TFC have been bad for so long, I am actually surprised they still have the attendance numbers they do, so good for them. But don't slag on the CFL to make your point.
Look at King10, CFL and TFC / CdnMNT fan and supports then all, and they banned him because apparently 'All for One', means only TFC and no other outdoor sport
I have no particular affinity for soccer having never played it or followed it, but that said I welcome its development in Canada at the amateur and pro levels, as I'm sure most people do.

So I don't get the persecution complex that soccer fans, at least in Toronto, seem to have... honestly, if someone sat there all day running down lacrosse and griping about it all the time you'd conclude that they have a mental disorder. But soccer fans grousing about other sports is just par for the course. These TFC fans sound like some sort of hyper-intense anime nerds living in an all-encompassing bubble. Somebody should tell these guys to lighten up... it's MLS soccer for Christ's sake.
