THE STARTING 11: Other Legacies Tim Leiweke Could Leave Behind
If God forbid you ever get the news that you have one year left to live, immediately go out and promise everyone you meet you’ll buy them a beer in 366 days. People will think you’re a pretty righteous dude at the time and once they eventually find out there’s nothing but an empty, broken glass waiting you’ll be long gone and won’t care.

Toronto FC vs. Portland Timbers: Black Is The New Plaid
As happens, well, pretty much every season since 2007, the miserable news off the pitch is once again overshadowing the miserable news on the pitch at BMO Field.

Aw Man, Why Always Us? – Jozy Altidore Out 4-5 Weeks With Hamstring Strain
Well this couldn’t happen at a worse time. We all know that Jozy was injured in the game on Saturday night in Foxborough. Everyone groaned as the curse of playing the New England Revolution seemed to have struck again as Jozy signalled to be pulled off, pointing to his hamstring.
