    South Couch Report : Kansas City v Toronto

    Stupid Sporting KC Wiz. Their stupid home graph paper kits and their stupid team with Dom Dwyer. So much stupid here. Toronto is in Children Mercy Park, which is a terrible name that is supposedly known as “The Blue Hell”. Any park for a kid’s mercy it probably a shade of hell. The good news…

  • Toronto FC vs Sporting KC: Will TFC Be In Heaven, Or Blue Hell?

    Sunday March 20 – TSN2 – Children’s Mercy Park – 7pm ET  Can Toronto FC’s dream start to the season continue this evening in Kansas City?  Unlikely – but then again I’d have called you crazy two weeks ago if you said that TFC would be undefeated at the moment; including a 2-0 win over…

  • THE STARTING 11: Other Things Giovinco May Have been Doing During His Goal Celebration

    Wheeeeeeeeeee! You can only assume this was the noise Sebastian Giovinco was making in his “little mouse” voice as he celebrated the opening goal vs. Red Bulls last week. And who could blame him? The wee Italian not only opened TFC’s 2016 account but continued where he left off from his record-breaking 2015 season. His…

    South Couch Report : NYC v Toronto

    Undefeated, top of the table, highly unlikely. These are all phrases used to describe Toronto FC. Today the indomitable Robins take on the only team in New York at the tiny confines of Estadio del Yankees. After stealing all the points from the only team in New Jersey, you can’t help but be a wee…

  • To beat the press, Vanney and TFC starved it.

    Fool me once, shame on me, fool me twice, won’t be fooled again. Wise words George, wise words. And yet, here I am, after TFC won their season opener away from home for the 3rd year in a row and feeling good. In fact, feeling much better about TFC’s prospects for the year than I…

  • THE STARTING 11: “X”-themed TFC Season Branding

    Roman numerals – IV out of V emperors agree, they are number I. Like innumerable film sequels, TFC’s seasons have usually been tagged with their respective 2000 year-old numeral but MLSE often takes it further. Remember “Season FiVe”? Et tu hilarious! Well with the tenth season upon us, the time is ripe for a great…
