Yesterday the Toronto Globe reported that the CFL Toronto Argonauts are asking their season ticket base if the team should move to BMO Field, home of Toronto FC of MLS.Understandably, the soccer fans of Toronto, who have sold out every single home match at the two year-old downtown stadium , are mighty upset that the Argos, who have been around since 1930 and have a smaller season-ticket file than TFC, are considering painting "football" lines on the soccer field.
The Argos have drawn around 30,000 fans per game over the last three seasons at the Rogers Center, the stadium formerly known as SkyDome. In order to make BMO Field, built for TFC and the 2007 U20 World Cup, fit for the CFL, a signifcant alteration would be required which would certainly ruin the intimate feel that has made the field and TFC a huge success.
Will MLS and TFC fans prove to be victims of their own success? Stay tuned.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
At least if the Argos move there, the 1st player to have their jersey retired will be Doug Flutie.
F*** TFC aka Fredo Corleone.
This move should only be on if it meant an expansion of BMO field to the 30,000 seats they deserve.
Would you mind a link exchange with my blog please? Thanks!
Netherlands has a great team but it is a pity that they haven't gotten the cup at least one.
