Obviously Montreal and Columbus, but who else? Vancouver a little, but do people really don't like NY still?
Who do you consider TFC's rivals?

we had a good rivalry going with chicago but scheduling took care of that the last 2 seasons.
i dont care about columbus anymore
red bull beats the hell out of tfc often so i see the hatred twards them
Montreal, Colombus and New York. The fact that Marquez is with New York as well makes it worse.
Don't really consider Vancouver a rival, they have Hassli after all!
What he said.Originally Posted by Island Man
Montreal because of our history of rivalry in all sports (hockey, gridiron, baseball back in the day, you name it). It could be championship tiddly-winks, if Montreal is there, they will always be the #1 rival.
Columbus, not because of the Trillium cup, but because of how much negative history there is with that scummy city, taser-happy cops, media, Colombus FO, and xenophobes like Bill Archer.
New York, because their team has been unsportsmanlike, and our players have always considered them a rival.
We have to beat Vancouver to get the Voyageurs Cup, but besides that care only slightly about them, and that because they are Canadian.
MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto
1. columbus
2. columbus
3. columbus
i fuckin hate them.
Vancouver is a rival for me because of the way their fans acted during the NCC final.
montreal will be the only team i have true hatred towards
1 a - Montreal
1 b - Columbus
After that there are some teams I'd like to beat but I don't consider rivalries yet. Although the players said a few years ago that New York was the biggest rivalry.
I think it goes deeper than than OT.
Montreal. The end. To call any others rivals is just trying to hard.

Columbus and Montreal, lets not force anything else. Montreal because of obvious reason and KKKolumbus for obvious reasons lol.
I think Montreal will (and in some ways already has) be our main rivals just based on NCC play the past four years (along with other historical applications). CBus will go by the wayside as they are no longer to hold the "You've Never Beaten Us" montra over TFC.
Montreal. The hate is just rooted deep in my bones for any montreal team.
Columbus is second. Fuck them.
I have not hate for Montreal. But I hate pretty well any US based MLS team, outside of Portland, Seattle and Philadelphia. It is a Canadian nationalist thing with me.
Vancouver is our rivals. There's no hate or animosity, only competitive attitudes.
Montreal is our enemy. They are the anti-Toronto.
Columbus is our trolls. They are purely annoying and the only reason we get mad is because we let them piss us off.
There is no team I hate more than Limp Act, Crew, and Bulls. In that order, I would say, exist our most feverished rivals.
1. Montreal (too many reasons!)
2 . Vancouver (just because they're Canadian team...)
PS: I never ever cared about Columbus
Columbus because... it's Columbus. Vancouver because their sportsfans are douchebags. And Montreal becausof the history in other sports AND because of what happened in the 2008 NCC.
Potential rivals: Seattle.
TORONTO FC, 2017 MLS CHAMPIONS!!! (Still the greatest in league history!)
Seattle? What has seattle done to deserve our hate?

Montreal.
Who doesn't hate hipsters?
Obvious offseason thread is obvious.
sounds like a cascadian at heart
dun dun dun
I reserve 98 percent of my hate for Montreal and 2 percent for Columbus.
Im certain that once Montreal joins Columbus wont even matter anymore.
Vancouver kinda but mostly they dont really even show up on the radar unless its to berate my friends dad.

Montreal and Columbus. Vancouver I'm indifferent towards - they are thousands of miles away, for crying out loud.
Montreal I hate because it's Montreal. No further explanation necessary.
Columbus was no doubt a "thrown together" rivalry by the league at one time, but the clusterfuck that happened there a couple of years ago with the police, the fact that they had our number for several years, and the general shitty nature of their fans, has made me grow to hate them.
Seriously - fuck Columbus.
I also reserve a minor amount of hate for the New Jersey Energy Drinks

^ Agreed. Columbus and Montreal are real rivaries we have with histories. The others are fabricated or anticipated rivaries.
Montreal is #1. (Remember, they've never beaten us in a game).
Columbus I dislike. But the town is so irrelevant that I don't really care.
These are not our rivals, but I also dislike New York, Seattle, Vancouver. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Vancouver finish with a slightly worse points per game in 2011 than TFC had in 2007. And that was after hearing in the spring about how awesome they were going to be, and how strong their defense was going to be, and how they had a great shot at making the playoffs. Sure.... I called bottom three in the league, and I was right... and it felt so good to see them "exceed" my expectations. Seattle bugs me because they've had it too easy

1. Montreal

Of course, but I'm staying out of politics, language, culture, and commercial rivalry and just focusing on the sports rivalry at this point.I think it goes deeper than than OT.

Seattle = hipster douchebags
Columbus = Douchebags
1. Montreal (No need to explain why they're number enemy)
2. Vancouver (a lot of history with them in NCC)
3. Columbus (this rivalry is dying now because two other Canadian teams entering in MLS though).
That's all!
Seattle, New York etc.. don't even register on my radar. TFC and city of Toronto generally don't have any history with those cities and their teams.
