The blurst of times. With apologies to the majority of the BMO Field population (circa 2007-2013), Toronto FC's image was built in large part on the visage of the South Stand. Now in no way are we claiming that the supporters in the south are more valuable or important than any others in the ground but it was the sizzle of the "European atmosphere" that TFC immediately harnessed to carve their place in Toronto's crowded sports entertainment market.
So they removed the President of Toronto FC and during the brief press conference it was revealed that MLSE is "kinda" still looking at shoehorning the Argos into the ground. I don't get it. It doesn't make any sense. I'm sure the cost of the retrofit doesn't remotely equal the money they'd make from a rental.
"You. Better. Work!" Happy Labour Day comrades! Not just a day of where parents drunkenly celebrate their children getting the eff back to school but also a day where we throw off the shackles of our American oppressors and stand up for our right to spell "labour" with the letter "u"!
Terry F*ckin' Dunfman  To poorly paraphrase Monty Python: "Drinking a beer at BMO Field is like sex in a canoe. It's f*cking close to water." Yes, the "King" of Beers (possibly the Larry King of beers at best) is now the official beer supplier at BMO Field and your taste buds couldn't be more morose.
Man, IHOMHEP sucks.  One of the folksy multicultural promotions that TFC began back in 2007 was to aim for gastronomical inclusiveness at the BMO Field concession stands. In a city where football supporters can hail from any continent, the club tried to cater to all needs simultaneously.
Why release doves when you have seat cushions?The 2012 Olympics ended as London
waved goodbye to the XXX Olympiad. (How they could have a XXX Olympiad without Joe Cannon is a
disgrace) In 2016, British stereotypes will be replaced with Brazilian stereotypes as Rio hosts the
next games - bowler hats replaced with thongs; chalky white skin will make way for bronzed tans;
Beckham out - 103 year-old Pele in; and whatever the samba equivalent of Pet Shop Boys is.

The U.S. Men's National Team captain will look to lead his new team closer to a Western Conference playoff spot when they take on Toronto FC at BMO Field.
"Come back tomorrow as Toronto FC host Columbus..."Editor's Note: The suddenly resurgent "Argonauts to BMO Field" story divides Toronto FC fans into two groups. The cynics who think that it is inevitable (Hi everybody!) and those who think it simply won't happen, or if it does - no big deal.
"Can you feel the passion? Umm...guys? Can you feel it?" It was always going to be this way. As far back as the first home fixture in 2007, Toronto FC was based on a house of cards that was "the great atmosphere". It didn't help when the assembled North American football media got in line to stroke the club and its supporters' egos for managing to introduce a "European match atmosphere" to MLS.
Thoughts and video from the stands as Toronto FC close up shop at home at BMO Field for 2012 with what was a forgettable draw to the Montreal Impact. Rating: 5.0/5 (2 votes cast)

"You're welcome Upper Canada"
Ah, the long weekend. The holiday Monday is known across Canada by a flurry of different names such
as Heritage Day, Saskatchewan Day and possibly Yukonpalooza but of course the only real name is
Ontario's Simcoe Day. Today is the day that Upper Canada honours John Graves Simcoe who drove the
snakes out of Pickering sometime in the mid-1970's.

Prior to the 2012 campaign, the Philadelphia Union had only lost 4 matches at home. It is early
June, and the team ranks last in virtually every offensive category with a disappointing home
record of 1-3-1. Eastern Conference teams are 31-15-12 at home this year (8 losses occurred at PPL
Park or Toronto FC's BMO Field) and Western Conference teams are 31-20-12 at home (9 losses at the
Home Depot Center).

The Winter and his discontentMake no mistake, Wednesday evening's victory over
Montreal was a much needed breathe of fresh air for Toronto FC and their long-suffering supporters.
Beyond the win and progression to the Canadian Championship finals, simply being entertained and
having a bit of the old "BMO Field atmosphere" return was nice.

No matter the result, this one practically writes itself.
After three consecutive years of finishing as runner-up to Toronto FC in the Canadian
championship, 2012 could finally be the Vancouver Whitecaps' year to claim the Voyageurs Cup.
Considering Toronto FC's struggles and Vancouver's rise to respectability after a trying MLS
expansion season, the Whitecaps are the favorites entering this year's Canadian championship, which
commences Wednesday night.

"This ball is still believes in me..." We barely had time to "get used to" you Kevin.
Through the powerfully heartfelt mediums of corporate press release and hobbled together conference call, Toronto FC kept the gears greased on their never-ending management carousel. Kevin Payne, the ever-so humble, Forlan-addicted veteran MLS executive has "parted ways" with Toronto FC and is no longer the President and GM of the wildly successful club.
