Jozy Altidore – Flat track bully?
2 goals from the debutant star striker and 3 points in the bag. The obvious comparisons to last year are obvious (and for anyone looking for a lazy ‘yeah, but’ can continue all year really, 9 points from the first 4 games, yeah 2014!, 19 points from 11? 2014, 3rd place and comfortably in a play off spot at the end of August? 2014), but it’s best not to do that really, different team and situation and all that, more...
Eastern Conference Preview, predictions.

Toronto FC vs Costa Rica u23: The fight for fifth
One week to go before the season theoretically begins and there’s one last game for TFC to finish off the IMG tournament. After stumbling through the group stage and finishing in 3rd place, behind the Red Bulls and USL’s Oklahoma City Energy FC, they now play off for 5th overall against the 3rd place finisher in the other group, which is rather weirdly Costa Rica’s under 23 team. The first team was rested for...
