And it is like there has been a rotation of franchises that just can't get their #### together in the last 5-10 years.
What's weirder is the turnaround is usually pretty quick.
Just look at Calgary. Legacy of the 90s turns into an ugly joke for a few years and then they bounced back.
Winnipeg was a great team for a few years in the 2000s and then turned into a joke and are back again.
TO won back to back GC's in the 90s then went to the dumps, won a GC, went to the dumps, came back, went to the dumps again.
Hamilton. Well Hamilton's had a rough ride for the last 5-7 years but they are nearing respectability.
Riders. Total joke of a franchise for the better part of...well ever really. Then really turned it around about 8 years ago. Made 3 of 4 GC's, looked like they had a nice bright future and are now a shadow of where they were even 9 months ago.
BC's was pretty good for a while and have only recently come on hard times.
Edmonton went from perennial contender to joke to 5-0 to nearing failure status pretty quick this season.
Seriously the only team in the CFL with a great last decade and bright future is Montreal.
Everyone else has had at least a few years of being in disarray. Hiring and firing coaches, questionable ownership, on and off the field issues etc.
