Toronto FC vs New England Revolution: Home Opener!

Toronto FC vs New England Revolution ~ March 17th, 730pm ET ~ BMO Field ~ TSN 4/5 It’s home opener time!  After getting their season of to a near perfect start, Toronto FC had a week off (oh CCL, one day…sigh), which given the team’s need to still gel, as well as heal some knocks isn’t a bad thing at all.  Tonight – 730 on a Sunday night is a perfectly cromulent time for a football match – TFC take...

Toronto FC vs Sporting KC: Home Opener Time! Can The Reds Beat The Sporks For The First Time In Four Years?

Toronto FC v Sporting KC ~ March 31st ~ 7:30pm ET ~ BMO Field ~ TSN4 Home opener time!  The 2017 MLS season is in full swing, but we’ve yet to have a chance to watch Toronto FC at BMO Field.  Of course this season isn’t like the last two, with us waiting until May to make the trek down to BMO, and I for one am actually pretty happy about that.  I know that the weather isn’t going to be particularly good (get that...

It makes us wonder, what...

THE STARTING 11: TFC Lawn Products

Congrats to the Redblacks – whatever one of those is – now get off our lawn! Yes the mulch-munching menace that is the CFL’s Grey Cup has come and gone from Canada’s National Soccer Stadium and leaves only the pitch condition fears of TFC supporters in its wake. This will be the biggest test so far for the genuinely laudable job BMO Field’s grounds crew has performed so far in 2016 but they do have some...

THE STARTING 11: Best Parts of Living With The Argos

CAW! No it’s not Bitchy Blanks time but that’s the sound of yours truly eating a little crow over the doom and gloom feelings I held about sharing BMO Field with The Argos. Like many out there, I fully expected the “soccer experience” to be akin to that of Gillette Stadium North this season. However, credit where credit is due – the grounds crew have done an excellent job in minimizing the effects....
