    The Canadian Junior Hockey League does well with Friday night games, would it work in Toronto? is it the MLS that wants Saturday night games or the TV networks? I would prefer Friday nights as its a great way to start the weekend & it allows me time with the family on weekends, a perfect balance for me.
    cheers
    good atmosphere yesterday & it gives us hope for the rest of the season.

    Just what i want. Standing in the blazing sun, de-hydrated, no energy, so i can look at some girls in short shorts, who are there with their drunk boyfriends, and think its cool to be at a TFC game.
    I could be on a patio under an umbrella, with a frosty pint in hand watching them go by on college st. if i wanted to see that.
    Leave night games alone. All the games should be played at night. Especially from May to end of season.

    GO fucking get em, mike!

    I agree, day games in the summer get unbearable while there's no roof, the crowd wilts and the games slow down.

    Best atmospheres weve ever had have been at night, and the chicks are still hot.

    Night games or at least 4 o'clock kick offs. helps those of us with jobs that require saturday hours.

    If you want ladies, go to one of those joints that, believe it or not will actually charge less than BMO for their beers! You'll save money and not have to be bothered with a pesky football match distracting you.

    With a Saturday late afternoon or evening I can kick out an hour/ couple hours early or do a full day with a later kick off. I run out of vacation and "sick" days too quickly when it's a 12:30 or 1.

    Exactly.

    There are better places to go girl watching than at a football stadium.

    who goes to a soccer game to stare at chicks? priorities people...
    “Years have gone by and I’ve finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good football.

    I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: ‘A pretty move, for the love of God.’

    And when good football happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don’t give a damn which team or country performs it.”

    -Eduardo Galeano

    A soccer match is one of the only things in life I'd not mind a total sausage fest at, almost prefer it.

    Guys sing louder and are more likely to join in.


    Then again I'm married so I tend to keep my radar to a minimum for my own safety.

    yeah, imagine the Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and Greek leagues playing in July and August. They'd have to play at 9:00pm or later

    I like it when we complain about the game times. That means the game itself was pretty good.

    Afternoons in the spring & late fall; evening games in the summer.

    Like I said Barcelona has matches that start at 12:00 a.m.

    I know a lot of Benfica matches tend to be around 9:00 p.m.

    Are you sure about that? Last I checked all major games are played at night outside of maybe England. Look at the CL (ok it's a weekday but even there, games are played as late as 10 pm). I prefer night games. Soccer isn't meant to be played in 30+ degree sunlight.

    If you want the day games back then blame TSN. They want night games to fill broadcast slots while CBC preferred afternoon times for their sports weekend coverage.

    This:

    Any other reasoning is off base!

    Do you know which one I think is better...?

    NEITHER...

    I like the variety...

    Some games in the afternoon, some in the late afternoon, some at night...

    It gives them each their own feel, and pre-game / post-game activity...

    If our games were always, the exact same, it might grow stale...

    I like that there's variety in the game times...

    Night games seem to have a special feel - but that would die quickly if every game was a night game...

    Carts...

    Early games, afternoon games, or evening games. Doesn't matter. I get nothing done gameday and I'm just as hungover the next!

    I like the variety. Only change I'd make is to even out te schedule and try to keep the night games in the dead of summer.
