Rush turned an 8-3 fourth quarter deficit into a 9-8 victory in its home opener.
The CFL is in a better place than it was 25 years ago. The days of the TV blackouts are gone. Bell and TSN have stepped up to support a league that draws limited interest where the majority of the Canadian population is (the GTA) and while it seems like a “slow-go,” the CFL is getting more attention in the United States and around the world thanks to CFL 2.0.
Sadly the Montreal Alouettes are the latest team to cast a cloud over the league as the season is about to start. The CFL currently owns the team, meaning the other eight teams are funding the Alouettes. That’s never good. Then on the weekend, head coach Mike Sherman and the team parted ways, after training camp and before the start of the regular season.
A once-mighty, and now dysfunctional, team is one of nine franchises preparing for the regular season. The Alouettes have given the CFL some sad headlines in what should be a happy time with the 2019 season about to get under way.
