Toronto FC vs DC United: TFC Need A Strong Effort To Stave Off A Surging DCU Side

Toronto FC vs DC United ~ 730pm ET ~ BMO Field ~ TSN4 Will today be the same as the last few?  Another draw, more points lost and that coveted home playoff game still not settled?  If this was the DC United of a month ago, then I’d feel more confident in saying no, that TFC would finally get a win during this end of season homestand and solidify that home playoff match.

Toronto FC vs Philadelphia Union ~ 5pm ET ~ BMO Field ~ TSN2 This preview is a weird one for me to write given this is the match that I deliberately miss each year (click here for the reason why if you aren’t already aware), but such is blogger/podcaster life and my other job – other than podcast wrangler – is to write the previews, so here we go.

THE STARTING 11: Reasons Why There Is No Starting 11

The Starting 11. It’s a feature that I have been writing faithfully and on a (mostly) weekly basis since 2009 – first on a little site called The Yorkies and now here. All in all, that’s about 3,850 quips about TFC that have drawn people to these sites in the dozen.
