Naps are the best, aren’t they? They’re a great mid-day recharge, and they help when you’re looking forward to yet another away match and not entirely optimistic. Montreal has a good home record, but this is the first one outside at home. Totally not a dome scenario. Toronto stole the last game, can they thieve…

South Couch Report : Mexico v Canada II – The Mexining
