Episode 88 – 15/05/26 #SonOfAPitch
Well, it was bound to happen. The gang gets wrapped up in one topic so long that it just becomes it’s own episode. And striking while the iron is hot, here’s our discussion on the current dramas at BMO Field. Tune in later this week, for the regular episode with the usual malarky. Click here…

South Stand Report : Toronto v. Portland
What a week. Full of emotions, frustrations and secretive deals and negotiations, years of broken promises, misleading statements, and it finally came to a head. The Leafs signed Babcock. Kidding, fuck the Leafs. Pointyball is getting shoehorned into our once soccer specific stadium. (seriously, fuck them) So now that that dog and pony show has…

The South Stand Report : Toronto v Houston
Fucking finally. I mean c’mon. This has taken forever it seems. The club made for parody/television that is Toronto FC has its home opener on mother’s day. And on this mother’s day, I am thankful for how moms can easily compromise for their kids. For example: do brunch and am absolved from dinner. (thanks mom)…

South Couch Report : Philadelphia v Toronto
One game win streak! Hottest club in MLS! Altidore for MVP! Sometimes I just can’t help it. Sometimes it just writes itself. This is the final game of the club made for TV as next weekend is a home game. I miss going out to the park. Misfit football at times, but I love game…

The South Couch Report : Orlando v Toronto
Bath salts! I’ve figured out how we’re going to get a 3 hour break tonight. Let’s get some of the locals at few bags and then let them sit front row. Mayhem ensues and when this game wraps up at 12:07 EDT, Toronto gets a 1-1 draw. So keys to victory are : 1) supporter…
