You keep catering to an aging audience too long and you end up with CFL issues of your viewership numbers overly tilted into an elder demographic.

I felt more or less the same way. The thing about Strombo was that he was younger and I felt, more in tune with the modern game and not a shill for the Refs.
But the network simply had no patience.
