    nice dream... but that seems a little over-sized for Toronto.
    That looks like about 40,000 seats in there.

    After a couple of World Club Championships we'll need the space.

    why?

    although i will note that i saw a bunch of seagulls circling bitchy at the Canada game, so it looks like her effect has worn a bit

    huh?

    what's there to hate??

    It's just a little perch for a hawk??? Do you find yourself bothered by it during game-play?
    Do you say, "Damn, I missed that goal because I was distracted by that damn Bitchy perch!" ???

    She is a useful fixture upon BMO... she stops the seagulls from shitting in your beer and nachos, and she stops the gulls from flying in front of Barrett's awesome kicks!

    are most of you on crack?

    This stadium would be the crown jewel of MLS. And within reason considering the dimensions of the stadium in proportion to the immediate area surrounding it

    ...fuck Red Bull Park.. BMO of the future will be the centrepiece of the league

    1. install grass
    2. better amenities i.e. bathrooms, restaurants, new team clubhouses, practice facilities, administrative offices, more luxury suites, 2 HD screens
    3. electronic billboards, solar panel roof
    4. 2 phase seat expansion, 30,000 seats in 2009 40,000-45,000 in 2016-18
    5. new team sponsor, i.e. Tim Hortons, TD Bank, Scotia Bank, RBC, RIM
    6. get ready for 2018, 2022 World Cup
    sounds good.

    the stadium above (Philly's, Chester Stadium) is a nice one too....

    It looks misshapen. The roof is kind of like an umbrella, not really attached to the stadium, but held over it. I've never seen anything like that before.

    I would never go for Tim Horton's as the major sponsor. TFC'd look like a grownup timbits team.

    Toronto could use a new landmark...CN tower and Skydome are getting pretty outdated if you ask me. BMO could be a nice candidate

    wow, that's quite the step down. Personally, if they wanted BMO to be magnificent, they should use a different design, I'm not a fan of the whole toilet seat look.

    The thing i love about this concept is the imposing size of the structure, something not found anywhere else in this league. There are no other stadiums (except RFK if that thing ever filled up) that an opposing player would walk into and think "ah crap, today's gonna suck". The biggest SSS in the league is HDC and it looks like a minor league baseball stadium.
