All I want for the league is to acknowledge there is a problem or for Ted Hellard to blasts the refs in the medium to atleast show the fans someone cares and is listening to them. This won't happen though. The CFL has their head up their ass and if Hellard says anything he's going to get punished by the CFL and the refs will just make even worse calls against his team.

Am I hurting the Stamps by not going to the games anymore? Yes. Do I care? ABSOLUTELY NOT! By going to Stamps game I am directly supporting the CFL. The CFL makes a mockery of professional sports each week now and i'm not going to support it. Given the increasingly empty number of seats each game at McMahon, I don't think i'm the only one either.
Like I said, it's your call. One I don't agree with - but we disagree on the product. I personally think the CFL product is awesome with improved (yes, much improved in some cases) officiating over the last few years - although, admittedly, last night was a big step back in the wrong direction. I care if I hurt my team - if you don't care if you hurt yours, that's your call.

Edit: The other thing I forgot to add was Lazaruk was reffing the game last night. He is far and away the CFL's worst ref. If they replaced him with someone competent, we'd have a lot less of these discussions.
