Next camera purchase: Canon enthusiasts

I currently shoot a Canon 60d. I usually shoot kids sports and some indoor low-light stuff. I have a Sigma 70-200 2.8, Canon 24-105 f/4L, and Canon 50mm f/1.8.
I am wanting to upgrade my camera body and can't decide between the soon-to-be-released 7DMarkii or the 5dmarkiii.
The price for the 5D is about $600 higher. Thanks

My 60D shoots about 6fps, similar to the 5D, but the new 7D shoots 10fps. I'm wondering how many "professionals" shoot sports with that 5D.

As a 6 year Nikon user, I can say that I wish I had a 5D.

I really want to keep my 60d as a backup, sell my Sigma 70-200 2.8 and get the Canon 70-200 2.8is L II. The lens costs a fortune, but it's supposed to be the best.

I have the Nikon version of that Sigma. It is a beast. It is effectively a 105-350mm on my D7000, which has a crop factor of 1.5x
It is 90-95% of the lens that the comparable Nikon or Canon equivalent are.
The question you have to ask yourself is whether or not that extra 5-10% is worth the extra $800-1000. For me, the answer has always been no, because I don't get paid for my photography.

The loss of range with my crop body 60d to a full frame 5D is a concern. I don't really want to start needing 300mm and 400mm lenses.
