View Full Version : My beef with the Sunshine Girl

And no this is not a rant about the quality of the ladies which varies from "very nice" to "what were they smoking?".

This is about the Official Newspaper of Toronto FC, never having a girl on there with TFC gear on!

We've seen quite a few girls show up over the years that say they are soccer fans. And many in the last couple of years during the existance of Toronto FC. And we see many girls show up with local team gear on. From the Leafs, to the Jays (yesterday had Jays stuff on) to Argos to even OHL and AHL teams!

But no TFC? From one of our own sponsors?

I really wish TFC had been able to bring on board a different newspaper. They did a great job with Kia, BMO, Carlsburg etc. But the Sun might be that one spot on an otherwise perfect corporate sponsorship execution.

newspapers are dying...hardly relevant with the interweb.

also...

i hear there are a lot of pics of girls on the interweb...so the relevance of the sunshine girl is less and less...

soon people talking about sunshine girls will be like people with mullets...clearly they don't have email/internet.

(although it would be awesome if one of the girls rocked some RPB gear.)

I think maybe I see this from a different perspective being as that I have been involved in sponsorship arrangements before.

Last night I was at the Raptor game and you could tell BMO was doing everything it could to a) get their name out and b) support the Raptors. They are taking advantage of the sponsorship arrangement the most they can. It was almost too much. But you can't blame them for trying.

What does the Sun do?

For me this really isn't an issue of the Sunshine girl per say, as much as it is a symptom of the Sun's disregard for this team. You'd think the Sun, a dying newspaper in a dying industry, would be doing everything it could to make sure it stays relevant. That's marketing people, that's advertising. And ignoring an up and coming force in Toronto like TFC...well...I hope they eventually drop out and someone else steps in. Shoot...even the Star would have been better.

^ Why not?

Public/audience pressure has always been the way to make corporations take notice. And part of our jobs as supporters is to make TFC bigger than it is...as big as we can make it.

That's why if there was TFC underwear...I'd wear it to the beach!

In a web forum largely populated by guys isn't obvious that the girl that most often comments on her own preceived "hottness" or the one that makes the most sexual oriented comments or the one that wears tight shorts to all kickabouts would be the one mentioned?

Oddly enough in this case all those characteristics point to you.....:noidea:

Take it as a complement that some of the guys on this form may want you on their screen when there all alone surfing the RPB forum.....not sure what Workie would have to say about it though.

Oh I am Blue, don't worry about that. The majority of my friends are guys, so I'm used to it. And if the guys on this forum wanted to oggle me, they should have bought a calendar last year ;)

And Workie said no :p Charlie tried to convince him last night.

Today's Sunshine Girl makes up for it.

What inside joke?

I'm just quoting from random books.

"As I get older, the tyranny that football exerts over my life, and therefore over the lives of people around me, is less reasonable and less attractive. Family and friends know, after long years of wearying experience, that the fixture list [schedule] always has the last word in any arrangement; they understand, or at least accept, that christenings or wedding or any gatherings, which in other families would take unquestioned precedence, can only be plotted after consultation. So football is regarded as a given disability that has to be worked around. If I were wheelchair-bound, nobody close to me would organise anything in a top-floor flat, so why would they plan anything for a winter Saturday afternoon?"
