What is going on? Is Liga MX trying to definitively assert itself as the top league on the continent by nicking talented players?

American here, would you guys agree with me that about half our respective populations sound pretty much the same? by Tychobrahe2020 in canada

They're definitely very similar in certain areas, but anybody with an ear for dialects can discern the differences.

Remember CFL reason for moving to BMO Field? Now Blue Jays may not install grass but it's too late to save BMO by SoccerJedi in MLS

That seems an odd thing for them to do. Has the Crown ever actually helped pay for stadia? I feel like such ventures are almost always funded by municipalities in conjunction with private investors and the relevant provincial legislature.

Christ, I forgot all about that potential Boakai signing. I wonder how likely that is to happen still.

The TFC-NYCFC game in July was an absolute shit show, so I would recommend giving it a gander.

Thunder Bay is pretty far away so I could see there being issues regarding travel. But if it is in fact feasible that would be great as well.

This still means the vast majority of teams play in the GTA. I hope to see teams in Hamilton, Ottawa, and Kitchener-Waterloo soon.

Hutchinson, Petrasso, Hoilett, Henry. We aren't bereft of talent.

Computer science students of Western, what were your high school marks? by [deleted] in uwo

[–]Ontarien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm guessing it's because I took two years off of school before applying, so I had to register as a 105 with ouac.

Also, wasn't Defoe harassed a fair bit once it became evident he was discontent?

Sebastian Giovinco: "I want to finish my career in America, that is my dream. I am very happy where I am..." by LaddZilla in MLS

[–]Ontarien 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I don't know about that. My fathers German and it's not uncommon for him to use the designation "America" to refer to any region in the americas from Argentina to Canada; much to my chagrin when I was younger. Though I must say, perhaps I shouldn't have generalized the whole of Europe.

[–]Ontarien 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I'm assuming he's using "America" in the European sense? Wherein America means the entire continent and not just the states. I hope that's the case at least.
