Great job... at times is the witty/funny banners that we will all remember.

yep - you can't be serious all the time. sometimes you need to use a fun approach.

Certainly, lots of people liked it from comments outside Gate 3 after.

If anyone wants, I hazard to guess 50% of the paint is available outside Gate 3 in chip form :)

Claudio Reyna a "has been"? All signs point to yes.

Love it. On a night we tried to show our lighter side the stadium decided to show their dark side (seizing banners).

Full props to everyone who had a hand in getting this done. The banner team keeps getting it done.

Again... that Usector banner will be remembered for a loooooong time. And it was small.

The Message packs more impact than the size.

Our idea was that since Reyna was the designated corner kick taker, that we'd get this one on ESPN when he came over to our corner. We did. :D

That's what I thought.
I don't think the banner has much to do with Toronto.
I think it was meant as a "NEE are bad-ass" statement.

oh yes... just noticed it says "smokin philly" under the banner.

Makes more sense now.
They probably should have made the text bigger.

Am I missing something? What's the connection between a baboon and smoking a philly?

NEE are also known as the baboons, ie shirts off, alot of hairy dudes

and we were playing philly

Like I said in an earlier post, I think the baboon is simply supposed to say "we are bad-ass".
And that "bad-ass" baboon happens to be smokin' Philly.

... that said, we never did "smoke" Philly... we squeaked by.

Simplicity is best... we've learned our lesson with the Zombie banner. I thought it was a great idea... but getting numerous ppl asking what is that? and why? well it takes away from the impact/message.

Ah, I got the philly part of it but didn't get the connection between NEE and baboons...

Smoke them? More like the ref handed us that game...for once!

I didn't make the connection... but I guess you're right! Again...

The USL 4EVER banner from one of the NCC games is one of my fave banners still. Simple, funny and managed to do a good job of kicking em while they're down.

What was the message behind that banner? I never managed to figure it out...
