The lady who ran the halftime show said "FC" supporters. Why was she referring to the Montreal Impact FC fans while showing TFC fans?
Please ensure this does not happen again.
Love what you are doing thus far, but FC is unacceptable.
Dear John of CBC sports
The lady who ran the halftime show said "FC" supporters. Why was she referring to the Montreal Impact FC fans while showing TFC fans?
Please ensure this does not happen again.

While I agree that it is ridiculous to call them "FC" instead of TFC, I don't believe the Impact have FC in their name.
perhaps she was making reference to FC Dallas supporters for some reason

Relax they're still very new to this game and our team.
This is relaxed
Well then, adding FC to the end of Montreal Impact is like dropping the T from TFC.
Not exactly. That would indicate that all teams should have FC as part of their official name. Anyway, it doesn't matter.Originally Posted by J .
...keep it up guys...it's almost back to the point of being funny
TFC broadcasts have alot more pressing issues than what acronym Brenda Irving uses when referencing Toronto fans.
lets start on getting the players names right
carlos velez ... cough
c'mon you Reds!
Not this shit again.....
Absolutely! New board, same threads!
The lady on the "weather network" network made the same mistake yesterday afternoon....I promptly changed the channel and will only check the weather forecast on the internet from now on!!!
Ain't that the truth
sure they have more important things to worry about, that wasn't a Grade A broadcast. But getting the fundamentals down would go a long way. You have to learn to walk before you can run.

Fire brenda irving...useless c**t... the camera work seemed a little off even by cbc

f**k abouth detroit and Pissburgh anyways.

4 million people every game, apparently.
that can't be US viewers..haha...thought the canadian news says this years nhl playoff viewers are down?
Down slightly in Canada...up significantly in the US. Game 2 was the most-watched NHL playoff game of all-time.
enough already.
the cows are home.

really? shit, i had no idea. i guess americans love their monday night sports?
i had heard 2.3m in the u.s. for game 1 and 2.1 here.
i think you know better.
i also know there are other cities/towns/villages in this world which begin with the letter T which have FCs.
i don't mistake "TFC" for them.
playing dumb ain't no fun.

Game 2 = 2.5+ in the US and 1.87 in Canada.
And apologies...I read it wrong. It was the most-watched in six years. Not exactly "all-time". My mistake. Still, a vast improvement over last year.
that's impressive that it's the biggest in six years, even.
it's not like seeing game one led people to believe game two would be exciting.
and to draw the highest in six years while taking on monday night raw!?
props.
Yes the stupid CBC, how dare they perpetuate soccer coverage. Fuck they even had the nerve to put up an online stream on their website for people who didn't have the channel.
What a bunch of jerks!
I like CBC. I think they are really trying to come onboard and help TFC out and themselves at the same time. We should be supportive of the CBC.
Just what I was thinking! At least I got to watch the game! If it wasn't for CBC I would have just read the boxscore on the internet.
I think she was talking about FC United of Manchester actually...
1. Important to get the name right
2. We should be happy they are onboard and they should be happy we watch so they get ad revenue
3. There is no reason they cannot call it by its accurate name
4. Your posts on how you do not like this thread are irrelevant and I fail to see why you chose to post. Maybe I'll go delete the thread because YOU do not like it.
I will repost what I said.

Did I tell them to stop covering? No. I pointed out an important error the media continuously makes and something I will continuously point out.
If you don't like it, don't reply or read my threads. I couldn't care less.
