Seems rather odd to pander to the third place team in attendance.
But really, it is one thing for the media to attach itself to a team's posterior. For the league itself to do so only opens up accusations of bias, which certainly were flowing following the West Final. The CFL has abandoned any pretense of neutrality, and only makes itself look even more bush league than usual.
