Why they might be annoying:

    They went 30 straight years without winning a Grey Cup (1953-82).
    They aren't as popular in Toronto as the city's other pro teams are.
    Trailing 14-11 against Calgary in the Grey Cup Game, they were on the verge of winning or tying score, when RB Leon McQuay fumbled the ball away, preserving the win for Calgary (1971).
    Their former owner, Bruce McNall, was imprisoned for fraud.
    Vince McMahon once tried to buy them.
    Their uniforms make them look kind of like the Tennessee Titans.

Why they might not be annoying:

    They are the CFL's oldest continuous franchise, having the same team name since 1873.
    They've won more total Grey Cups than any other team in history.
    They get to play their home games in the SkyDome, with its retractable roof.
    They won the 100th Grey Cup in front of their home fans (2012).
    John Candy and Wayne Gretzky were once part owners.
    They've hosted the Grey Cup Game more than any other team.
