Foley and Black are not cited as the top CFLers as Giovinco is for MLS. That said... The NFL always gives CFL'ers a Look , but Italy's coach has just said that Giovinco will not get an invite to team Italy because "MLS doesn't count". Italy's coach actually said that playing in and dominating the MLS makes him mentally weak . LOL

TBH Paul, I like real grass too. But I don't like players running from real grass to turf as is the case in the end zones at BMO. I would prefer 1 or the other. It is going to be a factor on a key play at some point in a football game. When the Argos played the Stamps, Kenny Shaw scored a TD on a quick in route over the goal line in which the Stamps corner fell when he went to make his break. It obviously wasn't a key point in that game of season, but it could have been. The 2 different surfaces require different footwear.
It's us vs the rest of the country
The north end is the side where the permanent seating was removed to extend the field for football. The endzone is all turf there.
The south end usually has a couple feet of concrete between the field and the wall during soccer and it's mainly used as a walkway for stadium personnel. For Argos, they cover the remaining concrete with turf and run it right up to the wall.
Cameron Dukes + Dan Adeboboye + Kevin Mital + David Ungerer + Damonte Coxie + DaVaris Daniels + Dejon Brissett = Unstoppable Force
Bradley and Altidore both make about 6m each as well. Other players such as Cheyrou are on 300k contracts. MLSE is paying these guys salary akin to a mid range Premier League club. The Argos will not win this turf war, they would be best playing at a facility built for Canadian football i.e. university.
Beg to differ with you on this one .
At the present there is no turf war .... Why should there be one. There are a group of MLS teams that share their field. Toronto should be no different.
It is what it is .... Argos are there.
Salaries to the players have no bearing on who inhabits the city owned field.
3 players on TFC make up over 80 percent of the salary cap for the club. The fact you mention the 3rd to 4th top salaries dropping by 5.7 million dollars says it all. Nothing to win, Nothing will change. Actually i take that back, they may remove the grass in the end all due to this so TFC will be the big loser as CFL teams are used to fake grass.
How do the economics of TFC support these outrageous salaries? Why does MLSE fund this with no hope of ever recouping or ever breaking even?
GO ARGOS!!!
