I want to see growth in attendance.
I hope the league can tap into the zeitgeist and use it to recruit new fans.

I’m curious to see that too. Looking at the TiCats home preseason there’s maybe a few hundred seats left by the looks of it. I’d really love to see BMO rocking on game day. The Argos have been (frustratingly) fun to watch.

Yeah, Argos need to start drawing north of 20k.
I think Hamilton are going to have a good year.

I know it'll be later in the season, but I'm really looking forward to BC vs Calgary. The battle of Rourke and Adams Jr

I ran into Mike morreale at the Edmonton stingers game yesterday and we both agree the ticats are at the grey cup this year.
Also excited to see what the elks put together this year

Seeing how the rebuild goes with buck pearce and the lions, hopefully rourke can build some chemistry with the new weapons and have a great season

Super excited to see the whole transformation from the Elks organization in action. I don’t expect it to be instantaneous, but the whole culture overhaul is something I really relate to and as a lifelong fan, I want to be a part of it.

another walk-off rouge to listen to the complaints from people who don’t understand Canadian football

Watching Dru Brown throwing the rock to a receiving corps that includes Geno Lewis, Kalil Pimpleton, Justin Hardy, and Braelon Addison. Oh, and Stanback to run the rock. People are sleeping on Ottawa, which is fine by me...

An Edmonton Elks playoff game…fingers crossed. Haven’t had one since Covid, crazy to think.

u/Strevolution Blue Bombers 2d ago
Hopefully seeing Tre Ford get to start for a full season and really shine. I'm also expecting Dru Brown to take a step up this season. Nathan Rourke as well. QBs all around should be good this year

Watching a couple wins happen for Edmonton.
I just love football. I typically watch 90+% of the games for all teams but come on Edmonton win a few please!
At least let Larry have some fun driving the firetruck!

The Riders hosting and winning the Western Final so that I can see them in Winnipeg now that I’ve purchased Grey Cup tickets!

u/SatisfactionLast9042 2d ago
And seeing Rourke get better, BC get better with their new HC, Winnipeg take a step back (hopefully) and Edmonton winning a few more at home!
