    ooh, ooh, can we have a mascot as well? bmo the beaver! cos beavers are canadian and we play at bmo field, it'd be awesome. and he could conduct contest between the crowd to see which section is noisier, and that section would get free tshirts. freakin' awesome.

    same can be said about mascots, but clearly there are LOTS of
    big international clubs that use both cheerleaders and mascots.

    I always take issue when people say that 'traditional clubs don't ____'
    when a lot of the most storied and traditional clubs DO use modern gimmicks.



    ^ yes it's lame, but if one of the biggest clubs in the world does it....



    ^ Boca Juniors use very scantily clad cheerleaders, but they are from South America....




    for the record, I don't want any of these gimmicks to be use for TFC,
    but the idea that 'traditional clubs' don't use them, or that they just
    "don't belong in the world of football" is far from the reality.

    So the biggest club in the world does it (you ARE so unbiased). I don't like the distractions at any sports event, traditional distraction aside.

    Half time is for me to pee.

    All those with grown-up bladders should be punished.

    I said yes, but I think they should be used sparingly. Like at Half time..and that's it.

    A curse on all of you who don't want hot semi-dressed women dancing in front of me.

    A curse on your families.
    A curse on your households.
    A curse on your dicks.

    What does this have to do with American style football? Cheerleaders are found in every sport around the world...but somehow football/soccer is too sacred? Funny enough...in other parts of the world, it isn't.

    Sometimes you guys get too hung up on "image". GIVE ME MY HOT SCANTILY CLAD WOMEN DAMMIT!

    It IS hard to say no to this!! But.....NO! Unless it involves lap-dances at the half.

    i don't think the girls are needed. i think half time should be geared towards kids at the game. those are the ones who will develop the sport in the future, not the cheerleaders.

    There is a direct correlation between level of female nudity to the price men are willing to pay for entertainment (probably life in general :-))...so this must be a ploy to raise ticket prices ! Oh and I voted yes

    You know what...kids will not remember some dumb mascot giving them a t-shirt when they grow up.

    Kids will grow up and want to be supporters. Otherwise it becomes something they did as kid that they outgrew over time.

    No need to gear anything towards the kids. Keep the core market as is 18-45

    No one has been able to figure this out.

    Isn't the objective of cheerleaders to get your team/fans going? As long as they are in RED and CHEERING for OUR team, why not have them? It gives the lovely women of the GTA a chance to be part of something and possibly help out their futures. As for the people that say it's not part of football, take a look at Jack's post, which by the way is GR8!

    As a general rule I think we should try to become more like the Argentine league and this is certainly no exception.

    i don't think you remember what being a kid is like Jack. i was 6 years old when i went to see my first pro game, and it had a huge effect on my love of the game. I'm not saying we should fall into the trap of catering to kids, but i would certainly like to see more of them doing something for half time than cheerleaders.

    and you can't tell me a kid wouldn't remember kicking a ball around in front of thousands of people in a pro stadium.

    Yeah, you've got a good point.

    My issue was with catering to kids completely, but I don't mind giving them a way to feel more involved. Just don't make them the main focus. And this is from a doting dad of a 4-year-old princess who has me wrapped around her little finger
