MLS Wins and Losses: Week 17
With some new big signings hogging the limelight, it was some of the already existing stars of MLS who made the difference this week, for better or worse, big goals, nasty tackles, they brought it all this week. It started on Friday in Seattle as the Sounders took on DC with Supporters Shield implications very much a part of it. Seattle won 1-0 thanks to an 88th minute Tyrone Mears goal, but the big moment was when DC’s Fabian...
South Couch Report : Los Angeles v Toronto
Finally a week off from doing the stupidest commute ever. Nobody should need to take that much public transit to get to a footy match. Now I have the comfort of a couch in a basement and no concern if there’s a roof or not, midges, gnats, mosquitoes, rain, lightning, thunder, floods, uprising. Safety. Ahhhhh… Toronto are coming off a draw last week in the stupid stupid rain and are without “Captain America” (not my nickname)...
Toronto FC vs LA Galaxy: Missing Four Starters? Surely the Stars Will Align For A TFC Victory, Right?
That really was three games in eight days wasn’t it? A bit of a whirlwind that saw our Reds come away with only four points out of a possible nine; not exactly the expected result but oddly enough, not terrible either. The NYCFC game was a frustrating result (really they should have adjusted better and got at least a point), the Impact match was one of the most fun and well played games by TFC in well, a very long time and the...
MLS Wins and Losses: Week 16
As always, get this review with the usual smart arse interruptions and the actual sound clips for the interviews (Sigi Schmid, so rude, always eating while he talks) by listening to this week’s Vocal Minority Podcast, out Wednesday some time. Grrrrrrrr. This week was Heineken rivalry week in MLS. take away the lame, sponsored branding of it and I really like the basic idea of having a lot of derby games played on the same...
South Stand(ing in the rain) Report : Toronto v. D.C.
I should be in a better mood. Who wouldn’t be, after the masterclass of Wednesday night (as far as TFC goes). But then there’s the rain. Which isn’t as bad as suburban public transit rerouting around your stop without any notification of it. Which isn’t as bad as the longest train ever at a rail crossing. I missed 2 connecting GO busses… *deep exhale* sorry football and jokes. Football and jokes....
Toronto FC vs DC United: Will DCU Get Revenge or Will TFC Continue To Dominate?
Wednesday night was fun, wasn’t it? No I mean that, it WAS fun! Well played, some nice goals, they beat a team that was nipping at their heels and bounced back decisively after the difficult game against NYCFC – Fun! Today’s match against one of the best in DC United is a little more daunting; they’re currently the best team in the league and are more than likely looking for a little revenge after the loss...
