Not very much I gather as I can't see 770 having deep pockets to match Rogers if they really wanted to get the rights. As has been stated there are some logistical issues with the Flames and Stamps on occasion playing at the same time but I feel that could have been sorted out one way or another. I'm sure Kelly Kirsch campaigned Rogers management to put in a good bid but I'm not so sure his bosses out east overly care about the CFL. Shame because I feel the Stampeders and CFL in general need to start targeting a younger audience and I feel you get that on 960 vs 770.
