The South Couch Report: Toronto vs Columbus.
The part I write before the game: South Couch Report? goddamn do you ever go to games any more? Back off, I’m sick (well, more recovering from being sick really, which wasn’t helped by going to Tuesday’s game) and also, fuck you, I went to a game at BMO Field in February! My hardcoriness is…

The South Couch Report : Colorado v Toronto, CONCACAF Champions League, first leg (FIGHT!)
Didn’t I write one of these buggers, like, a few weeks ago?!? AGAIN!?! Ugh. Remember that off-season we used to have. From early October until mid-March. Oh those halcyon days gone by. Now we’re in this bastardized version of Champions League (ummm… groups?) and we’re playing the most vanilla f’ing side in the first round.…

VMP Final Countdown 2017: Number 16 – Benoît Cheyrou
Highest: 10 Lowest: 20 Average ranking: 15.96 Mark: 18 – I feel like this is a bit of a eulogy. Benoit Cheyrou became iconic. He wasn’t here for very long, but his contributions and class were hard to ignore. He came on against Montreal in the semi-finals and ‘saved us all’. And he did. What…

The South Couch Report – Columbus v Toronto, 1st Leg
Ok so this report is gonna be different as I am just going to watch it and fill in the blanks at the half and end. This isn’t the game that I want to miss something because I was typing up a stupid thought about Cooper flailing about and giving up a ball of the…

Toronto FC vs Columbus Crew ~ Tues. Nov. 21st ~ 8pm ET ~ MAPFRE Stadium ~ TSN1/3/4/5 Hey everyone, remember MLS? No really it’s that league we’ve been following for years – you know, the one that we’ve been waiting ages (it really does feel like forever) for to finish the post-season. Sure there’s been…

South Couch Report: Toronto vs New York, 2nd leg.
The Part I Write Before The Match : South Couch again? Yeah, there are reasons, they should be overcomeable but for whatever reason, I seem to have lost the idea that going down to BMO Field rather than watching on tv is something that I HAVE to do. Shocking drop off in standards, or welcome…
