Even if it was the Riders I'd feel a faint twinge of sorry for their fans, but not Edmonton.

A) Becuase Edmonton and B) Because Hugh Campbell ran the league when he was in charge and made things very favourable for his teams. Most of that was behind the scenes in the 70s, 80s and 90s when no one would question it, but, things that did come to light such as the Maas trade for literally nothing, and him having a league mandated player suspension turned over by a provincial judge/Esk ticket holder, goes to show that no one in the league dare cross him. That organization deserves all the humiliation it has coming to them.
I agree totally about Edmonton. But the Riders, I hate their fans more than I hate the team. In the 70's and 80's, I don't mind the team. Now, it's their obnoxious fans that I hate.
