The South Stand Report : Toronto v Columbus
The manufactured cup. So unimportant and uninspiring to me and many others, I’m not even capitalizing it. Trophies are nice but meaningful trophies get me amped. This is not one of them. Nonetheless, it is a long weekend and the weather is cooperating so Hooray! A game! Toronto FC are coming off the Mr. Hyde…

Due to extreme heat, I’ve ditched the surely heat stroke-inducing weather of a golf tournament and opted for the live theatre of sport and spectating. #noRegrets Being on the road, I had the pleasure of missing the San Jose debacle and spending 45+ minutes yelling at a television in Pittsburgh.…

THE STARTING 11: Advantages That Could Help TFC Win
God bless Greg Vanney’s salmon-coloured cotton socks. Our tactical “student of the game” is just so tactically tactile that he managed to make his “MLS Cup contender” side chase a game and lose beyond all odds to one of the league’s lesser clubs. Did we mention that said lesser side had NINE MEN for a…
