On the other hand how many Grey Cups have been won by good/bad luck due to weather conditions. No traction on icy fields, fumbles with frozen hands, etc, etc. Ending the season a month earlier has a better chance of playing the Cup in half decent weather. We could still have a blizzard, but the chances are a lot greater of temperatures in the +5 to +15 range.
The only thing the weather dictates is the quality of play, not the outcome.
Some but not all football game outcomes are dictated by slips, fumbles, drops because of cold hands and other intangibles like rain, fog, wind or heat so, saying the weather plays a major part in those factors may be true to some extent but is completely mitigated by the fact that both teams play in the same weather on the same field at the same time.
If we want perfect Championship games or other games for that matter with no outside factors we may as well just start doing what the Americans do with the Super Bowl where it's only played in a neutral warm weather venue or domed stadium. Of course that would mean that we'd only have all games in Vancouver especially after Rogers and the Blue Jays kick the Argos out of the Skydome in 2018 and would mean the end of the CFL since only one City would have a team.
I personally think we'd be better off leaving things as they are rather than possibly damaging our game because some people got cold. Besides, they've made a cure for cold football fans and it's called alcohol.
