The CFL is fine? I was a big fan of the league and now a lot less for different reasons. At the moment Montreal BC and Toronto are in real danger. Toronto have on average 5000 at the games while BC are back to the mid 90's empty stadium, the Alouettes have never been less popular since they are downtown. I'm in Montreal and at the moment the Alouettes could be gone and not many people would care.
Crowds while still good have dropped a lot in Edmonton and Calgary. Ratings are down. The League is closer to be down to 8 teams or less than 10 teams. People in general even in the United States are tired of the increased violence and game lenghts so even the NFL have ratings dropped and big attendance drops.
Yes they do in Europe and Asia but here it's the opposite people are USED to have the best leagues and all the best players, that's why it's tough for MLS.
The North American sport market is beyond saturated and you compete with the best.
