Episode 482 – 24/02/20 #DoIHaveToClickAllThoseLinks
The gang is mostly here with FC Cincinnati and Columbus Crew correspondent (FCC&CCc) Mike Hudson to talk some TFC preseason, preview the MLS season and their first match against FC Cincinnati, talk a lot of kits (sorry, not sorry), ref union discussions, #CanWNT in the Gold Cup, and a bunch of other stuff and malarkey.…

Toronto FC vs Orlando City SC: With the Lions in Freefall, Can TFC Take Advantage?
Toronto FC vs Orlando City SC ~ 8pm ET ~ Orlando City Stadium ~ TSN4 The last time Toronto and Orlando met, I wrote this – TFC did indeed beat the Lions but their season hasn’t looked much brighter in the intervening two months. There was the win over the Union, and a couple of not…

Toronto FC vs Orlando City SC: Is This The Start of TFC’s Climb Out of The Basement?
Toronto FC vs Orlando City SC ~ 8pm ET ~ BMO Field ~ TSN1/3/4/5 Is it panic time? If not now then when? Depending on what happens in the next few games will tell us when (if) that time comes – the season isn’t out of reach yet, but if Toronto can’t put forth some…

Toronto FC vs Orlando City SC: Will TFC Go Into The Gold Cup Break On A High Note?
Toronto FC vs Orlando City SC ~ Wed July 5th ~ 730pm ET ~ Orlando City Stadium ~ TSN1 Saturday night in frisky Frisco did not go as planned for Toronto FC, they were vulnerable to FC Dallas’ speedy counterattack and didn’t adjust until well into the game. It didn’t help that they were missing…

Toronto FC vs Orlando City SC: TFC Are Riding High, Can They Go Unbeaten On This Road Trip?
Toronto FC vs Orlando City SC ~ 730pm ET ~ Citrus Bowl ~ TSN4 Say what? They won again? If you didn’t get a chance to watch Saturday’s game then you missed one of TFC’s best games this year when they got a dominant – if surprising – win over the Union. Lots of goals,…

THE STARTING 11: TFC Goalkeeping Solutions
Goalkeepers. Rarely has Toronto FC had one that didn’t depart in odd or controversial circumstances. One wept while only wearing the tiniest of towels. After this season came to a close, most of us expected one of Joe Bendik or Chris Konopka to be jettisoned. So TFC scrapped them both. Ah. Ok then! The “braintrust”…

VMP Final Countdown: Number 14 – Joe Bendik
Highest Ranking: 7 Lowest Ranking: 25 Average Ranking: 14.73 EDIT: All the below was written before the announcement that Bendik’s option wasn’t picked up. Not a surprise really, I imagine he’ll pass through the first round of the waiver draft unclaimed. After that he’s got a shot at getting a job somewhere for less. Best…

Ch-Ch-Changes! Toronto FC Release Konopka, Bendik, Jackson and Apparicio
And so it begins. After yesterday’s re-signing of Justin Morrow, Toronto FC wasted little time in releasing four players and exercising contract options to thirteen others. TFC made a somewhat surprising move in releasing both Chris Konopka and Joe Bendik – the two had shared starting duties this past season and it seemed likely that…

Contest : Joe Bendik Meme
I’m going to go out on a limb here, and suggest that Toronto FC could very well be one of the most memeable teams in all of sport. The dysfunction, the quoteables, the invisible cheque-signings, Mista – the list goes on and on. In the Pulitzer-esque writing of the South Bar Report, I remember distinctly…

Toronto FC Kit And Sponsor Is (Finally) Official
It’s officially here – the new, less maple leaf strewn, still BMO sponsored Toronto FC kit is available for viewing (and of course purchasing). As is usual with things like this in MLS and TFC, the official release of the Toronto’s 2015 kit was little surprise to most, thanks to previous leaks and teases in…
