Narrow casting, if you understand what it is, jason although I probably exaggerated somewhat with the 300,000 - 600,000. You were probably never much of a CFL fan to begin with, only NFL is my guess. The quality of the fan who watches a sport on a cable channell they pay for is what narrowcasting is all about and what the advertisers understand. Do you subscribe to TSN because CFL games sometimes get over 1 million viewers so a lot of people have access to TSN in this country and pay for it? All CFL games are now on national TV and TSN does so much better of a job than CBC used to do and CBC often didn't even carry games until Sept. rolled around.

CFL games sometimes outdraw NFL games if you check the ratings and really the "mighty NFL" with all the American TV exposure and media coverage and hype should be outdrawing the CFL by at least 4-1 with just about every game. The SB has actually in some years not even outdrawn the Grey Cup as weird as that sounds with all the American hype it gets around here.

Although I do miss Chris Walby. ;) ;)
