Oh yes, what a terrible organization. Preserving and continuing the history of one of Canada's oldest sports. I mean, a national league that generates tons of publicity for the city, that's crazy. It's not like we have some kind of Football Hall of Fame in our city. I mean, what you'd think they were older then the Lister Block itself!
Speaking of history, where do they get off working with the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum to run flybys over the stadium on game days when thousands are in attendance. It's not like our military history should supported and publicly displayed.
How dare they continue to help raise thousands for various charitable organizations including McMaster children's hospital, Speroway, the Untied Way, CityKids, Big Brothers, Rotary Club, Knights of Columbus and the Kiwanis Boys and Girls Club, nevermind the dozens of minor and junior football organizations (of which many of their players help run free football camps).
Oh what awful people these guys who run a Food Drive every Labor Day to help fill local food banks. What jerks, them and their fanbase are by running the annual Ron Lancaster climb to end cancer, nevermind bring in all of the corporate charity events like the Purolater tackle hunger program to our city. Also, how dare their players raise awareness for countries like Hatti and Guyana.
and now that they have to run an entire season out of pocket (It's not like we want to be like Vancouver, we gotta show them how it's done, given that they completely paid for a a temporary stadium for the Lions when BC Place was getting a reno), they want to make sure the stadium is done on time for the start of the season or potentially lose millions as a result.
Pfft, are you kidding me, it not like any major Hamilton works project has every stalled and not been on time. What do you think this is, the Red Hill Expressway, the Lister Block, the Randle Reef, the Westmount rec center, the Stoney Creek rec center?

Still waiting for the Randle Reef mess to get cleaned up, but hopefully not much longer!
