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…

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…

The South Couch Report : Orlando v Toronto
You know what I’m glad to be doing? Watching a game and the air conditioning is on. #bragging Toronto has been less than convincing on the pitch. Scoring has been dry so it’s hard to be optimistic that they’ll light up the scoreboard. Cheyrou has been a rock in the midfield, as has Moor in…

Episode 142 – 16/06/23 #BaborioOrOsouli
