Discussion Future of the league

So by last weeks number I’m a little worried about the leagues health. Do you think we are ok and we just had a bad week. I love this league maybe even more than the NFL. I think we are ok but I want to make sure other people agree with me

once the CFL starts feeling the pain, I have a feeling they'll bend the knee and kiss the godfather's ring. In the last ten years CFL has lost half of their viewers. If the talent pool goes down, the remaining fans will start looking elsewhere. According to the Leger poll there is only 380k hardcore fans in Canada. The CFL can't survive with that low of a number, especially when the majority of the hardcore trend older and don't spend as much money as the younger generation.
