Vocal Minority: Facts, Frivolity, Football

  • MLS Wins and Losses. Week 9

    As always, you can get the audio version of this with interruptions and diversions by listening to this week’s Vocal Minority Podcast, out soon. We’ll start this week with the top of the Eastern conference where the 4 teams who’ve so far shown themselves to be above the desperate scramble for 5th and 6th played…

  • THE STARTING 11: Headlines MLSE Will Use To Make Argos To BMO Seem Positive

    The day that none of us have been waiting for since 2007 seems likely to be confirmed any moment now (if it hasn’t already by time you read this). BMO Field, Canada’s first “soccer specific” stadium will soon be downgraded to a “soccer first” stadium and then, sometime in the summer of 2016, a “kinda,…

  • South Couch Report : Philadelphia v Toronto

    South Couch Report : Philadelphia v Toronto

    One game win streak! Hottest club in MLS!  Altidore for MVP! Sometimes I just can’t help it.  Sometimes it just writes itself. This is the final game of the club made for TV as next weekend is a home game.  I miss going out to the park.  Misfit football at times, but I love game…

  • Ashtone Morgan Turns 100: Happy 100 Toronto FC Appearances Ashtone!

    It’s fitting in a way, that Ashtone Morgan is the first Toronto FC player to get 100 appearances with the club.   Sure there are arguments to be made for others that have served – Stefan Frei, Doneil Henry and Dwayne De Rosario are the ones that gets mentioned the most often – but myself…

  • Toronto FC vs Philadelphia Union: Will TFC Get Up To No Good?

      Winning streak!  Well, they won – that’s the start of a streak, right?  Toronto FC are heading into west Philadelphia (OK Chester) to do some chillin’ out, maxin’ – maybe even relaxin’ all cool – shooting some footballs and hopefully not getting schooled by a couple of guys from the neighbourhood. Only two more…

  • The Vocal Minority Banner Idea – An Alternative TIFO Competition For The Discerning Cynic

    You know what they almost say: “mockery is the most sincere form of flattery.” And really, when a club like TFC does so much to make the world a mockable place, it is The Vocal Minority’s role – some would say our moral duty – to lead the likeminded through gales of laughter into a…

  • MASCOT HYSTERIA: Kickeroo v Sammy the Shrimp

    Y’all ready for fluff? It’s time again for two of the football world’s finest purveyors of plush to do battle in the one and only – Mascot Hysteria! He may have had the most frightening face and smoothest crotch of any Mascot Hysteria challenger but the Brazilian beast known as Tigrao was no match for…

  • THE STARTING 11: Proposed BMO Field East Stand Concessions

    When not pretending that they aren’t remodeling BMO Field with the Argos in mind, MLSE continues to beaver away on the multi-million dollar stadium expansion. With only a year remaining before the stadium goes from “soccer specific” to “soccer first” to “soccer also”, the first phase is nearly ready and TFC fans will be the…

    The South Couch Report : Orlando v Toronto

    Bath salts! I’ve figured out how we’re going to get a 3 hour break tonight. Let’s get some of the locals at few bags and then let them sit front row. Mayhem ensues and when this game wraps up at 12:07 EDT, Toronto gets a 1-1 draw. So keys to victory are : 1) supporter…
