South Stand Report : Toronto v Chicago
Umbrella, poncho, back up poncho, wellies, goggles, water wings, I think I’m ready. It’s supposed to be gorgeous out there today, sunny, warm enough, and playing a weak Chicago side.

Missing ten starters, including six defenders. 3-4-3 formation. Dempsey is healthy. This will be an adventure in patience or a test of masochistic limitations. On to the match : 1′ – Of course the wife calls. 10pm on a Saturday night. 6′ – GOAL – Well that’s probably the game winner. Dempsey pops the ball…
