 75% of the games before so it is a big whoop. He could have as he is as tech savvy as most of you guys but he just said, "**** it". Great tv deal making American fans jump thru hoops for a measley hundred thousand dollars a year per team. Typical Ambrosie.

No, most people aren't tech geeks & won't bother.

For now, the CFL has stability & increased revenues & that's alright.

They could get a tv deal for $2 billion & you'd find something to complain about. Like Toronto would lose $35 million instead of $25 mill. There's no way that TSN could be exclusive broadcast rights anymore. Things had to change. Tell me, since you seem to hate this deal so much, what would you have done? What kind of package would you have put together?

Well, have you read the pathetic bitching on social media over this tv deal? As well as all the rule changes?? That is neither hate or age related. It's fact & nothing new. And just how you can bring politics into this conversation is incredible. Oh & guess what? It's called having an opinion without rage baiting like ageism or hating on Alberta.

It's pre season. Get a grip.

You guys that ***** & complain about everything. Do you have any idea how much of a pain in the ass it is to watch the CFL on its own streaming service in the US when it's not on CBS Sports? My son has given up watching as it really is annoying. He has no idea when the games are being played. This deal with CBS Sports only gave teams a hundred grand or so each season & is one of the leftovers of the ******* Randy Ambrosie screw up years. The DAZN deal will be easier for fans to subscribe to to find the games.

The sky is falling! The sky is falling!!

The agreement with CBS expires after this year. It's a piddling amount anyway. Each teams get just over a hundred grand a season.

The Cats let the best Center leave for Edmonton to sign Kolankowski.

It's one game a week. Not anentire season. If people are willing to stop watching the CFL over this then the league might as well just fold up its tent. Canadians sure like to ***** & complain about everything. Nothing is ever good enough. I'm on the fence as to whether I'll get DAZN but if I don't I won't stop watching.

It still makes more sense to do this than what Ambrosie tried. If the CFL can make some money internationally then why not? Do you think some casual fan in Europe who doesn't know a first down from a hash mark is going to pay attention to whether it's 3 or 4 downs? It'll look the same so they probably don't know the diffence anyway. I think despite the sellouts when the NFL plays around the world it's still a niche sport compared to the popularity of soccer & hockey.

How great is it not seeing Chris Kolankowski as the starting Center? My condolences to the Hamilton Tiger Cats, You got suckered.

I'm going by memory. This was a few years ago & I never was a subscriber. My friend was & he was hot. I know Roger Goodell got involved in this as it was everywhere.

They had the NFL on their platform 4 or 5 years ago. They had real problems streaming games. The stream would freeze or pixilate. Fans everywhere complained on social media & the NFL (I believe) pulled their games. I never had a subscription so I don't know what happened there. I did know someone who did subscribe & was he angry. I believe their service has improved greatly since.

I hope they do an autopsy & check Lemieux's brain for repeated concussions which could have led to him having symptoms of CTE or Parkinson's.

The CFL plays Thurs till the NFL season starts, Friday nights as well as Sat aftn & evening. At worst, if you don't subscribe you'll miss one game a week. I don't think the world will come crashing down for the CFL losing one game a week to fans who don't want to pay for the service. This is the proper way to grow the game internationally. Not the Ambrosie way of bringing in Euros, Australians, Mexican or Japanese & forcing them on rosters thinking that people in those countries will suddenly be interested in our league.

So, why can't the CFL put financial terms in the announcement? Why the cloak & dagger garbage?

It ain't cheap/ $34.99 a month now. It'll be more next year.

How much is it worth to each team financially?

It's a huge streaming platform worldwide. Called Da Zone.

Boreanz Rockford character will probably be sipping wine, driving an EV & living in a luxury condo in Santa Monica.

Stick to hockey.
