this is how i'd like to see most CFL fields look in '07:
obviously sub the ticat logos for whatever team is hosting.
notice small CFL logos on the 20 yard lines ( i know i didnt put enough lines for a proper field, but u get the idea ).
i don't know if there would be enough space for all the advertisements currently on the field, but if not, maybe the CFL should scrap ads on the field altogether and put ads only on the padding that goes around the field.
Well I bet that paint companies would love to see this!
Personally I think it would look great but with soccer lines on some fields apparently needed, and of course advertising, I doubt we'll see this, unfortunately.
Good idea drummer about ads around the field only.
I like the idea but unfortunately, the ads already take up the space. In Montreal, there are already ads on the padding, in front of the stands, and on the field. Not too mention all the cheesy promotions (Als fans who saw the POM or Energie Cardio dancers know what I am talking about). As nice as it would look, I am not sure that most CFL teams would be willing or even able to sacrifice sponsorship.
The riders are getting new turf this year. I believe its the same green as Calgary's and then the endzones will be darker green (Rider green) but I forget what they will say in the endzones.
Actually It's Not Unrealistic To Expect To See Less Advertisements In Upcoming Seasons. With The Increase Of CG Television Ads Such As The Dodge 1st & 10 Arrows On Field Ads Atually Take Space Away From Where Brodcasters Can Add Their Own Ads. The Real Advantage With Adding CG Ads Is That Advertisers Can Cycle Through Several Different Ads During A Game Thus Charging Less Per Company But Making More Overall.
The ads on the field and jerseys arent overdone , IMO. If you want to see overkill on advertising, try watching the Spengler Cup tournament next time, and you will see why too much advertising can be a bad thing.
well before BC even dreams of doing theirs like that they need a decent turf that doesnt pull apart and look like 4x8 sheets of plywood from the air; it is disgusting. Calgary never will change theirs becuase it ais a multiuse facility belonging to U of C.
Lets face it; the CFL is finally a success and has some corporate sponsorship that is making it pay... why mess with that because of some aesthically pleasing artistic sentiments?
