Word is Kerfoot is also looking at other sites around downtown, although quite clearly the current site would be his preference Im sure he hasn't lumped all his eggs in one basket. If the current site fails I would not be surprised to see them play af BC Place for a few years, but I would be surprised if during those years new plans for a stadium were not in motion.

I think Kerfoot has said publically that he is only interested in having the stadium in/adgacent to downtown, so that would effectively rule out the other sites discussed. I know personally I would be far more inclined to go to a caps game if they were downtown than Richmond, despite any transit connections the suburban site may have.

Also Miami is not necessarily a lock. Sure they do have Barcelona backing them, but most people overlook that Miami was already once awarded an MLS franchise and it failed miserably and folded only a few years later. I still think they have a strong bid, but a history like that would certainly raise a red flag with the MLS brass.
