Other than the Renegades (unless you count the Rough Riders) & the current version of the Als (if you just count their continual history from the Baltimore Stallions in the mid 90's)--the Lions are youngest...The Argos are over 100 years old...

Phil Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 I wasn't too impressed with it... I actually think it looks kinda dumb... the ball looks like it got severely deformed.Considering it is 75 years, the team certainly hasn't been playing up the anniversary, but yeah, as a fan its a milestone to celebrate.

I believe the Argos have been around since 1872 and Hamlton was established before the Argos I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelboy Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Hamilton was founded in 1869 as the Tigers. The Toronto Argonauts were founded in 1873, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pixelboy Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 This year is also the 75th anniversary of Ivor Wynne Stadium in Hamilton. It was constructed for the 1930 British Empire Games originally (the inaugural Commonwealth Games). There have been suggestions on Hamilton's website that they may come out with a commemorative logo patch for the Ticat unis this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winters in buffalo Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 I didn't realize that the city of Winnepeg was that old. Wasn't it just a little trading post 75 years ago? Beaver pelts, whale blubber & such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winnipeg was bigger than any major cities west of it (Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver) for a while, I think. Indeed... we were the Chicago of the West for a while there, especially when the railroad started moving people West.The origins of Winnipeg can be traced back to the 1730's, but the name first became popular in the mid-1850s. It was an early fur-trading settlement established at the Forks, the place where the Assiniboine and Red rivers meet, and protected by two forts, Upper Fort Garry and Lower Fort Garry.

IceCap Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 So the CFL basically outdates the NFL? yep. as for the hamilton-toronto thing, the argos were founded in 1873, but the hamilton tiger-cats were founded in the 1890's i think when the hamilton tigers merged with the hamilton wild cats. so the current hamilton team as one entity is younger then the argos.
