South Couch Report : Los Angeles v Toronto
Part I Write Before The Match : Lol. LA Galaxy are weak. Toronto is the toast of the league. Like you could’ve predicted a reality where this could have happened.

The South Stand Report : Toronto v San Jose
The Part I Write Before The Match : Seriously, I don’t know what to put here. Toronto good. Anything they do seems to work, even to a small degree (like salvage a draw). San Jose has Wondolowski, who I am a fan of. Best hitman in league history. So, Toronto wins. I hope. Still predicting…

South Couch Report : Chicago v Toronto
The Part I Write Before The Match : Look, it was my birthday yesterday and I had a conflict. I could watch wrestling or TFC. While TFC should deliver, wrestling will deliver. So I watched this after the game was over. Unless Toronto wins by 7, I feel I made the correct choice (and if you don’t…
