    The locker room is under the east stands at the north end. The outside wall has the Argos art on it (right by the stairs to go up to the upper deck). Is that what you mean?

    As a Sens fan, this drove me nuts while living in Toronto. I never got to see those seasons in the way that I'd like, not just because CBC didn't carry them, but also because the regional broadcasts...

    You're all over the "City must maximize the use of the publicly funded stadium" and yet you say MLSE should build their own stadium? Why on earth would the City want that?

    Unequal treatment for sure. TFC gets on TSN *sometimes.* (where were they this weekend?)

    Here's the thing, though - many (including myself) have interpreted your statements on the current data as declarative (ie no problems now, and so no need to worry). Perhaps that is wrong.

    No, but if it's *because* of the groundshare, fans will be rightfully upset.

    The only reason Raptors outsell the Leafs is because of the additional floor seating, both are over 100% sold over last season in the same facility. I'd call them a tie (700 seats aren't material to...
