Thread: Bring Back The Blizzard on July 1 - Cda Cup

  1. #1

    Default Bring Back The Blizzard on July 1 - Cda Cup

    A campaign (albeit in its embryonic stage) has been started by myself, a magazine publisher, an insurrectionist and a print reporter to convince the esteemed Paul Beirne and TFC to wear Toronto Blizzard uniforms for the July 1st Canada Cup match versus the Vancouver Whitecaps.

    We have already received approval and encouragement from Joe Parolini, the owner of the Toronto Blizzard trademark so now we need your support from the grassroots level!

    I am hoping that we can also add the Blizzard alumni to the event in order to honour the club that existed from 1979 to 1993.

    Thanks for your support!

    Hopefully the Blizzard are put back on the field at some point. A reunion is great, but I would love to see the Blizzard's red and white playing again.

    How about a USL First Division team for TO ?

    I really believe a USL D1 team would do better in Toronto now than they did prior to TFC. Play the home games at BMO, no doubt in my mind that there would be 6000 to the 'new' Blizzard games.

    mind u that is if the team is run right, not like the Lynx.

    I dont think TFC should wear and Blizzard gear.

    Why not bring back the Toronto Metro-Croatia while we are at it?

    I'd love to see 3 time World Superstar Champion Brian Budd back for one more game. I think he could still kick some players butts!

    Actually, I think there might a good point hidden in there.

    A USL Div 1 team, run well, might actually do very well.

    People now have 'permission' to go see soccer here.

    Exactly. The Blizzard were very well known in TO and across Canada.

    Why not? It's an acknowledgment of those who worked to build the game here and the city's past teams.

    By that thinking, the Raptors should not have worn Huskies uniforms, the Leafs should not have worn St. Pat's uniforms, and the Argos should not....uhhh....hey! Look over there!


    Yoing...

    Toronto Croatia doesn't exist?
