Episode #139 – 16/06/01 #FrankAssessment #supportLocalSeafood
The gang is all in to recap the humbling in the swamp, we look ahead to the Voyageurs Cup tie against Montreal and the usual malarkey. In this episode Mark mishears what actually happens to Seba, Duncan has the key to stopping Bradley Wright-Phillips, and Kristin surprisingly doesn’t like Tony’s idea for a Babouli nickname.…

THE STARTING 11: Best Things About Giovinco’s Injury
“Nooooooooooooooo!!!” was the shared refrain of many a TFC supporter when the club’s talisman and leading anti-top shelf crusader Sebastian Giovinco pulled up lame on Saturday. When the wee Italian tore the captain’s armband from his tattooed bicep he may have been tearing the club’s hopes for success along with it. Luckily – like TFC’s…

TFC Fall To The Energy Drinks 3-0, Lose Seba And Continue To Regress
Well that was fun. Oh wait, no it wasn’t. What a mess. And I was poorly prepared having not nearly enough booze in the house to deal with that match. Due to a confluence of anniversaries, power outages and work none of the VMP crew were really prepared to write a post-match for this…

Toronto FC vs New York Red Bulls: On The Road Again – Can TFC Repeat Past Success?
TFC vs NYRB ~ 7pm ET ~ Red Bull Arena ~ SN360 Ah the road, where Toronto FC is a Viking. Remember the halcyon days of the first eight games of the season? Where everything seemed possible? Now a four game home stand later, TFC has come away with only five points from a possible…

Episode 138 – 16/05/25 #Babulous
It’s an appropriately undermanned podcast this week as both Tony and Mark miss this one with hamstring issues. Playing the Mo Babouli role off the bench is podcasting’s Duane Rollins, and also we have the most interesting special guest panelist ever, Andrea Pirlo’s in the studio! Be sure to catch this one, the professor’s going…

The South Stand Report : Toronto v Columbus
Are they sputtering? Stalling? Misfiring? It’s so difficult to wrap my head around it. Toronto and not look bad but they haven’t exactly looked great, and we’re expecting them to be great. We all know they have the potential to be great. I don’t know about the players, but three games in eight days is…

Toronto FC vs Columbus Crew. It’s Rivalry Weak. Grrrrrrrrr.
Another fucking home game? Ugh. If I wanted to go to games this often I’d be a basketball or hockey fan, I pine for a more balanced schedule, but fine, I’ll go I guess. At least this late afternoon game (thanks Sportsnet and TFC, that’s some great late rescheduling.) should be more pleasant temperature wise…

The South Stand Report – Toronto v New York City
I’m still tingling from the funnest game of recent memory, the Vancouver loss from the weekend. Why can’t they all be like that (results notwithstanding)? NYC is tied for first in the eastern conference winners of their last three, David Villa has as many goals as Giovinco, and somehow Pirlo is still playing. Will we…

Toronto FC vs New York City FC: The Big Smoke Takes On The Big Apple
Wednesday, May 18th ~ BMO Field ~ 7pm ET ~ TSN4 Saturday was fun eh? Not exactly what anyone had hoped for, or expected of TFC’s second home game. However, the team will have had little time to dwell on past mistakes with two more games this week against two of their Eastern Conference rivals.…
