    Grimes. What a clown. Clearly working to keep Argos in the mix. Not doing a good job.

    Argos get their mention, bringing back home to where they should be, by the lake on the EX grounds.

    BMO there, despite pulling out of the jersey sponsorship, with all the profits they rake in, just renew.

    Out of uniform, the General actually looks a little bit like Buster Keaton.

    So basically the Argos are coming, its just a matter of time from what I gather. I am honestly not opposed to it as long as I never see a single line, the pitch is maintained AND we have grass. Hybrid grass seems to work, I'd be alright with that as well. It'll be funny to see the Argos play the Stamps at BMO with all the red seats.

    Braley, owner of the orphan Argos, must love Grimes. Too many years of the Argos getting something for nothing might have contributed to their present state of "fading fast".

    You would think that decades of playing second fiddle to baseball would have inspired them to create something of their own...

    It is clear that the Blue Jays don't want the Argos on their future natural grass. Why would TFC want the Argos on their present natural grass?

    So glad I am not attending the ssh event tonight...

    If you look at this picture there is a ton of room between the top of the south stand and the roof, presumably for the expandable capacity. But it probably won't be great for keeping sound in.

    So the roof is part of phase two then? So just expanded capacity for next season and then roof 2 years from now? That kinda sucks since I only want the roof and actually don't want the expanded capacity.

    Can't believe these renders don't include images of a Leafs outdoor winter classic.

    Because, really, having that for the Leafs 100th anniversary is probably a big factor in MLSE plunking down the dough.

    Or a blunt reminder of what the first wet autumn will bring should an unwanted ground share occur:

    Yes, but has anybody noticed how much bigger the wad of season tickets scalpers have this season compared to last?

    Wonder if they will invest so much next season in buying thousands of tickets.

    You gotta think, already they're losing the supply/demand game. ML$E is really going to be hard pressed to get the building filled...

    Lower SSH prices??? maybe?

    I seriously doubt that.

    At the seat relocation event, do we get access to the new seats as well?

    My biggest concern is whether or not top half of 110 remains a supporters section, and how much of an increase in cost we will see from the $450 for a pair I paid this year.

    It's coming it's coming. I had to attend, then transcribe, write, and then submit. Takes a few hours but I assure you, we're covering it.

    I'm guessing this is where the south seat stands could potentially roll under if the Argos move is confirmed
