Vocal Minority: Facts, Frivolity, Football

  • South Stand Report : Toronto v Montreal

    The magic of the Ex. What used to be a cultural festival and a major part of any calendar is just an endless advertising festival.  Good thing I can escape it and find refuge in BMO Field where the ball is brought to me by a shipping company, the bench is brought to me by…

  • Toronto FC vs Montreal Impact: Playoffs, Pride and the Polar Express

    Ooh it’s Rivalry Week in MLS and of course that means Toronto FC take on the Montreal Impact (Sat. Aug 29, 4pm, BMO Field, TSN) in the second of their three meetings this year.  Games between TFC and the Impact are always highly charged affairs and with playoff hopes and potentially jobs on the line…

    Episode 102 – 15/08/26 #synonymToastCrunch

    The gang is in full attendance for this recording (though not necessarily for the game) as they review the thrashing of Orlando, talk about Voyageurs Cup, and some CNE malarkey. In this episode, Kristin breaks Tony with an engineering conundrum of a culinary proportions, Duncan confuses his lions and Mark laments the lack of Vic…

  • MLS Wins and Losses: Week 25

    As always, this will be available to listen to, with interruptions, non sequiturs and ridiculous impersonations as part of the Vocal Minority Podcast, coming out later this week. Some entertaining, star studded and or important games in MLS this week, but we’ll start with probably the most important, Chicago vs Colorado. Two teams at the…

  • THE STARTING 11: Positives of Orlando City Visiting Twice In One Month

    Oh Major Leagues of Soccer. We love the way you take a schedule, put it in a blender with a banana, puree for 30 seconds then pour generously over a blank sheet of paper. It’s this magical medley of fixture fondling that saw league new boys Orlando City pay not one ­ but two visits to BMO Field…

  • South Couch Report – Toronto v Orlando

    Well well well, look who’s on the bench. Much to my surprise (yay!) is Jozy Altidore and (whuh?) Joe Bendik.  One of these makes complete sense, and the other is Joe Bendik.  He’s been hung out to dry over the last few games, and surely he can’t be held responsible?  But what do I know.…

  • VMP Records Presents: “Cog Rats” by Young Tucci

    While a disaster on the pitch, the Sporting KC game produced what could only be described as a series of deranged ideas that we followed like a podcasting verion of Alice down a rabbit hole of insanity.  It all began as a hilarious series of big screen typos and names, and then quickly morphed into…

  • Toronto FC vs Orlando City SC: Statement game for Vanney, TFC.

    9 Wins, 6 ties and 9 defeats, 33 points and sitting comfortably in a playoff place with games in hand. Such was TFC’s position last season after 24 games, and in ‘a results based business’ as Tim Bezbatchenko said and faithful reporters dutifully reported and argued, that was more than reason enough for Ryan Nelsen to…

  • MLS Wins and Losses: Week 24

    Yeah, this is very late, I’m forgetful, so maybe you’ve already listened to this in this week’s podcast, if not, what the hell are you waiting for.  Anyway, it’s all old news now, but at the very least scroll down for the Kaka tantrum.  Well the theme for this year’s Voyageurs Cup is set. We’ve…

  • Soccer United Fan Council : Ask for my $0.02, get $7.88 instead

    One of the many marketing arms of Major League Soccer is a panel called Soccer United Fan Council.  Their purpose can be summed up by this bit of malarkey: This is an exclusive online community where you can share valuable opinions, ideas, and experiences with Major League Soccer (MLS) to help us better serve you…

Work in progress…
