Good to hear! Hopefully Argos win this week and TFC, keeps it going, as well. As someone else pointed out, two BMO Field champions in 2017 has a pretty good ring to it...

Nice to hear that, as I suspected, these are the actions of a few. On a positive note, what was your take away from your first Argo game?

I'd say the people who hung that banner either a) have way too much time on their hands, b) are the type who will try and ruin other peoples fun (cowardly, anonymous bullies, in other words - I'd...

Today, the Argos finally got what TFC has, that is, a (nearly) full BMO Field. An entertaining game in front of a terrific crowd. It was also cold - but not too cold. Could not have asked for more!

As someone who did post about TFC in an unfavourable manner in the last day, or so, I felt I needed to reply.

First of all, I did not intend to offend, but the game Sunday was an example of what...

Agreed. As I suggested in an earlier post, as well, the fact is other fan bases come into the city, be it the Dome or BMO, and deal with all the same issues - parking, traffic, etc - yet the Argo...

Yes, I have seen that, as well. Hey, I've been that guy a couple of times! Again, touching on the theme of this thread, it is not always easy to get someone to come down to the game if my buddy or I...

I played soccer as a kid and certainly appreciate the skill and fitness level required to play the sport, particularly at such a high level (though MLS is certainly, ahem, minor league in the world...

Imagine if these 'world class athlete' soccer players had to get up from some of the hits Ricky Ray has taken? They wouldn't...

Yet, Argos still draw poorly on the weekends, when the gridlock is much less. Other Toronto teams still draw their fans, fans of all ages, from across the GTA, in spite of all this. Smaller crowds...

No doubt, there are challenges in getting to the games. This year, I was able to make every game - last year I missed a few - that's how it goes...but when the majority of Argo fans choose to stay...

Yes, fair enough...it is a challenge to get into the city for games. I live in Barrie and leave at least 2 hours before game time, sometimes three, and don't always make it with much time to spare,...

I absolutely agree, BMO isn't easy to get to. But that doesn't stop the TFC fans. The Dome is more convenient to get to (via public transit, at least), but was a terrible venue for football, while...

But because the stadium is full, it creates the perception that TFC has more fans, is more successful, and is the place to be for the casual fans. I have friends who are casual sports fans, and who...

The good TV numbers cited in the article show why Bell has invested in the team and should continue to do so. Though the Argo crowd is not entirely 'old and white', it leans that way, and much of it...
