What is it with Rogers hiring pro wrestling reporters to act as real journalists? First it was Jeff Marek and now John Molinaro. Sorry, but I can't take these guys seriously.
Although I agree with your defense of Tim L, the rest of your statement is really ignorant and pretty racist. As someone whose parents came here from one of these "olive soaked republics" you speak of, I take serious offense to it.
It's us vs the rest of the country
I would have serious issues in holding my fists back from plowing the dorks glasses of his dumb assed face. The more I see with these TFC dorks the more I hate. All young stupid assholes who feel some sort of entitlement. Perhaps his parents should kick him out of the basement and take away his video games for showing suck disrespect. Oh wait the parents are reason that these dicks know no better.
Now why are those comments from this jackwagon not considered racist????? If I told him to go home, I'd be a classed as a racist. F this bullshite. What a whack of filthy scum that attend these games.
Blame Tim L for handing out beers.
Any cool people go to TFC games or do you need to be a dork to get in?
I call it like I see it.
what racist garbage is that? Did I say anything about his race??? I based my comment on how he presented himself and the irony that he is welcome to do the exact same thing he told Tim to do. How Tim did not have him thrown out on his arse amazes me and shows how much nonsensical garbage he must have been putting up with from morons like that during his tenure.
I was speaking to tbone specifically saying I though his viewpoint was not right, I could see how someone could share his viewpoint based on the "damage control" angle but thought that guy went so far beyond and stated it in a pretty broad range. People think they are immune to that sort of thing, but we al came from somewhere else and should remember this.
If you are getting agro with me to protect a goof like that, then I gather you are no better than him and are welcome go back to your own "shit-hole".
Nothing wrong with that.
But do you honestly not understand what AngeloV took offence to in this post?:
Also, Rich's response was not the most elegant but attacking his character like that is really not cool.
My liniage is pretty close to the same place as Angelo I am thinking . And although I am not saying that it gives me an extra right. I am completely sick of people like the heckler and people who support that garbage. a mere 40-50 years ago my parents and Angelos parents faced the same "go back where u came from" garbage. I didn't post that to be racist but as a reminder (to the heckler type) .
Do not know Angelo and was not referring to him at all but grew up with enough of these a-holes to recognize the heckler's type. If it came across as "racist", that was not my intent and in fact the tone of my post was fueled by exactly the opposite. My daughter was born in the states and if someone told her to go back to he states I clearly would not b as civil as Tim. apologies to tbone for starting what became an issue for some and to any offended but I stand by my original point as directed to the TFC fan and no one else.
Apologies to you Rich and Angelo. There is no point to posting on forums if in the end people are getting hurt feelings as it takes away from what should be a positive exchange of thoughts and opinions. All the best to you both. I have removed my comment. cheers guys and see ya at BMO.
Looking forward to continued discussions on whats been long awaited good news on the ARGOS front.

Sorry to everyone that I've offended yet again!!! I just can't stand seeing these fools act the way they are. They obviously will never understand how foolish they look and act especially when caught on camera or handheld.
You can't help but think that the majority of TFC fans must act this way. I'm sure there are a few very good ones who hate what's going on as well. At this point TFC fans make me see red. haha. Just a little joke there.
I always speak my mind and in some ways it's a good thing but I just can't let stuff slide that totally frustrates me.
I've done some dumb things but these clowns take it over the edge.
This TFC hate for everything Argos has to just go away. It is what it is and we're headed to their beloved BMO.
Like I've said long time Argo fans understand about teams moving into their stadium as The Jays and Blizzard did at CNE. Only thing different is that we didn't mind or were very happy as I was. I was a HUGE Jays fan back then.
Apology accepted. Some TFC fans hating on everything Argos and the CFL is not just going to go away, just as some CFL fans hating on TFC and MLS won't. Shit is being thrown from both sides. Do you honestly believe the majority of TFC fans act that way? There were 23,000 people at that game. I also suggest that a 17 second video clip may not tell the whole story. Anyway this situation reminds me of a quote:
Toronto isn't used to a "supporters" culture such as the one that TFC has brought to the table and you aren't going to convince them to accept the Argonauts at BMO. There may be some of them who are soccer-only and do not even care for baseball, basketball or hockey. I'm speculating here, but perhaps some of them come from backgrounds where soccer is so paramount that it is difficult for them to fathom that another sport might be on par or more popular than theirs. I don't think their views necessarily reflect that of the majority of the larger supporters groups such as U-Sector, but some of the smaller ones perhaps. I don't think it reflects the opinion of the average TFC fan either who is sitting in sections outside the supporter ones.

That's cool. Thanks for going more into detail with what you meant.
It'll be interesting to see if some of these idiots try anything stupid at the first Argos game at BMO. I really hope someone as the foresight to make sure there is added security just in case.
