The South Couch Report : Houston v Toronto
I am so tired. I suppose I could’ve gone to bed, but I didn’t see the tweet until 35 minutes ago that the game was delayed until 9pm tonight. If I drink this last 5-hour energy drink, I’m afraid I’ll be dead by halftime. You want a preview? Huh? Maybe you should have read this…

Episode 149 – 16/08/12 #MLSLiveAndChill
Tony is off with a hamstring injury (#hamstrong) so that leaves us with 75% of the gang present to reflect on the victories versus Salt Lake and New England, look ahead to Houston, talk a little bit of Canadian Women’s National Team at Rio, question our TFC optimisms and the usual malarkey. In this episode…

The South Stand Report : Toronto v New England
After what can only be described as an “interesting” performance, Toronto is on a win streak. Moreso, they’re on a home win streak, and they’re unbeaten at home in their last 10 matches. I know, I’m shocked too, and I went to them all. Not to be outdone, the Tea Terrorists TM road form isn’t anything…

The South Stand Report : Toronto v Salt Lake
You guys! OMG you guys! We’re going to win the league! Everything is amazing you guys! I love Toron… *needle scratch* Whaddoya mean Cheyrou is out with a hamstring injury? Gah… I know, I know, he wasn’t there for the 3-0 beating to Columbus anyways, but I figure it’s a bit of coasting if you…

The South Stand Report : Toronto v Columbus
The manufactured cup. So unimportant and uninspiring to me and many others, I’m not even capitalizing it. Trophies are nice but meaningful trophies get me amped. This is not one of them. Nonetheless, it is a long weekend and the weather is cooperating so Hooray! A game! Toronto FC are coming off the Mr. Hyde…

South Stand Report : Toronto v D.C.
Well this is a delight. Due to extreme heat, I’ve ditched the surely heat stroke-inducing weather of a golf tournament and opted for the live theatre of sport and spectating. #noRegrets Being on the road, I had the pleasure of missing the San Jose debacle and spending 45+ minutes yelling at a television in Pittsburgh.…

South Stand Report – Toronto v Chicago
A little humid, but with a cool breeze. Damp, but it rained lightly. Feels like it’s gonna be a nice night for a football match. I don’t need to update you on a preview because you did your homework reading Kristin’s write up. Chicago is terrible with a bunch of unknown players, and Toronto is…

Episode 144 – 16/07/07 #internationalSexFiend
The gang is all here to talk about the cup glory in Vancouver, the draw against Seattle, look ahead to Chicago, the transfer window and the usual silliness. In this episode, Tony questions certain player’s bone density, Mark is not a fan of in-stadium pyrotechnics of any kind, no one is safe from Kristin’s hot…

The South Stand Report : Toronto v Seattle
Why can’t I be injured for either an unknown amount of time or 6-8 weeks. All the cool kids are out 6 weeks. Irwin. Bradley. National Cup Hero Wil Johnson. Even Altidore. I’d like a paid vacation, hobbling around with a lower body injury. OK, maybe not, but the point is a vacation. So Toronto…
