Seems crazy for them to, within such a short period of time, be considered a profit machine. It'd be nice to hear how many season tickets they have already sold for next year.
Revenue is one side of profit. Expenses are the other and the CFL has very low expenses that are tightly controlled.

They produce something that is probably 75% of the NFL entertainment product's quality (I'd say more than that) at maybe 3% of the cost. There is a lot of possibility there.
