The White Caps coming downtown?

[Metroblogging Vancouver] Plus if the Whitecaps aren't exhiled out in Burnaby they might start drawing bigger crowds, which would be nice. It'll also be a nice venue when Vancouver hosts larger soccer/football events like the upcoming FIFA under-20 World Cup in 2007.
