Still exciting news.

3DownNation reported in 2019 that the TSN deal was extended for 6 years and $50 Million. So $8.3 million per year, and just over $900,000 per team if they get all the money. But the CFL payment to the Bombers in 2021 was over $4 million, and they say the majority of that was from their share of the TV deal, so who knows the actual number? Suffice to say having a $200 million TV contract in the US would create a significant cash windfall.

You mean “CFLPA All-Star Aaron Crawford” 

I’m sure guys are really familiar with every long snapper and have strong opinions 

Calgary needs to pay up

How much does  award winner Dan Clark get, $250,000? $300,000? $500,000?

If he's smart he would block all their agents phone number...but he isn't.

[greenrider55]

If JOD runs back the same OLine as last season… Yeesh. The only player I have any interest in keeping is Ferland. Just hope it isn’t too late with Sorrells stink all over him.

I'm not sure, but I heard they weren't getting much.  4x that might be at least something.

The current deal with espn is 200k a year for all the games. I’m sure it’s 4x that. No chance they are giving us that much when their portion of the mls deal is 40m total over 4 years.

Wonder how much the market on Buck Pierce has cooled after the Grey Cup performance?

[greenrider55]

Costello would be a major, major add for the Riders. They desperately need someone to direct the OLine.

Lol...
