South Stand Report : Toronto v. Kansas City
For the one of you who reads this blog and do not live anywhere near here, Canada is a magical place that has some rather dysfunctional weather systems. Take this past week. We had days where you leave the house for work in a light winter jacket, and by the time you’re ready to head home, you might not need a jacket whatsoever. Then the following day it’s cold and geting colder. And wetter. And I’m not prepared for...
South Couch Report : Vancouver v Toronto
So Vancouver is missing their starting keeper over a red card, so this is a good time to sit their starter keeper, right? Seems foolish. Bono gets the start because of squad rotation. Of course. This should all be about missing Giovinco, but he’s hurt and went to Italy, and probably taking it easy. The upside is Ricketts will start the game and the legendary partnership with Altidore will surely flourish. Other changes include...
The South Couch Report – Philadelphia v Toronto
Man, what a nice vacation. Sun. Boat. Music. Tequila. I missed a penalty save and that’s about it.

Man, they look cold. Maybe a...
The South Stand Report : Toronto v Montreal, 2nd leg
I’m not about to write anything you haven’t already heard or don’t already know. You know what happened. You know. It’s been a blur. It’s incredible. This is still bonus time. I just wanted one home playoff game. Just one, and I’d be happy. Everything else is bonus time. Now we’re on the cusp of a fourth. I genuinely believed three months ago that this team was good enough to “win it all”. There’s a consistency, resiliency,...
The South Stand Report : Toronto v Philadelphia, Knockout Edition
Well my goals have been met for this team. All I asked for was playoffs at home this season and I’ve got them. I’m not about to ask for a new goal just yet that would be greedy. As far as I’m concerned comma this is all bonus round if they win. To be honest I am looking forward to the game against New York on Sunday even though we haven’t beaten Philadelphia just yet. This may be the perfect situation as...
