MLSE response: a waffle is a dangerous weapon.
“What the world needs is more geniuses with humility; there are so few of us left.”
TFC is also very "waffly"

This waffle story was all over the radio this morning. Charges have been laid by the coppers, etc. it's a pity leaf fans can't organise themselves. It'd be hard to charge everyone if they all threw waffles on the ice and MLSE would ave to think long and hard before they attempted anything like it.
To develop the argument I would say that at some point, somebody had to be the first person to throw a hat onto the ice in order to celebrate the achievment of a player scoring 3 goals (well, duh). The notion took off and the event became known as a 'hat-trick'. This became widely accepted and I suspect no-one has been charged for participating in the act.
Here's my point : I would submit here that similar circumstances are afoot, however for different reasoning. A waffle thrown out on the ice would appear to indicate a poor overall performance of the team on the ice. Not singularly as the fault of the players themselves - as they cannot be wholly responsible for the general lack of talent - but also that of ownership and management who assembled and continue to steer the operation.
The only real consideration is to not throw the waffle during play, but rather wait until the game ends and have at it. This way there's little concern for player injury... and you'd be sure to see them flee the ice after the final whistle.
I'd like to see that.
a ha ha heh he hoo.. ha
wow..... I see 3 standing fans.
but does he think that only 1 in 19,000 was absolutely let down by the team?Hunter said the team had a tough game.
“We lost the game and the fans are showing their frustration. But only one person in 19,000 threw anything on the ice.”

Pat Onstad, can't hire him because we already have a goalkeeping coach?
Does this mean that we wont hire a GM or Head Coach because we already have two? My guess, when Dasovic is down graded to assistant, he will want out and he will go to Montreal. Mark my words.
Richard Hastings is still unattached, wonder if he will retire and turn to coaching?
"In less than 90 days the Vancouver Whitecaps and Toronto FC had better be ready. Canadian soccer history will be made when the two go head to head on the opening weekend of Major League Soccer's 2011 season."
Holy shit! It had not dawned on me we are less than 90 days out from the first game. That realization does not make me feel too good about next season.
We are so far from being ready!
Did the USA , of all countries, just fix soccer? - C. Ronaldo, May 27th commenting on the FBI-led investigations into fraud and corruption throughout FIFA.
and no mention if the Eggo waffles were given out as a free promo item, which they might have been.
at least TFC is smart enough to give out samples (like those mini cheese things) at the half or after the match.

MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto
Fair enough. And that may save our ass when we play them in March.
But I could care less about other teams and if they are ready or not. That's no excuse for us not being ahead of the game. In fact, it's a glaring opportunity for TFC to take advantage of.
In a league designed for parity on the field, TFC should be working to be miles ahead of every other organization in terms of front office, back office, scouting, academy, etc.
If we really want to be #1 we have to compete and be the best in every aspect of running a football club; not just the first team roster.
Waffle guy is my hero.
FREE WAFFLE GUY
Waffle sales will be going up. I think Kellog's is secretly happy about this because they have all of this free publicity and they didn't have to do anything.
Less than 90 days to go and we don't even have the foundation of this team's management in place.
We are so screwed.
I love waffles and I think its a brilliant use of them. "Leafs need to wake up and eat some breakfast or something" LMAO
