To me, playing soccer in a baseball stadium conjures up images of a soccer field jammed awkwardly into Yankee Stadium or some such.
Soccer at Skydome would be far from that scenario. The field would fit nicely in there and it would feel like a soccer stadium with the stands wrapping neatly around the field. Skydome is perfectly capable of hosting soccer.
I get the "BMO is soccer's home" mindset but in terms of image and as something to show off to the rest of the world, Skydome absolutely dominates BMO. It looks far more polished and professional as compared to BMO.
