Toronto FC News Release
Over 1100 Toronto FC supporters are heading to Columbus to cheer on our Reds for the season opener on March 29th. And we haven't stopped counting because we're hoping that you'll join! We're working with Proway Tours to offer packages to Columbus for $90.00. That price includes a ride to and from Crew stadium and a ticket to the game. Call Doug at Proway, he's ready to answer your questions, and more importantly - to book your spot! Read more about it here. [http://mlsefans.com/index.cfm?n35167s1226c1347197t1239o11637]

So, some of you are wondering what the heck is going on with this cup business...if you missed the story, read it here. [http://mlsefans.com/index.cfm?n35167s1226c1347197t1239o11638] There are two main reasons:
1 - Columbus is our closest geographic competitor, so we can go there in a day, fill the stands and support TFC.
2 - Columbus challenged us. Seriously, could we say no to a challenge? And, might we add, Columbus is getting nervous with all the awesome fans we have...and the trash talk coming from our front office!
COLUMBUS, YOU ARE GOING DOWN! Here's to Danny scoring at the 24th minute!
A cup/trophy/plate will be designed, which will be awarded to the team with the most points after the three meetings this year. And since you did such an awesome job at naming Bitchy, we're looking to you for help.
The online poll is open on torontofc.ca to take your submissions to name the big event. [http://mlsefans.com/index.cfm?n35167s1226c1347197t1239o11639] Entries will be accepted until Wednesday, February 20th @ 5 PM. Shortly after, with Columbus' input, we will narrow down the best submissions, and you can vote for your favourite from February 25th - March 5th.
