    His numbers are more like the historical FCD support. Keep in mind they are anchored by that awful stadium location too. Once they picked up the TFC marketing guy they did a complete 180 in terms of...

    We're backtracking here but for the purpose of clarity we're basically talking about the merits of investing *additional* money in a MLS team.

    The point is business A and B are essentially unconnected. My ability to sell ice cream and used cars are separate. Someone might say "well you have to package both businesses together" and it is...

    With my (and I suspect your) value-oriented approach? No, non-starter. But this isn't a value play, it's a growth property. You need someone who builds things and takes some chances. Basically you...

    Should acknowledge the damage the poor management of the past has done. If they had capitalized on the initial momentum the market would look a lot better than it has today.
