BearcatSA Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 (edited) ^High profile NA sports leagues like NCAA football and Major League Baseball are expanding or have expanded their playoff formats for a league championship. Six of nine CFL teams make the playoffs for the Grey Cup. It seems pretty sett in the sporting culture.

SpursFlu Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 (edited) I tend to be more of a purist but it should be noted that many traditional football leagues do have playoff formats just not in their top division. Those playoffs tend to generate a lot of excitement and money. So make of that as you will Edited October 18, 2023 by SpursFlu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also suggests we don't have real stars in CPL, if you're a consistent journeyman with leadership on a solid team you can be nominated. Maybe Bekker, however boring that may seem to many.

johnyb Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Pleasantly surprised that Sportsnet had highlights of the Pacific / Cavalry game last night. Bodes well that they will do the same for the final. Trois Reds, Cheeta, chalms04 and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highlights are great but it's a bit after the fact when you want people to tune in and buy tickets Edited October 22, 2023 by SpursFlu Ansem, Bbeto, MtlMario and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see that the contestants for this year's World Series were both horrible two years ago and below .500 mediocre last year. Even in the no hard salary cap MLB, anybody can win.

Kent Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 I don't think it has been mentioned here, but the new playoff champion trophy will be revealed tonight at the CPL Awards on OneSoccer at 7pm Eastern. Despite all the promotion of the new trophy I have seen on Facebook with all the fake rejected ideas for the cup, I have only seen it mentioned in the recent CPL attendance article when and where the new Cup will be revealed. "The league will also reveal the North Star Cup, the recently announced trophy to be awarded to the League’s playoff champion starting this season, as part of the awards ceremony." https://canpl.ca/article/canadian-premier-league-attendance-soars-in-historic-fifth-season narduch and johnyb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kent Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Looks like the awards will be on OneSoccer's youtube channel. They already have it listed. I don't know for sure if it will also be on the OneSoccer app. I'd check the schedule but that would probably log me out of the app on my Roku. narduch and MtlMario 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
